core: wwlln not working so far

Home Assistant release with the issue: 0.96.0 Last working Home Assistant release (if known): never (new integration) Operating environment (Hass.io/Docker/Windows/etc.): Hass.io Component/platform: wwlln Description of problem: I tried wwlln as soon as it was available on dev (think it was 0.96.0b0 when I first tried). I have never got a new entitiy or see any lightning event on the map which is shown as extra map when you integrate wwlln. I integrated wwlln via configuration.yaml and also tried with the integrations in GUI. It doesn’t worked when there were lightnings near my home and even if I configure 10.000 km as radius and check on wwlln website, if there are lightnings anywhere in the radius, they will not be shown on that map. Even I cannot find any wwlln string in the log, but I enabled debug log level. Strange… Problem-relevant configuration.yaml entries and (fill out even if it seems unimportant): use GUI integration, but this when I tried with configuration.yaml:


wwlln:
    radius: 10000
    latitude: xx.xx
    longitude: xx.xx

Traceback (if applicable): not available

Additional information: Tried it on 0.96.0b0, 0b1, 0b2 and even on 0.96.0

Thunderstorm above me now and I’m facing similar problems, actually. I think the issue is that the WWLLN data isn’t real-time and I’m enforcing a way-too-small window (especially if you use the GUI to configure); this is probably causing gaps between when WWLLN reports data and when the HASS integration refreshes.

Going to experiment with expanding the window by default and see if that helps. More to come.
