Need help with getting info from a string with live rain website

[kooy 5]

Hope you guys can help me.

 

I found a website that can give you realtime rain info on a specific lat and long values.

 

It can predict rain in your area upto 2 hours upfront.

 

now my only trouble is how to get the right info from the website.

 

As it stand now im getting info like this

 

000|20:50 000|20:55 000|21:00 000|21:05 000|21:10 000|21:15 000|21:20 000|21:25 000|21:30 000|21:35 000|21:40 000|21:45 000|21:50 000|21:55 000|22:00 000|22:05 000|22:10 000|22:15 000|22:20 000|22:25 000|22:30 000|22:35 000|22:40 000|22:45 000|22:50

 

where 000 is the amount of rain and timestamp (lucky me no rain at least till 22:50)

 

What i would like is to get the info only for the next 15 minutes.

so if my local time 21:15 i would like to get the info for 21:30 which looks like 000|21:30

 

How to get the 000 part out of the string at 21:30?

 

i tried

str = string.match(response, "21:10")

fibaro:debug(str)

but that only get the me right time and i need the 3 chars before that.

@Twannie Sorry, I don’t use a HC2, so I don’t have and know the VD. Yes changing the code. 
 

In the VD you have, somewhere the URL will be. And not the whole URL 

Please login or register to see this link.

 but probably only this part 

Please login or register to see this link.

 (I think) 
 

That has to be replaced with the new URL. 
 

I have got my QuickApp working, so there is hope for the VD.

The URL only states "gpsgadget.buienradar.nl"

I changed the URL (see the response data, still getting an error

12-Aug 16:22:19 : buienradar: 0

Did you put an extra http in front of it?

[Twannie 33]

I made the URL correction, now another error:

12-Aug 16:28:39 : buienradar: 0

Just now, SmartHomeEddy said:

No, the code does but 

The URL is working now but still the error

status:301

[SmartHomeEddy 1,005]

Still   HTTP 301 Moved Permanently

 

It has to be https. Somewhere in the code http is put in front of it. Can you find it?

 

Almost there ?

that was only the log... this is the code important... there is noh http put in front

 

local url = "br-gpsgadget.azurewebsites.net" --"gpsgadget.buienradar.nl";

BR = Net.FHttp(url,80);
log("https://"..url.."/data/raintext?lat="..lattitude.."&lon="..longitude)

 local response, status, err = BR:GET("/data/raintext?lat="..lattitude.."&lon="..longitude);

It should be something like this.

no error but it doesnt seems running right.

But every 5 min. same rule comes without error

Copy - Paste ?

 

Sometimes the Buienradar site doesn’t give an answer, but it should work once. 

[Twannie 33]

I can copy and paste this into the loop?

Do I need to make global variabeles?

 

With your code I get this but the VD still shows "error getting data"

12-Aug 17:09:57 : Global variable VD_Buienrad_1198 created
12-Aug 17:09:57 : buienradar: 0
12-Aug 17:09:57 :

and the last field is showing "âš "

[SmartHomeEddy 1,005]

I don’t know what source you are using now. I would save the current source code in a text somewhere and paste the new one and see what is does. 
 

But I like to live dangerously ?

I thought this version makes the global himself

I got VD_Buienrad_557 in my globals.

 

But it's a long time ago so you have to test is and check it out.

 

But i have to go pick up my kids now. Think you on the right track now

[Twannie 33]

the last reply is from your code pasted

I noticed it did create a variabele but no predefined variabele... a normal variabele cannot contain a table right?

[SmartHomeEddy 1,005]

@Twannie

 

Now wait until rain?

 

(maybe change your lat and lon to where rain is expected)

[Twannie 33]

Yes, I will see what will happen, but the VD still shows "error getting data"

If the prediction is right we will get rain tonight.

thanks for now @SmartHomeEddy
