I changed the name as this is a different 'kind' of plugin:
- the original netatmo is super simple, no configuration needed, it functions out-of-the-box ( but it requires updates as new sensors are added... and no configuration means also no flexibility )
- this one is more complex as it requires an initial 'long configuration' phase ( but it should support even future sensors giving you maximum flexibility )
Installation
- copy the archive in the plugins directory
- extract it, it will create the netAtmoNet directory
Configuration
- in the meteotemplate plugin setup
- insert client id, client secret and refresh token ( these are generated on the netatmo app configuration page, in the token generator scope choose at least read_station )
- click the save button and reload the page
- the page will now show all devices, modules and sensors available
- for each sensor you want to import, enable it, in MT field define the 'meteotemplate field name' ( see meteotemplate wiki ) and select a conversion if necessary

Test
To test that everything is working correctly point your browser to the following url:
url_of_your_site/template/plugins/netAtmoNet/updateNetAtmoNet.php?errors
you should see a page similar to the image below.
The warnings at point 1) are not important ( I momentarily disabled the password checking, I will reenable once everything is ok )
The part at point 2), beetween 'calling api.php' and 'exiting api.php' is important and should not contain any warnings or errors.
If part 2) contain any warnigs/error, try changing the last option ( calling api.php using curl ) from yes to no.
If this does not solve the issue, updating the api.php script to ver 3.5 should fix it
Cron job
Once everything is ok create a cron job that loads the following url:
url_of_your_site/template/plugins/netAtmoNet/updateNetAtmoNet.php?PASS=YUOR_UPDATE_PASSWORD
Alternatively if you already have a cron job that executes load/cron.php, simply copy the updateNetAtmoNet.php script to the load/crons directory and you are done

Note
In addition to sensor data the plugin setup page shows a lot of useful information on each device and module ( battery, rf signal, firmware... ).
These data will be available for the companion netAtmoNetModules block
