Re: New OpenWeatherMap and VisualCrossing weather forecast scripts available

Looks like a bit of bad data from the VisualCrossing JSON "stations": { "EGHH": { "distance": 22268.0, "latitude": 50.78, "longitude": -1.83, "useCount": 0, "id": "EGHH", "name": "EGHH", "quality...

Re: Incorrect tag values display on website

The cache file USNO-moondata.txt is not used/created by the current get-USNO-sunmoon.php since the USNO discontinued their API a couple of years ago, and have only now restarted publishing it (but with a different JSON format and query structure). The get-USNO-sunmoon.php forces a calculation to be ...

Re: Incorrect tag values display on website

Those values come from Cumulus, but are overwritten by code in ajax-dashboard to use date_sun_info() time, and your lat/long. In CU-defs.php there is $sunrise = $WX['sunrise']; $sunset = $WX['sunset']; $moonrise = $WX['moonrise']; $moonset = $WX['moonset']; and your CUtags.php?sce=dump shows $WX['su...

Re: Incorrect tag values display on website

It looks like you added those (Daylength, Tomorrow's Daylength) to the stock ajax-dashboard. The issue is that the Daylength is a time in hh:mm format, and the tomorrowdaylength is a string with embeded time in it .. you can't feed that through the fixup_time() function (which is expecting only a st...

New OpenWeatherMap and VisualCrossing weather forecast scripts available

It's been a busy late Jan/early Feb with coding to add two more sources for international, multilingual forecasts: OpenWeatherMap (https://openweathermap.org) and VisualCrossing (https://visualcrossing.com). Both provide limited-use free API keys available. Both providers only give one daily icon pe...

Re: New PW-forecast.php script for international/multilingual forecasts

As you likely know, after Apple bought DarkSky, the ability to get new DarkSky API keys vanished, and the API itself is soon to be withdrawn from availability. Fortunately, a PhD student has cobbled together an API using public weather data (GFS, GEFS, HRRR) on Amazon Web Services and is offering a...

Re: New PW-forecast.php script for international/multilingual forecasts

Just did a small update of PW-forecast.php to V2.51 of the script to automatically set the timeline display to ampm or 24hr time based on $timeFormat/$SITE['timeFormat']. (If the time format has 'g', then am/pm is used, otherwise 24hr time is used). Available on the script page, the Template update ...

Re: Webtag pages ready for review

I've been busy. I've added the missing tags from the current WebTags.txt to the Wiki (and documented where each tag came from in the comments with each update). Now my https://saratoga-weather.org/CUMXutil/check-wiki.php checking script shows: Comparing Wiki to WebTags list .. 0 Wiki entries not in ...

Re: Webtag pages ready for review

Mark, I consider the CUMX WebTags.txt is the authoritative source for available tags.

We should strive to document all the available tags in the Wiki, and remove/correct tags in the Wiki that are not supplied by CUMX.

Re: Webtag pages ready for review

Ok, a more through version of the parsing PHP script and the lists are much smaller and likely more accurate.

I've been developing the script on localhost, so it's not quite available online, but I will post it.

Hi Hans, I created a small PHP script to scrape the webtags definitions from https://www.cumuluswiki.org/a/Full_list_of_Webtags and compare/contrast to the WebTags.txt file generated by CUMX 2.22.3 (build 3214). I've attached the preliminary results and hope you find it helpful. I do note that some ...

That's great! I'd be pleased to let you host the wiki. I'll send a PM and we can get started.
