Yes, I even triple checked it. Just to be sure I put in the full path to the Moon.tmp file, '../var/packages/domoticz/scripts/lua/tmp/Moon.tmp', checked the permissions of that file (777). My Rain.tmp uses the same path (different file, of course) and that is working. It has to have something to do with permissions, but can't figure it out now. And since I'm now working on it for about 8 hours, going to bed, and will think more tomorrow.

Hmmm, a thought on that: have you checked the output from a direct call to Wunderground (eg.: in a putty session issueing the same command as the script would)?

This is what I get. At first I thought maybe it's because of the double '/' in the URL, but it seems to work.

That seems ok!
Remove your api key

I really think its your tempfile, it gets the data but cannot write correctly...

[EdwinK]

Would it make a change if I put the script inside the /scripts/lua folder instead of in the events tab.

[robgeerts]

Yeah or setup a cronjob

For me, on a synology a well, the latter is not an option. I can place a script there, but it does nothing...
I agree with @robgeerts that it's probably a matter of rights...
Sure you have the lua script set up like this?

good question

Also noticed that the train and traffic isn't working?

Just wanted to ask the same, my news and traffic aren't working anymore.

I think there down, just did a test with a older version and there is it also not working

Found it ( i think)

Code: Select all

.swiper-pagination-bullet 
{
	display: none !important;
    width: 8px;
    height: 8px;
    display: inline-block;
    border-radius: 100%;
    background: #000;
    opacity: .2;
}

This is working

you can put this on custom.css

    width: 0px;

Together with @robgeerts I've created the possibility to read Wunderground's moonphase data. It will be released in the upcoming version...

Great tutorial, thanks. I have one question though, how did you create the blocks beneath the moon picture? I get only 'on' instead of the tekst value.

@Rob,

1, Can you please change title order for percentage and fertility (General-Custom Sensor) type device (red arrow, blue arrow)?

Percentage:

Code: Select all

{
         "BatteryLevel" : 93,
         "CustomImage" : 0,
         "Data" : "54.00%",
         "Description" : "",
         "Favorite" : 1,
         "HardwareID" : 2,
         "HardwareName" : "Dummy",
         "HardwareType" : "Dummy (Does nothing, use for virtual switches only)",
         "HardwareTypeVal" : 15,
         "HaveTimeout" : true,
         "Image" : "Computer",
         "LastUpdate" : "2017-04-23 12:10:09",
         "Name" : "MiFlora1_moisture",
         "SubType" : "Percentage",
         "Type" : "General",
         "TypeImg" : "hardware",
         "Unit" : 1,
         "Used" : 1,
         "idx" : "41"
      },

Fertility:

Code: Select all

 {
         "Data" : "788 Fertility",
         "HardwareName" : "Dummy",
         "HardwareType" : "Dummy (Does nothing, use for virtual switches only)",
         "HardwareTypeVal" : 15,
         "Image" : "Custom",
         "LastUpdate" : "2017-04-23 12:10:09",
         "Name" : "MiFlora1_fertility",
         "SensorType" : 1,
         "SensorUnit" : "Fertility",
         "ShowNotifications" : true,
         "SubType" : "Custom Sensor",
         "Type" : "General",
         "TypeImg" : "Custom",
         "Unit" : 1,
         "Used" : 1,
         "idx" : "42"
      },

2, add missing FA icon for fertility type sensor. We should use this one.

Hello all.

Just saying this Dashticz v2.0 is really really greet to play with an looks very nice.
Mayby it is an idea to create a new post and 'show off' you Dashticz?

My question: is it also possible to alter the 'data' value or to clear it totally?

Now I am using green for home and red for away:

See custom css:

.fa.fa-female.on {color: green}
.fa.fa-female.off {color: red}

I think this would look nicer.

Great tutorial, thanks. I have one question though, how did you create the blocks beneath the moon picture? I get only 'on' instead of the tekst value.

Thanks for the compliment!
About the block beneath the moon, these are filled from the lua script. The first block is the value from idxmoonphase and the second one contains the value of idxmoonpercentage.:

Code: Select all

local idxmoonpercentage ='125'              -- Your virtual moon percentage illuminated Device ID
local idxmoonage ='131'                     -- Your virtual moon age Device ID
local idxmoonphase ='132'                   -- Your virtual moon phase Device ID
local idxmoonrise='124'                     -- Your virtual moon rise variable ID
local idxmoonset='127'                      -- Your virtual moon set variable ID

The values are stored in this part of the script:

Code: Select all

        commandArray[1] = {['UpdateDevice'] = idxmoonphase.."|0|"..moonPhase}
        commandArray[2] = {['UpdateDevice'] = idxmoonrise.."|0|"..moonriseHour..":"..moonriseMinute}
        commandArray[3] = {['UpdateDevice'] = idxmoonset.."|0|"..moonsetHour..":"..moonsetMinute}
        commandArray[4] = {['UpdateDevice'] = idxmoonage.."|0|"..age}
        commandArray[5] = {['UpdateDevice'] = idxmoonpercentage.."|0|"..percentIlluminated}

In Domoticz I've created these dummy sensors:

virtual devices.PNG (18.4 KiB) Viewed 1815 times

That's about all I had to do as far as I remember

There is however one thing to the moonphase block. By default it only shows as displayed when you name the virtual device as shown here:

Code: Select all

blocktypes.Name['Maanfase'] = { icon: 'fa fa-moon-o', title: '<Data>', value: '<Name>' }
blocktypes.Name['Moon phase'] = { icon: 'fa fa-moon-o', title: '<Data>', value: '<Name>' }
blocktypes.Name['Mondphase'] = { icon: 'fa fa-moon-o', title: '<Data>', value: '<Name>' }

Defined in blocks.js.
There is a way around this by adding this code in custom.js

Code: Select all

function getExtendedBlockTypes(blocktypes){
   blocktypes.Name['My moon phase name'] = { icon: 'fa fa-moon-o', title: '<Data>', value: '<Name>' }
   return blocktypes;
}

I hope that helps!

Wizjos

A new topic with "show off" your Dashticz v2 would be nice, BUT.....with exactly a how-to. So, if someone has something added or changed, simply write down how you did it so others can use it.

[SuperMouse]

I will start mine with some print screens and exports of the custom.css and config.js
I need to clean up the code and make some pictures first

Here it is:
Show your Dashticz v2.0 and how-to's!
