Weather34 TEMPLATE

[weatherist34]

Something different and if there is interest ...

1.Do you own a Apple Watch ?
2.Would you like notifications sent from your weather station ?
3.What notifications would you deem as worthy ?
a.Rain ?
b.High Temp i.e what would you deem as exceptional ?
b1.Freezing Temp i.e what would you deem as exceptional ?
c.Air Quality i.e 100 +
d.Wind Speed again an exceptional value
e. Lightning Strike nearby ?
f. Heat Index/Humidity etc

im running two of these Lightning and Rain the notification is hourly not minutes simply strikes can get too frequent when intense, rain tip can be too frequent if intense.

these notifications come direct from the template script and simply interacts with IFTTT .notifications can be disabled in setup screen.

so food for thought but preferably if there is interest I can implement and you need to be familiar with IFTTT setup which is not something I can do from this end .

I have not had any rain for 40 days now so I only have a screenshot of lightning its straightforward no frills just a simple notification.

one day there will be a balance between safari/firefox etc never can fathom why they render things so differently .anyway ive just updated the update file so download it again and run it .many thanks and added language translate value for heat index..screenshot

in firefox(ps your GitHub name you sent/gave does not exist so I cant add you to private access privialege )

Wow, thanks for the fast fix

Gitname "TurboDuke77" you can not add?

NanoSD sends me push messages during heavy rain to my iPhone/watch, I use the service pushover.net

Ok sent you invite for some reason I had TurboDuke ..

Also other users please note and its not a personal thing but this template does not support Ecowitt or other similar brands , simple reason is I don't own one and simply no understanding of how it or they work , I see many different variations of sensor arrays, combinations that is just is way beyond me to actually compile anything reliably without actually having it in front of me . I have been down that road before supporting multiple hardware, software and so on and its very time consuming , often lots of errors , lots of hanging around waiting for input and so on .

My advice to anyone with Ecowitt or similar brands is to use some other template that supports the various configurations .Im not interested in popularity or financial gain, donations and all other means just trying to design something that I can manage and be responsive in terms of fixing things, supporting and simply give users with some basic understanding to contribute ideas so slowly add those ideas on but start throwing multiple sensor configurations at me then I'll hide and go into hibernation .

To me this is just an hobby nothing else I just happen to have been using CSS using in web design since late 1999 and continued following CSS changes monthly and often introduce those in this template when browsers play catch up and support the newer variables.

for example css variable like using a color base hsla

--dark-caption: hsla(200, 4%, 27%, 0.429);

I can use the string --dark-caption anywhere in the css file without having to remember color formats, numbers etc
it would be like

background:--dark-caption;
text-background:--dark-caption;

couldn't do that 3 years ago with all browser support ! it saves hours and hours ..Brian

Brian,

I would be interested in the Apple Watch notifications. As you know, the Lightning alerts will come through via WeatherFlow, but they do not limit the number of notifications. So, having the alerts come from the template script sounds great.

High Temperature, Heat Index, Wind and Freeze would be good. I think, we would have to be able to adjust some of the extreme values, manually, based on location. For instance, heat index values of 103 F are common, in out area this time of the year. It would probably be a lot of trouble for you to build that in to a setup, but I would be fine with just editing a script.

Best wishes!

ok chuck i can add simple upper lower threshold limits in the setup screen along with a simple yes or no to use watch notifications.wont be anytime soon though im off again i think there is an imminent lockdown coming ,daily cases are rising again here we were sub 950 for quite a while ,quite an unexpected hike came we are up at 1090 last 24 hours and seeing reports of increased hospital fill. so im travelling probably this weekend to avoid the bureaucracy again.

toto i looked at pushover a while ago for some reason i thought it was paid service ?

yes, are $5 USD one-time purchase. I thought it was fair, for me.

Hi Brian,

Apple Watch notifications sounds good. Sorry to hear about the spike. Our area was a Hotspot for a couple of months, but it is slowing down now.

I think, Pushover is just a one-time purchase of the app - $5.00 US.

Take care.

Chuck

[weatherist34]

ok well something for the near future to dive into . will need to look at the pushover api and try it out .

best way forward see how much interest there is .. one good thing about a apple watch cant remember last time i used my phone to answer a call.. .

sorry i mistyped the spike new cases went above 1k 1090 not 1900 . misinformation is dangerous..have a great day .

Hi Brian,
1) Yes, 2) Yes, and 3) Yes to all.

Cheers.

NanoSD sends me push messages during heavy rain to my iPhone/watch, I use the service pushover.net

Can you post your code for this, please? It would be good to experiment whilst Brian considers the best way to integrate this or some alternative Apple Watch notification process.

Cheers

If you have an account with pushover, then you also have your own e-mail address from pushover. In the Meteobridge you can have an email sent to your pushover address when certain events occur and you will receive a push message on your mobile phone or watch.

Excellent. Cheers.

I've got the following working for Pushover using the API. I created a pushoverTemp.php file with this code:

Code: Select all

<?php include('livedata.php');?>
<?php
curl_setopt_array($ch = curl_init(), array(
  CURLOPT_URL => "https://api.pushover.net/1/messages.json",
  CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => array(
    "token" => "<my_api_app_token>",
    "user" => "<my_user_token>",
    "title" => "JMFweather.uk Alert",
    "message" => "Temperature: ".$weather["temp"].$weather["temp_units"].".",
  ),
  CURLOPT_SAFE_UPLOAD => true,
  CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
));
curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
?>

This does the job sending the current temperature to my Apple Watch. Now I need to consider how to make it work on alarms!

good stuff jason , but dont go too far with it i have a one file solution basically if a criteria is met example

if temp> 30 fire pushover api
if windspeed > 50 fire pushover api

and so on basically similar to what posted but compiles all criterias into one file and with a setup option to use pushover or ifttt or none.. the best way is remove the requirements of direct editing and set the options in the setup screen so you simply enter whatever your pushover or ifttt credentials are like other api uses already used. anyway keep up the good work .i will hopefully have it all done early september but august a busy month , its my birthday 26th, my wifes 27th ,wedding anniversary 29th on top of that im doing a 3 week freelance design job for a company though working from home .. so keep an eye out all will come good in time..brian
