Hello,

I am just learning and I think I have grasped the concept explained in the wiki about Push Services. I have tried FTP Dashboard Example and it works fine.

Excuse my ignorance if I am wrong but this is how I see it.

1. You can make a template with all the fancy table formatting as long as it has the variables like the example.
2. Meteobridge loads this template from wherever it is stored, maybe my own server space rather than the location in the example.
3 Meteobridge reads the template and populates the variables with the data it gets from the weather station.
4. Once populated, Metobridge makes a copy and calls it dashboard.html or whatever name you choose, then uploads the file via ftp to the server.

Am I close to the mark or way off target?

Colin

Sorry, I must have posted in the wrong forum

Hi Colin.

In my opinion you're quite right.
Ftp reads a template file and uploads a populated version of the template to the designated destination at a specified interval.
In Leuventemplate (and others) it works by putting the tags in a file and the template reads this file so the data is updated on the template/website.
Realtime upload is done by http upload, where the desired tags are filled in and uploaded at a specific interval.

Hello wsNoordbergum,

Thanks for the reply. I can experiment making my own template now.
