Re: WUnderground Plugin Updates

WUnderground Plugin v1.1.15 is now available.

It is recommended that all users apply this update to avoid having a control page radar image break as a result of a future update.

Changes:

  • Eliminates coercion of image file names that are downloaded using the WURadar device type. Now, all images downloaded with this device will be saved as GIF files. PNG will no longer be supported. If PNG is somehow a requirement, users will need to use the WUnderground Image Downloader device type.
  • Adds timeout to all data download requests (10 second timeouts).

Notes:

When initially released, the WURadar device would take the GIF file that was delivered by Weather Underground and save it with a PNG extension (it did not change the underlying encoding of the image file). This was done to "trick" Indigo into showing the image filename as a static image on the Control Page editor. This version of the plugin eliminates that coercion and saves the file as a GIF file.

If you used this device in combination with a static image on a control page, it will require you to revise the radar image control on your control pages. Instead of a static image, you should change the control to a Refreshing Image URL control and enter the URL for the image using these steps:

1. Type file:// into the URL field of the Control Page editor
2. Browse to the downloaded radar image file in Finder. It will be located in the /Library/Application Support/Perceptive Automation/Indigo 7/IndigoWebServer/images/controls/static/ folder (replacing "Indigo 7" with your current version number as needed)
3. Right-click on the file and hold down the Option key
4. Click on "Copy xxx.gif as Pathname"
5. Paste this path into the URL field of the Indigo Control Page editor after the file:// you added earlier.
6. Optional: replace the spaces in the URL with %20 to silence any 'malformed URL' messages.

Your properly formatted URL will look something like this:

Code: Select all
file:///Library/Application%20Support/Perceptive%20Automation/Indigo%207/IndigoWebServer/images/controls/static/WUradar.gif

You can download it here.

Re: WUnderground Plugin Updates

WUnderground Plugin v7.0.03 is now available.

Announcing version 7 of the WUnderground plugin. I've built this update so that existing users of version 6 (and below) should be able to install this update on top of the existing plugin, requiring no changes to existing devices. That's the plan, anyway...

NOTE! WUnderground 7 requires Indigo 7

In addition to all features provided with WUnderground 6, version 7 of the plugin has the following features and revisions.

  • Adds button to plugin config dialog to open browser session with Weather Underground for new users to sign up for API key
  • Adds setting to all weather devices to allow users to control time of day setting to receive weather email summary
  • Implements API 2.0 (requires Indigo v7)
  • Takes advantage of Indigo API improvements for device state updates (uses fewer system resources)
  • Takes advantage of Indigo API improvements for debug logging
  • Limits list of devices for severe weather alert trigger to only weather devices (only weather devices have alert information available)
  • Removes call to forecast API (because forecast10day includes everything forecast does)
  • Code consolidation using common code framework
  • Moves plugin documentation to Github wiki
  • Code refinements
  • Plugin UI refinements

You can download it here.
