Parrot Flower Power variables in the Control Page...

I bought a sensor Parrot Flower Power for my lemon tree I have on my terrace. I have seen that there are API that allow you to access the information that the sensor sends to the cloud system of the parrot.
I state that I am not a Python programmer amateur, but I'd like to have a Python script or Applescript that I can to update the variables to be included in my Indigo Control Pages.
On Github I found a sample script that creates files with json sensor information.

https://github.com/parrot-flower-power/ ... pi-example

Can anyone help me to adapt it to use it on Indigo?

Hello,

Did you managed to interface it with Indigo.
I also have one and i cannot interface it.

thanks

I'd be interested to know too!

It does not look too difficult. You have to find a plugin developer that has the device(s) or will buy one...

Is it just an other watering system? What is better about it?

==> you have to promote it a bit!!

I am a novice both with Indigo that with Python. I used this example:

https://github.com/parrot-flower-power/ ... pi-example

After several attempts using both python and applescript script that I got of the variables to be used in ControlPage, which is getting updated information from the cloud of Parrot.

Unfortunately I do not connect directly with Indigo devices (do not know the API). I do iApp with the Parrot on the iPhone.

Hello,

Can you share with us the python and applescript that you have used ( of course without your passwords) ?
I have registered on API parrot and received the key but I did not manage to make it work with the example provided.

Thanks

before you start using the example code some comments:

from the code:
if not os.path.exists('json'): os.makedirs('json')

will create a directory json at some random place, better (replace yourusername with your user name) :
if not os.path.exists('/Users/yourusername/Documents/json'): os.makedirs('/Users/yourusername/Documents/json')

Also in indigo you should replace

import json

with

import simplejson as json

and some other little things.


Karl

This code should be a bit better for use with indigo
1. create "json" directory in your user directory ~/Documents
2. change json to simplejson

[EDIT]
3. replaced print with log file entry in indigo
without the device and userid, account .. I can't do more

Hello,

Thanks for your help.

I created the json folder in my documents folder and i put the file test_api.py containing your modified code.

I am trying to run an applescript from Indigo within action groups containing the following code:

python test_api.py --client_id XXXXX --client_secret XXXXX--username XXXXX --password XXXXX
or test_api.py --client_id XXXXX --client_secret XXXXX--username XXXXX --password XXXXX
where XXXXX are my parrot passwords.

But i am geting errors all the time.

What is my mistake ?

thanks
George

put the python code into an indigo action/server/script (there where you put python or applescript code.

btw: the json directory gets created automatically

replace the args section

delete:===
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog='test_api',formatter_class=argparse.ArgumentDefaultsHelpFormatter)
parser.add_argument('--client_id',required=True)
parser.add_argument('--client_secret',required=True)
parser.add_argument('--username',required=True)
parser.add_argument('--password',required=True)

args = parser.parse_args()
delete========
## new ##
yourMACid = pwd.getpwuid( os.getuid() )[ 0 ]
## new ##
if not os.path.exists('/Users/'+yourMACid+'/Documents/json'): os.makedirs('/Users/'+yourMACid+'/Documents/json')
basename = "https://apiflowerpower.parrot.com"
# change this:::::::::::::
client_id = "your id here"
client_secret = "your secret here"
username = "yours username here"
password = "your password here"
# change this::::::::::::::
then click on run

I have done these but when i click run i am getting the error embedded script: No module named argapse

delete first line in code. all the "arg" things should go

Now it gives:
import simplesjon as json ## changed

no module named simplesjon

;-(

Now it gives:
import simplesjon as json ## changed

no module named simplesjon

;-(

'simplesjon' should be 'simplejson' I think

Thanks a lot!!!!
It worked!!

I must find a way to put the results on a variable.
