Weather logging
So been experimenting with some of the options for ansiweather, partly as schools need to teach data logging as part of the national curriculum computing, however not all schools have the kit required.
As I have this running on a Raspberry Pi, I thought it may be possible to set one up to log just the location and temperature.
ansiweather -l paignton -p false -h false -w false -i false >temponly.txt
so the above will display the location and temperature, but exclude pressure, humidity, wind and UV index.
now=$(date +"%m_%d_%Y")
echo "Filename : /nas/backup_$weather.csv"
echo $(date "+ %D, %T"), $(ansiweather -l Paignton -a false) >> weather_$now.csv
Control what is sent to stdout.
now=$(date +"%m_%d_%Y")
echo "Filename : /nas/backup_$weather.csv"
echo $(date "+ %D, %T"), $(ansiweather -l torquay -p false -h false -w false -i false) >> torquay_$now.csv
Final script
now=$(date +"%m_%d_%Y")
echo "Filename : /nas/backup_$weather.csv"
echo $(date "+ %D, %T"), $(ansiweather -l torquay -p false -h false -w false -i false) >> torquay_$now.csv
