Automatic weather tweets

[mbliek]

Hi all,

Got since today a bash script that runs every hour to tweet the weather at my place.

https://twitter.com/HetWeerInHem

Wind speed and direction are now in the script.

Here's the script:

tweet.sh

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

thermo=`curl "http://10.0.1.109:8080/json.htm?type=devices&rid=156"`
echo $thermo > /home/pi/domoticz/scripts/weather.txt
temperature=`cat /home/pi/domoticz/scripts/weather.txt | awk -F: '{print $13, $14}' | awk '{print $3}' | sed 's/\"//g'`

hygro=`curl "http://10.0.1.109:8080/json.htm?type=devices&rid=156"`
echo $hygro > /home/pi/domoticz/scripts/weather.txt
hygro=`cat /home/pi/domoticz/scripts/weather.txt | awk -F: '{print $14, $15}' | awk '{print $3}' | sed 's/\"//g'`

rain=`curl "http://10.0.1.109:8080/json.htm?type=devices&rid=122"`
echo $rain > /home/pi/domoticz/scripts/weather.txt
rain=`cat /home/pi/domoticz/scripts/weather.txt | awk -F: '{print $24, $25}' | awk '{print $3}' | sed 's/\"//g' | sed 's/,//g'`

wind=`curl "http://10.0.1.109:8080/json.htm?type=devices&rid=384"`
echo $wind > /home/pi/domoticz/scripts/weather.txt
dir=`cat /home/pi/domoticz/scripts/temperatur.txt | awk -F: '{print $11, $12}' | awk '{print $3}' | sed 's/\"//g' | sed 's/,//g'`
speed=`cat /home/pi/domoticz/scripts/temperatur.txt | awk -F: '{print $24, $25}' | awk '{print $3}' | sed 's/\"//g' | sed 's/,//g'`

Twitter script is from borrowed (removed by GDPR request)
Only added the weather part.

Could you add this to the wiki?

[mbliek]

Will do

[mbliek]

Done, hope it is good enough

http://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Automatic_Weather_Tweets

[antwan]

Perfect!

[mbliek]

Added wind to the script, wiki and first post are updated

[elythomaslumber]

Hi,

unfortunately something will not work and maybe someone has an idea.
The script is running well with all the successfully messages as shown in the wiki.
But I cannot see any tweet. Then I changed the password in the script and that doesn't change anything. All the sucess messages again...

Regards

Hardy

Are you using the correct username (singed up email address) and password?

Could you post your script here?

[elythomaslumber]

Here's my code and yes the correct eMail and password (I tried with 2 accounts):

Just copied and paste your code and filled in my credentials.
I just got a tweet on my twitter page, so the script must be correct.

[mbliek]

See: https://twitter.com/HetWeerInHem

[elythomaslumber]

Thank for feedback!

Is there maybe any additional debian package necessary on my Raspi?

and...can you check your cookie?...

[mbliek]

try to add -k in the curl command when the script is trying to login to twitter etc.
Do it for every step.

curl -k -s -b "cookie.txt" -c "cookie.txt"

[elythomaslumber]

No success...sorry.
Meanwhile I tried on a second Rapsi and the same again.

I will do the changes on the second and try again.

[mbliek]

Here is my cookie btw:

[elythomaslumber]

OK, thanks. I tried with the -k also on my second Raspi without success.

The only difference I see in the cookie is the last line. Does not tell me anything but looks ok for me.

The strange thing is as I said is that using a wrong password does not have any effect on the messages I get in Putty...


Think for today it's enough.... I will try again tomorrow . Maybe someone else will give feedback if it works for him or has the same problems like me.

Thanks a lot!

[elythomaslumber]

Ok, did one more try:

I used the first URL from the script: https://mobile.twitter.com/session and I landed on a login page which was "locked" with "CAPTCHA" (We want to get sure that you are human...)
Could that be a problem? It's written in German language. Are the Twitter login pages ...mobile... different from those in the Netherlands and it's not possible to login from a script?

[mbliek]

I don't get CAPTCHA when going to that page. Just a login form.

[elythomaslumber]

Then I think this is the problem...so no twittering by a machine in Germany

Thanks for your help!

regards

Hardy
