🦋 hpisensor(1) — the OpenHPI sensor-peeping bestie 🎀

okay so real quick, the manual name is OpenHPI and this page is hpisensor(1) — that's the tl;dr before we even start 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

hpisensor — this sample openhpi application displays sensor info for all resources with Sensor Capability. literally its whole personality 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

hpisensor [-D nn] [-N host[:port]] [-C <cfgfile>] [-t -r -s -X -h] [-E epath]
hpisensor [--domain=nn] [--host=host[:port]] [--cfgfile=file]
          [--threshold --range --eventstate --debug --help] [--entity-path="epath"]

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So hpisensor displays sensor info for all resources with Sensor Capability. that's the vibe, that's the job, no cap ✨

The option -E (entity-path) restricts the output on the specified entity-path — like, it zooms in on just that one path, okay? 🎀

And if no domain or host is selected, hpisensor uses the default domain as specified in the openhpiclient.conf file. default behavior, iconic of it honestly 💅
