[SOLVED] Get sunrise and sunset time from domoticz

[zavjah]

Hi there,

I'd like to show the sunrise and sunset time that is shown e.g. on the dashboard or in the settings in in a virtual device. I've tried to calculate the time out of sunriseInMinutes but it results in a diferent time than in domoticz. I assume it is because of the location I've set in domoticz.

Thx for any hints,
Zavjah

Is this where you are looking for?
Where you need to devices (Sunset and Sunrise)
Found the code on the forum, all credits to Waaren (viewtopic.php?t=26677)

Code: Select all

-- dzVents version >= 2.4.7
return {
    timer     =   { "at 00:03", "at 06:03" }, -- twice a day to be sure and 3 min past the hour because at the hour already quite busy 
     
    execute = function( dz )
        local function minutes2time(minutes)   -- integer in; string out 
            local hour      = string.format("%02d",math.floor(minutes / 60))
            local minutes   = string.format("%02d",minutes - (hour * 60))
            return (hour .. ":" .. minutes) --  string out 
        end
        
        dz.devices("Sunset").updateText("Sunset: " .. minutes2time(dz.time.sunsetInMinutes).. "\nCivil twilight end: " .. minutes2time(dz.time.civTwilightEndInMinutes or "-"))
        dz.devices("Sunrise").updateText("Sunrise: ".. minutes2time(dz.time.sunriseInMinutes).. "\nCivil twilight start: " .. minutes2time(dz.time.civTwilightStartInMinutes or "-"))
    end
}

Or have a look on this link, a lot of time options

Hi there,

thx hoeby, thx waaren, that's exactly what I was looking for. It seems my converion of minutes into hours was wrong, that's why i got different times than shown on dashboard.

Cheers,
zavjah
