Buienradar Weather Lookup Plugin

[schulpr]

Hi ffes,

I hope you can find some time to implement the other available weather data soon. I think it's very stable.

<zichtmeters>39000</zichtmeters>
<windstotenMS>13.8</windstotenMS>
<zonintensiteitWM2>292</zonintensiteitWM2>

Thanks for all your work!

And when it stops working, what is shown in the log? Do you see the plugin's log lines appear?

I just released a new version of my Buienradar plugin. This uses the new Settings dictionary that was added to the Python plugin in recent betas. So before you upgrade to this version of the Buienradar plugin be sure to have the latest beta of Domoticz.

So for new users there is zero configuration to get the plugin running initially.

It works for me now, is it hard or possible to get data from buienradar.be also?

That seems not possible. I use http://xml.buienradar.nl to get the weather information. http://xml.buienradar.be doesn't work, so there is no data to use for me.

Also notice that things they provide on http://www.buienradar.be/overbuienradar ... uw-website is much smaller then http://www.buienradar.nl/overbuienradar ... uw-website. Maybe multiple requests from various Belgian users will help them to bring those features to Belgium as well.

Beta 3.6863
Rpi 3b

Today I installed the plugin. After selecting it in the hardware menu, it said the devices are added to the devices tab. Unfortunately they aren't. Am I missing something?

When trying to restart domoticz I get the following

root@DiskStation:/volume3/@appstore/domoticz/plugins/buienrader# sudo service domoticz.sh restart
sudo: service: command not found

Stopping and restarting from Synology panel didn't help either

Running on Synology 6.1

What do you see in the log? Did you try to filter the devices based on the name you gave on the hardware page?

I get error "Error: Buienradar hardware (21) thread seems to have ended unexpectedly" in the log. I used the filter.

Pfff, I have never seen that before. I don't think it is something I can do much about. A script should not be able to end a thread that way, I would think.

Do you run the latest beta of domoticz? Could you restart domoticz and look at the logs?

Yep, running latest beta. Already restarted Domoticz and pi. Sonos plugin is running normal.

I reinstalled the plugin and reconfugured it in Domoticz. It stated again the hardware is created and devices added. I got the following errors in the log:

Code: Select all

there is a problem with the library the plugin uses - in your error code you see /plugins/Buienradar - if you do a

Code: Select all

git clone

you get /plugins/domoticz-buienradar, this discrepancy can also be read in the Readme.md in Git

Code: Select all

1.In your domoticz/plugins directory do

cd domoticz/plugins
git clone https://github.com/ffes/domoticz-buienradar.git

2.Alternatively you can download the latest version from https://github.com/ffes/domoticz-buienradar/archive/master.zip and unzip it. Then create a directory on your Domoticz device in domoticz/plugins named buienradar and transfer all the files to your device.

So - if you use the 2nd method the plugin should work.
@ffes should update git to get the modules in /plugins/Buienradar to let this work via git - my choice of method btw
I created an issue in Git to address this

[RayAmsterdam]

Thanks! I missed the files.

[Derik]

mmm

Is there a how to for plugins?

Not sure which version of the beta the Settings were added, but I know in 3.6839 they were available. At the moment the latest beta is 3.6882. So please upgrade to the latest beta and that will most likely solve your issue.

No sorry. Don't own a Synology so can't really help you. There has to be a way to restart a service without restarting the entire device though.

[EdwinK]

Thanks. I hope someone here will have a Synology and will answer.
