Annual data Summary (DAJ script) - show day-of-week

CSS improved, included in updated files in post above.

NOTE: The .php page and any container you put it in should be encoded / declared as UTF-8 (NO BOM), else the wind direction arrows won't work

Minimum php container requirements: (this is powering the test page)

Code: Select all

Thank you very much Beteljuice, I've been working with this and making progress, but I am now further convinced I will never be a script author

Using your revised readDayfile I have eliminated some duplication that I had with the non-colour and colour versions along with my Cumulus and Saratoga template sites. Now only have the colour version on both. It works great in the Cumulus site http://www.komokaweather.com/weather/da ... olour1.php, however the day names do not appear/popup on the Saratoga site http://www.komokaweather.ca/wxhistorical-colour1.php. I have tried many different ways but without success. Possibly some PHP conflict with these templates

I also have experimented by adding additional data columns for Rain Rate, Max and Min Pressure, and Heat and Cool Degree days (borrowed the idea from Mark's post). Still a lot of work to do to get them right as some of the titles are wrong and some data not shown http://www.komokaweather.com/weather/datasummary2.php and I will try to understand the dayfile data to get the correct columns for the applicable data, but it has been a good assignment

Again thanks for steering me in the right direction, and I will continue along, but I will likely forget tomorrow much what I have learned today

.

Because you haven't added the datasummary stylesheet to the page
Edit: Nor have you called Jquery

Note: I've just discovered everything goes sick on Jan 1st. - hopefully it will recover !

Happy New Year !

I have updated my version to include hiding the dates that are not applicable to the current month, and fix the 1st Jan bug. Sorry beteljuice, but I have removed all the old commented out code, it was just getting too messy.

Now I guess I'll have to transfer this to my PHP code.

@mark - PHP Jan 1st bug is really a "no data default (current) year thing". The only reason it showed up was because my UK server was getting Pauls US data)

mcrossley · Post by **mcrossley** » Sat 04 Jan 2014 10:41 am

Thanks beteljuice, I see the fix is already in the PHP version for the 1st Jan.

As an aside, I have implemented the DoW in my 'live' data summary page, but I have also converted it to source the data from a MySQL database rather than the dayfile.txt - something I have been meaning to look at for some time (and maybe useful for the next generation of Cumulus). I also removed the dual column option for min/max temp as it complicated the code and I didn't really ever view it. I expect the resulting code now needs a good going over and tidying up!

Interesting stuff.

I'm trying to convert the column colors to Farenheit scale.

Which is apparently done here:

Code: Select all

}

function tempColour($temp) {
    global $tempGrad;
    $txtCol = ($temp <= 0 ? 'DDD' : ($temp >= 0) ? 'FFF' : '000');
    $scaledVal = 100 + ($temp * 10);
    $scaledVal = ($scaledVal < 0 ? 0 : ($scaledVal > 399 ? 399 : $scaledVal));
    return array($tempGrad[$scaledVal], $txtCol);
}

When I change the 0 values to 32 the graph looks really hot.

I will keep experimenting but if one of you knows the correct values for the F conversion please do share.

Thanks,

--Kurt

Finally got the Saratoga site to display correctly http://www.komokaweather.ca/wxhistorical-colour1.php Thanks for your help beteljuice

Now on to the next modification

@ N0BGS

That looks like yet another version - the one Mark and I are 'playing' with is much more involved than that for the temp colours !

Probably the easiest thing for you to do is to convert the temp being 'processed' to deg C
(This shouldn't affect the displayed temp)

EDIT: Was a $process_temp= missing on text decision line - thank you Mark !

Code: Select all

function tempColour($temp) {
    global $tempGrad;
    $process_temp = ($temp -32) * 0.5555; // F to C conversion
    $txtCol = ($process_temp <= 0 ? 'DDD' : ($process_temp >= 0) ? 'FFF' : '000'); // contrast text decision
    $scaledVal = 100 + ($process_temp * 10);
    $scaledVal = ($scaledVal < 0 ? 0 : ($scaledVal > 399 ? 399 : $scaledVal)); // Are these values correct ?
    return array($tempGrad[$scaledVal], $txtCol);
}

The current beteljuice plaything (not guaranteed to be working !)

Oh, nice! That seems to have done it. Thanks much.

Now, I'll have to adjust the other color values.

That has been lifted from my current live page, I have refactored my code a bit to clean it up. It should now no longer be considered 'standard' in any way.

Yep, definitely the simplest solution. Though on the $txtCol = line there is a second $temp variable that needs converting to $process_temp.

Once again 'Thank you' to you both. Great stuff!

I had been trying to doing it in php and stagger the month column day 1 position and frankly I was in a real mess.

PaulMy · Post by **PaulMy** » Mon 06 Jan 2014 1:49 am

I am a few steps/versions behind, but have added additional data items http://www.komokaweather.com/weather/da ... olour2.php

Now studying how the colour is done to see if I can successfully add that to the new data pages.

Hi!
Thank You Mark about that code, which reads values from MySQL!!! Finally I have something to do with my databases... http://www.kapo511.net/wxannualDatasummary.php . Now I am trying (=read making faults) to make a table, which shows dynamically Weatherwalues backwards for example one week, one month, one year from this time. I have database named "Monthly" where is saved values in period of one minute... With that I could make my little table in front page to show how my weather seemed f.e. four months ago... A little bit advice should be welcome... I have not gotten further than this plan yet

I would be grateful for even the slightest help to get started on this project....

@PaulMy, coming on, the colours are 'precalculated' and put into arrays rather than being calculated on the fly. I created an array element for each possible data value within the range, so if the data has one decimal place, and you want colours for a range of 10, you need 100 array elements.

@kapo, that seems to be working OK

For your 'on this day' data, do you want the data from the same time on the past day as now? Is you web server in the same time-zone as your station?
