I've noticed that the temperatures (in Fahrenheit) are always whole numbers. Is this inherent in the Nest or am I getting the value incorrectly? Here's the pertinent code:
- Code: Select all
import time
f = open ("/Users/steve/Documents/Temperature History/Temperature History.csv", "a")
f.write(time.asctime() + ", " + str(indigo.devices[622658917].sensorValue) + ", " + str(indigo.devices[1018854453].temperatures[0]) + ", " + str(indigo.devices[1176616821].temperatures[0]) + ", " + str(indigo.devices[986957268].temperatures[0]) + "\n")
f.close()
The first device is a Z-Wave multi sensor. The other three are Nests.
(I know my Python is primitive. I'm just starting to program in it.)

You python is fine... I'm learning as well
That's what the API provides for Fahrenheit scales. Centigrade is in 0.5C steps. I guess you could convert the Centigrade value to Fahrenheit to get slightly better resolution but I don't think it would be that much better.
Apparently the NEST can provide temperature changes in 0.1 (unit) steps but it's not accessible sorry
Maybe we could try and collaborate on the temperature logging project as I've been thinking of adding some graphs or at least Excel formatted files.
