exponential_moving_average

A simple exponential moving average over the last few values. It can be used to have a short update interval on the sensor but only push out an average on a specific interval (thus increasing resolution).

Configuration variables:

• alpha (Optional, float): The forget factor/alpha value of the filter. A higher value includes more details in the output while a lower value removes more noise. Defaults to 0.1.
• send_every (Optional, int): How often a sensor value should be pushed out. Defaults to 15.
• send_first_at (Optional, int): By default, the very first raw value on boot is immediately published. With this parameter you can specify when the very first value is to be sent. Defaults to 1.
