Upload gas usage to mindergas.nl [Solved]

[jvdz]

Are you running this as a DzEvents script?

[mvveelen]

Yes, I tried. But saving scripts gives me a "save error" so I prefer to use a bash script.

I also tried the slave-master construction, but I keep getting errors because I use an RPi 3B+ and a Synology with Domoticz in Docker.

It is an DzEvents script as you can see in the scriptsource, so will not work in any other way!

Hi mvveelen,

I just tested with your script, and the only thing that needs to be changed is the URL from mindergas.
This has changed. Change line 40 to https://www.mindergas.nl/api/meter_readings as the url, and it works.

As my experience with dZVents is 0,0 and the and the wiki described a version with special tools required in BASH I had to give it a small different BASH twist for 2 house holds that wanted to have this done.

Best Practices:
- No mindergas key in the main script but in separate config file.
- Needs no special tools or apt-get installs

Find the mindergas.sh here.

MM Hi..
Oud topic..
maar ik gebruikt eerst een ander script wat niet meer werkt na een nieuw armbian installatie.

Welk script werkt nu goed?
En uploaden jullie alleen gas? Of ook KWH/2 als zijnde gas, voor een wp verbruik [ de oude api ]
Nieuw is wel Kwh maar ik zoek eigen de /2 versie
En natuurlijk de kwh versie altijd welkom

I used the script from Sándor Incze because this seems to be the latest (2023) script for uploaden to Mindergas.nl. The older scripts give an arror "meterstand is geen getal"

The script from Sándor runs ok, but i get ( a simular message) "Error no value!" as result.

Does anyone has a solution?

Here is a script that should work.
jq is the ingredient that you need.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

# LET OP
# METERSTAND check your domoticz port and domoticz idx (rid) for gas
# check your mindergas token
# LET OP

#Token to authenicate with mindergas.nl
TOKEN=your token

#fetch meterstand (use jq to parse JSON object correctly)
METERSTAND=`curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8383/json.htm?type=devices&rid=16" | jq '.result[0].Counter'| tr -d '"'`

#Get OS date, and format it corectly.
NOW=$(date +"%Y-%m-%d")

#Build JSON by hand 😉
JSON='{ "date":"'$NOW'", "reading":"'$METERSTAND'" }'

#post using curl to API
curl -v -H "Content-Type:application/json" -H "AUTH-TOKEN:$TOKEN" -d "$JSON" https://www.mindergas.nl/api/meter_readings

# don't forget:
# https://ehoco.nl/stand-gasmeter-uploaden-naar-mindergas-nl/
# sudo apt install jq -y

and in crontab for a daily upload.
