Shared UserReports
I have recently been working on the layout of my CUtils UserReports and have now settled on a tabular layout for the basic information, TodayYesterday and MonthYear UserReports as per the attached screen shots. The various html files are attached for information.
They give a quick lookup for the information contained within CMX and CUtils using a mix of webtags and script to generate the reports which I have linked to my website via the "ExtraWebFiles " facility in CMX settings and the CUserMenu in CUtils.
It is surprising that with time and perseverance it is possible to add extra reports to the excellent CUtils format.

Re: Shared UserReports
Other examples of tables today-yesterday, month-year. Easily editable French version for languages and colors.Everything is possible with UserReports.

Re: Shared UserReports
Hi there
This looks like a step forward for my tables, already I have a fine boarder and some of the data point headings translated to English.
Once the first table is working as I want the rest will follow.
Currently the work up is in my UserReports AndyKTest.
Good work Patrick

Re: Shared UserReports
I have been working on some UserReports to show at a quick glance changes in conditions. The project has also enhanced my coding skills in the construction of tables, this would have been very difficult a year or so ago. It just goes to show that CMX/CUtils can be more than just a weather platform if you want a challenge.
I have attached screen shots and files showing just where I am at the moment, thanks go to Patrick for showing the way for alternate line colours. As ever this may change over time, suggestions are always welcomed.

Re: Shared UserReports
Haha... that's a bonus

I intended it to be the opposite: an easy one view interface to the weather data. But it's good to hear it has become multi purpose

Re: Shared UserReports
Andy,
As a bit of light relief
from trying to get a functioning WindRose, I’m happily changing colours everywhere and looking at your UserReports!
Are you happy with me downloading and attempting to use them please? I may eventually be able to write my own but this is a nice lazy way out for now. Thank you.
Linda

Re: Shared UserReports
Hi Linda
No problem with the download, that is why they are published on the forum. I thought the wind rose worked

Re: Shared UserReports
Andy,
Thanks for that.
I have data issues, I hope I'm on the home run now, if not, I'll be asking for help on here! The main problem is that it's a lot more interesting customising the interface than examining month files......
Linda

Re: Shared UserReports
My latest UserReport is a comparison of the current month against AllTime month which seems to be OK.
There a couple issue that I can see, namely the longest time without rain is currently showing -9999 days rather than zero which is a bit odd. Not to sure how to sort the problem.
The second issue is the apparent lack of a AllTimeMonthly webtag for monthly sunshine hours in the form <#ByMonthSunshineHoursMonth> at the moment I have just compared the current month with the same month last year using <#SunshineHoursMonth r=-12>. Not quite correct but at least it gives a result.
I have attached a copy of the code file and screen shot showing the screen.
Hans, I expect the coding error is a CMX problem and not a CUtils problem.

Re: Shared UserReports
Hi Andy,
You are trying out all webtags
Nice exercise!
If the above gives a correct value on your machine, you probably have a typo somewhere (I did not check).
You could get all the sunshine hours for each year individually and then add those in a small javascript snippet () to some variable and put that into the HTML but to be true: that is a bit against the webtag system and it becomes programming. Don't think you are looking for that. I would not do it

I assume you use the webtag YearLongestDryPeriod. On my CMX that gives a correct value. You can try yourself (any webtag) through the API. So for this webtag give:
Code: Select all
http://<localhost or IPaddress>:8998/api/tags/process.json?YearLongestDryPeriod
Mmm... yes that appears to be non-existent. If you need it, ask Mark in the CMX forum thread maybe you get it on his todo listAndyKF650 wrote: ↑Fri 04 Feb 2022 8:48 pm The second issue is the apparent lack of a AllTimeMonthly webtag for monthly sunshine hours in the form <#ByMonthSunshineHoursMonth> at the moment I have just compared the current month with the same month last year using <#SunshineHoursMonth r=-12>.

I don't really see a coding error atm, but if there is, yes it would be a CMX issue

Re: Shared UserReports
Hi Hans
At long last I have found some time to clean up my coding on the UserReports, when you copy from another site all sorts of extra lines get included for little benefit.
I now have a changed colour for hover and alternate coloured lines which I think look good, it is an example of what is achievable given the will and some time.
The attached files show where I am at now and maybe I will just rest on this for a while especially since sunny Jersey is living up to its name.

Re: Shared UserReports
@Andy, @Patrick,
Are those the most recent versions of your user reports?
I think of going to make use of some.

Yes the User Reports on my site have not needed to be changed for some time and are current.
