Description

I'm setting up Home Assistant and I got it reporting the on/off state of my sonoff and am able to switch it from the web interface of home assistant. I added a temp sensor on GPIO14 and I am able to see the temp/humidity on the main page of the arduino. I did notice that is publishes this temp to my MQTT server every now and then. but how do i make a publish to query for the temp/humidity?

looking in the commands under the wiki here doesn't have anything about DHT or TEMP and querying for status doesn't return the temp/humidity.

Any thoughts?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check the firmware source code for MQTT command handling to see if a request for sensor data is supported, and review the MQTT topics used for publishing temperature/humidity.
