Cumulus Support

Is there a Web Tag file available for MX ... and if so, where do I find it ??
If not, anyone know how to create one ???
Thanks

The <webtags> are pretty much identical - you just have to be careful with any date / time formats ..

Thanks for the input, and I have read the WIKI in respect of the tags. However, is there a specific file that contains the tags ... (if so, where can it be downloaded )and if not, how do you create a web tag file ??
Thanks

I think you might have missed the point (or else I've misinterpreted your question?)

Webtags in Cumulus are a feature by which Cumulus can 'process' any file (a template file) and convert all the Webtags within it to the actual value. Typically this is used in any *.htm or *.html files that you want to create including data from your weather station. You can create such a file with any text editor (eg Notepad on Windows or nano on a Raspberry Pi or even a fully fledged web file authoring package).

This is described near the start of the Wiki page referred above as:

Using web tags in templates for creating HTML pages

• You can create a template file that has a structure of HTML elements with Cumulus web tags to represent the information you want included.

• f you ask Cumulus to process that template file, it will create a HTML page from the template, and during that file creation replace the tag with the current value of the item the tag represents.

• You also need to tell Cumulus that the resulting HTML file is to be uploaded to the internet (or copied to a local web server).

For example, the supplied template webpage file CumulusMX/web/TodayT.htm contains many Webtags, such as When Cumulus processes this template file, it changes the Webtag <#location> into the text that you have set for your location, and the processed output file including that (as well as all the other tags for date, time, temperature etc etc) is saved with a new filename, in this case Today.htm. In my case, this contains See how <#location> has been changed into Chummetweg?
Apart from the standard ones, you need to tell Cumulus which files you want it to process in the web interface / Settings / Extra web files table.

They don't have to be *.htm files - they are just text files to Cumulus. So I use the same feature to convert from twitter.txt containing almost nothing except a list of webtags: to human readable with current data in tweet.txt before uploading it using TwitterBot to https://twitter.com/LiesbergDorf

Hope that helps you!

If you read the instructions for Cumulus Toolbox in the wiki https://cumuluswiki.wxforum.net/a/Toolbox is tells you to use the PHP webtags file and there is a link to it in the article.

I don't think Cumulus Tool Box works with CumulusMX Web Tags - it was designed long before CumulusMX was released. I guess you want to set up various alerts. Please let me know if you succeed!
