Adding Withing Scale via IFTTT

[felix63]

Although Withing has an API making the data from the scale available I found the following very simple yet effective.

Make a virtual sensor with type scale:

Code: Select all

http://IPADDRESS:8080/json.htm?type=createvirtualsensor&idx=29&sensortype=93

Make a recipe (replace IP address, user, password and idx):

IF Withings New Body Scale measurement by user THEN Maker Make a web request.

URL:

Code: Select all

http://user:password@EXTERNALIP:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=100&nvalue=0&svalue={{WeightKg}}

METHODE: get
TYPE: application/json
BODY: empty

Every time I step on the scale (with a significant delay, but who cares) the script is triggered and the sensor is updated.

Enjoy..

mmm great news have a scale to...
Only i do have 1 login....
For multiple user?


Please some more info?
I do not understand your methode?

Where do i have to place ....

I have been working on a Python script which pulls the CO2 and temperature data from the Withings site (not available through official api) and commits it directly to the Domoticz DB so original date/time is kept. Note that due to way the scale syncs its data there is a minimal delay of 14 hours. WS-50 only.

If anyone is interested let me know so I can refine the script a bit for wider use.

Hi Dynasticorpheus,

I'm seriously interested in a python script for Air quality and weight.
Thanks! Keep up the good work!

dynasticorpheus - I'd appreciate getting getting some more details on your script, can you PM me?

[javaboon]

I would love the script also

[dynasticorpheus]

Ok let me work on it a bit more and make it suited for wider usage. Will report back.

[dynasticorpheus]

The first version of the script is now available via github, let me know if it also works for you guys. Be smart and make a backup of your DB before doing anything else first!

As we are writing to the DB directly note that any issues from this should not be addressed to the domoticz devs!

There is a --noaction option which allows for a dry-run to confirm if everything works as expected before doing any actual update to the DB. I would also recommend to do the initial update (potentially a lot of data hence blocking the DB for other writes) whilst domoticz is not running.

Hi!

Thanks!!!
I'm trying to get it to work.
This is the output, is this normal?

This was the first run with --noaction. Is it safe to run without -n? Sorry im kinda new
And what do you mean with the initial update?

Thanks for your work!

[dynasticorpheus]

With initial update I mean the first time you run it against the 2 (empty!) meters. As it cannot find any entries yet it will try to update the meter will all data available from the website. If successful, any run after that will only download data from the website that is not in the DB yet.

I would keep the --noaction until you get some sensible data before running it without this option however as long as it's updating with 0 measurements it still would not write to the DB anyway. Once you get more than 0 measurements you can remove the --noaction option.

Your output shows it is downloading data newer than 2016-02-05 22:35:00 so I wonder if the meters are cleared of all data before trying? My first suggestion would be to either clear the meters you are now using from all data or create 2 new ones.

Sorry for my ignorance but by clearing the 2 meters, i assume you mean the virtual sensors in domoticz? I did not clear anything yet..
I did not have to change anything in the script itself, right?

Virtual sensors indeed. Creating 2 new ones would be my recommendation.

I gave the script it's own thread viewtopic.php?f=38&t=10441

[djgodlike]

I got some data on the air quality graph! It doesn't fill the temperature graph though..
Which results does it download? It downloaded data from 7-02-16 18:00 till 8-02-16 05:00.
Is it wise to make a cron script every 12 hours, or not in this stage yet?

Thanks for working on this!!

[Derik]

i will give it a next try...

Only where in domoticz can i ad a scale.??
Or what type of sensor i need?

[manuloup]

Hi,

I just ordered a ws-50 today. I will give it a try too

Thanks,

Manu

My first option was to add the weight....
The Co etc.. is my second..
