Maximum temperate expected outside

[bowsertje 3]

I would like to safe the maximum expected outdoor temperature for today and save this in a global variable. How is this possible with LUA?

To use a variable in Lua we must declare it:

 

local myValue
myValue=20

 

Here you can find how to start with Lua:

Here you can find some examples of Lua scenes - maybe something will be useful for you:

@bowsertje IMHO safe == save

[bowsertje 3]

Thanks but how can I get the value for the max. expected outdoor temperature today. How to integrate this with LUA will not be a problem.

[10der 832]

Your word “expected” means what you should get forecast. Because you can’t get expected maximum aloe from your sensors.

so, you should call some weather forecast API for your location get from result max temperature forecast and call something like

fibaro:setGlobal(“MaxTempFC, value);

How to get weather forecast it’s not easy and I can’t provide ready for use solution right now. For example goggling by forum and find some LUA scenes for WFC for OpenWeatherMap or YR.NO (some examples has in my profile)

You're right.

There is a connection with yr.no in Fibaro, right? Any chance there is something possible for receive the max temp. forecast from yr.no ?

[10der 832]

No native methods. Fibaro hasn’t native methods for getting others parameters - only current temp current hum and current wind.

so find in my profile script for yo.no 

or I can will  provide last script here after I will reach my PC. I am outside home right now, sorry.

please ping me after ~2h

Can you help me how to get this working? Do I put both scripts into Fibaro as a scene or VD ?

Yes, i see... But ofcourse you can do that more adequately with outside temperature sensor. Or based on lumination (amount of LUX) and the temperature according to your decission rules

Enjoy automation

BTW the code of @10der is a fibaro scene

[10der 832]

1st script MUST be as scene and schedule this script for run every 1h

 

you can use weather FC data for future for any own puposes

 

2nd script is not complete. 

1) create global var

2) replace code with

and schedule this script for run at 9Am for example

 

how to scehdule scenes?

IMHO easy way use TimeBased script by @Sankotronic

here i can't help you. I am also use this script from Sank. it's easy and simple as for me

Thanks, I did create 2 scene's with the scripts in them.

Created global var and replaced code in 2nd script.

 

I did run the first script but do get this error:

Thank you @bowsertje, inspiring idea! Maybe i'll implement something like that now we have hot days and nights in Netherlands

1) are you have debug message
