Temperature Sensor (Node)

Overview

There is already a great way to get temperature readings using the DHT sensor which is supported via the Humidity sensor type. However, you may want to use temperature probes for more extreme conditions like underwater. These sensors use the OneWire bus and you need to enable support for it on the Pi.

The OneWire bus will return an object of all items on the bus keyed by their address containing their data.
