Hi all,
I’ve an weather station (Alecto WS-5500) which currently send it data to Wunderground, Ecowitt.net etc.
But time-outs in the API call made me realize the sending data to e remote server, and the fetching it isn’t ideal if you want to use the sensors to control your smarthome.
I’ve looked at the CumulusMX project, but although close I didn’t manage to get my PWS data locally.
Then I stumbled upon this way to send the data of many weather stations to a local server and process it.
This is developed for Domoticz, but not maintained anymore.
I wonder how I’ll would be able to import the HTTP Get data into Openhab as the author did for Domoticz.
Is there anybody who has done something similar and is willing to help?
See this new binding just getting reviewed at the moment, the post has a jar that you can try out. There is also another binding that is unmerged that works if you have a ipObserver unit. So there are two ways to keep it fully local and get realtime data.
Thanks Skinah,
I’ll try the new binding for my Alecto (Fine-offset, Ecowitt) unit as soon as i get it running.
I don’t have MQTT at the moment so the weeWX option from Greg doesn’t fit my situation at the moment.
