Netatmo plugin discussion

Hello,

I am receiving the same error:

Netatmo plugin Debug Error Problem opening Netatmo web site. Reason = HTTP Error 403: Forbidden
Netatmo Plugin Error Netatmo server error encountered in DeviceList init
Netatmo Plugin Error Plugin stopping. Reason = __init__() should return None
Netatmo Plugin Stopping Netatmo device read loop
Netatmo Plugin Error plugin runConcurrentThread function returned or failed (will attempt again in 10 seconds)


Any ideas ?

Likewise these 403 errors seem to have started on Sunday. I'm guessing its changes to the Netatmo site and I'm hoping they can be worked around...

There was a change in the Netatmo API on May 5. I am looking into the problem and hope to have a fix today or tomorrow.

Hey,
With this change it worked fine but since yesterday no more

Netatmo plugin users. PLEASE make sure your Netatmo plugin is disabled. The constant retries are making it impossible to do any testing - they overload Netatmo's system causing the plugin's ID to be locked out. I am trying to find a fix, but I can't do that if I can't get authenticated.

Just FYI. The plugin is based on a Python library created by a Netatmo user. It appears that library does not follow the Netatmo API and is causing the trouble. Unfortunately, the library code is not Python 2.5 compatible, so even if the author releases a fix on his own, I still have to rewrite parts if it to run in Python 2.5.

Unfortunately, some of you Netatmo plugin users have ignored my request to Disable your plugin. That is causing the Netatmo server to disallow any access for users of the Indigo plugin. That includes me. So, as long as you persist in keeping your plugin running, generating errors in your log, I will not be able to get this fixed.

I disabled mine shortly after I spotted the errors.

It is possible/likely that some Netatmo Plugin users may be away (on holiday etc) and/or not aware of the errors.

That is likely what happened. I am just going to create a new app at Netatmo and use that for testing.

mine's been off too.

so you have an ID with netatmo for the plugin? And when it fails/keeps trying to connect it identifies as your plugin?

I understand them not liking that, but it seems like they would handle changes with more developer planning in mind?

Any progress? looking forward to getting the rain sensor data. the sensor works well and seems to be in line with NWS rainfall amounts.

Here's a screenshot of the rain gauge from today.

This problem is more complex than it first appeared. The Python libs I have been using need to be updated because of some policy changes in the API. Also, I have been very busy the past two weeks and not had much time to go further in my On my way! Either.

Hello Berkinet,

Do you have any update for your plugin ?

thanks
George

At this point I have no update on the status. As noted earlier, there are multiple issues: Primarily, the basic Python libs from philippelt are not really Python 2.5 compatible, though they claim to be. Getting the newest version up on 2.5 will take some work, more than I have at the moment. Then, once that is solved, NETATMO has removed the API call that philippelt was using. This means the way the plugin interacts (authentication and data retrieval) with NETATMO must be redesigned. Again, no time at the moment. I have been sort of hoping philippelt would work out this issue, but so far he has not updated the libs for this particular aspect.

I have been in contact with another Indigo user (@orangy) who might be able to help out here. But, he has been inactive for almost 3 months.

So, sorry for the poor prognosis. But, that's what it is.

Thanks for your candor. Whilst its not what we wanted to hear it helps to know. Thanks.
