Weatherbit.io - Current Weather and Forecast data

briis · June 29, 2020, 9:49am

The data for these sensors come from the Forecast API, it is the Current data that fails. Please try the Fix above, to see if this gets you going.

Mariusthvdb · June 29, 2020, 9:54am

you’re fast!
fixed
everything is back

arodrigues · June 29, 2020, 10:11am

Thanks @briis! Fast and effective! It’s working again

weatherbitpypi==0.24.3

did the trick for me on 2 independant instances => trested and aproved, ready for productive deployment.

Cheers, Andi

I’ve received this Warning couple of times last few days, any idea what could be the reason for it?

Hi Erik,
I assume that you don’t get an unavailable state for the sensors or weather entity? There is not a lot of processing going on inside the Integration itself, it mostly just pulls data from weatherbit, and presents it. So my only guess is that the connection from you to weatherbit, is lagging somehow.

erik7 · June 30, 2020, 3:18pm

Thanks for the, as usual, quick reply!
Indeed no unavailable state for the sensors or weather entity.
I’ll keep an eye on it to see if it always happens at the same time which might be indicating something is causing it.
Thanks again.

briis · June 30, 2020, 3:25pm

Deal. If it continous, try adding some debug to see if this gives more info. Add this to your configuration.yaml:

logger:
  default: error
  logs:
    custom_components.unifiprotect: debug

Started getting these errors in my log today, an idea whats causing them ?

I got the same errors - the root cause I cannot do a lot about, as it is weatherbit’s service being unavailable. But the error handling should be better. I have just released a fix for that. It should show up soon in HACS as v0.27.

Holdestmade · July 1, 2020, 4:13pm

Brilliant, thanks

briis · July 1, 2020, 6:48pm

Don’t update yet. It did not fix the errors.
/B

duceduc · July 2, 2020, 3:24am

This is not working for me. It says none.

{{ state_attr('weather.weatherbit', 'forecast')[0].condition }}

This works though, but it gives all the forecast starting with Day 1 - Day 7. Unfortunately, forecast do not provide today’s weather condition, but on Day 1. How do I find today’s current condition??

{{ state_attr('weather.weatherbit_shimotoda', 'forecast')[0].condition
        in ('cloudy', 'partlycloudy', 'rainy') }}

briis · July 2, 2020, 7:03am

Release 0.29 is out which should now handle errors much better, when Weatherbit cannot be contacted upon startup. The Integration will now retry several times with different intervals.
You should also not see these Crash Errors in the Log file anymore.

Holdestmade · July 2, 2020, 7:57am

OK, I’ll give it a try, thanks

Holdestmade · July 2, 2020, 8:04am

Did you try this, seems to reflect my current conditions:

{{ state_attr('weather.weatherbit_XXXXXX', 'alt_condition') }}

There is also a cloudiness attribute, maybe that could be used ?

briis · July 2, 2020, 10:34am

Try this instead:

{{ states.weather.weatherbit_shimotoda.attributes.forecast[0].condition 
in ('cloudy', 'partlycloudy', 'rainy') }}

Holdestmade · July 2, 2020, 11:29am

I’d avoid that as stated in the documentation:

Avoid using states.sensor.temperature.state , instead use states('sensor.temperature') . It is strongly advised to use the states() , is_state() , state_attr() and is_state_attr() as much as possible, to avoid errors and error message when the entity isn’t ready yet (e.g., during Home Assistant startup).

Also, just noticed that my current weather condition is not then same as the first forecast day (today) so it will probably best to use the current conditions and not the forecast ?

Mariusthvdb · July 2, 2020, 12:06pm

using 29, I still see this unfortunately:

Mariusthvdb · July 2, 2020, 12:08pm

use the square brackets for the condition list:

{{ state_attr('weather.weatherbit_shimotoda', 'forecast')[0].condition
        in ['cloudy', 'partlycloudy', 'rainy'] }}

note I didnt check the correct working since my integration is offline now, I merely corrected the syntax

edit

actually, my post was not correct… both should work. pardon me please
