WD clientraw.txt creation

Post by verner » Sun Nov 06, 2011 2:11 pm

I have a WeatherBoxx light with an meteoplug account.
I would now like to create the clientraw.txt to be used for iPhone Weather Display Live (iWDL).
Is that possible with the WeatherBoxx light an how?

I tried to use this graphic definition for experimenting what gives a text output but iWDL won't read the URL:
timeframe=10m
res=min5

gtitle=WD-Export # name of graph
gtype=export # type of graph
glunit=_ # delimiter
grunit=%-d_%-m_%Y_%-H_%-M # date/time stamp
gtrim=1 # cut empty records at start and end

sid0=wind0 sname0=-999 ssel0=wind sfactor0=1.944 sprec0=1 # wind in kt
sid1=wind0 sname1=-999 ssel1=wind sfactor1=1.944 sprec1=1 # wind in kt
sid2=wind0 sname2=-999 ssel2=gustmax sfactor2=1.944 sprec2=1 # gust in kt
sid3=th0 sname3=-999 ssel3=temp sprec3=1 # temp
sid4=th0 sname4=-999 ssel4=hum sprec4=0 # hum
sid5=th0 sname5=-999 ssel5=dew sprec5=1 # dew
sid6=thb0 sname6=-999 ssel6=seapress sprec6=1 # sea pressure
sid7=wind0 sname7=-999 ssel7=maindir sfactor7=22.5 sprec7=0 # wind dir
sid8=rain0 sname8=-999 ssel8=total sprec8=2 sunit8=_-999_-999_-999 # rainfall


Does anyone know how to get the textfiles created and possibly uploaded to my server or how to solve this problem?

To create text files use the "template" approach.

However clientraw.txt has a lot of very specific data value requirements and it may be very difficult (or even impossible?) to define all those values using the template mechanism...
