@bevvie Nice you should make a module out of that ;)

@cheapdad The forum is for crap at times… someday maybe perhaps some magical moment will occur and someone will actually fix it.

@assassins That’ll work!! Actually I’m going to move this over to my Home Assistant install because I have Ambient lighting on my TV that runs via a RP3…

Thanks!! :)

@majorc It would be :)

@jordes

@thoeng Looks amazing!!!

I used this and it worked… here’s an example:

I use a Sonos smart plug through SmartThings to turn off the Pi and turn it back on.

There are commands from the above link you can use. For instance I used commands to control my Vizio TV through Home Assistant.

Here is my ‘script’ for my TV.

- platform: command_line
  switches:
      living_room_tv:
        friendly_name: TV
        command_on: "/usr/bin/curl -k -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" -H \"AUTH: Zzbaa0sttq\" -X PUT -d '{\"KEYLIST\": [{\"CODESET\": 11,\"CODE\": 1,\"ACTION\":\"KEYPRESS\"}]}' https://192.168.1.20:7345/key_command/"
        command_off: "/usr/bin/curl -k -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" -H \"AUTH: Zzbaa0sttq\" -X PUT -d '{\"KEYLIST\": [{\"CODESET\": 11,\"CODE\": 0,\"ACTION\":\"KEYPRESS\"}]}' https://192.168.1.20:7345/key_command/"
        command_state: "/usr/bin/curl -k -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" -H \"AUTH: Zzbaa0sttq\" -X GET https://192.168.1.20:7345/state/device/power_mode"
        value_template: >
          {% if value_json.ITEMS.0.VALUE == 1 %}
            true
          {% else %}
            false
          {% endif %}

You can do the same to control the pi :)

@tholbear I tried it that night and it was NOT loading the data for that one day for some reason.

@bkeyport LOL

What I did on spring break…

Thank you again Sam for your help!!!

@tholbear Try running it again tomorrow. For some reason when I run it, it hangs for me. When I hard code the date it works fine. I would try and reinstall it and try again.

@julien-vancouver Let me look at it.

@cheapdad I did buy the real glass mirror and it was expensive… BUT, I’m glad I did it. It’s in my bathroom :)

@cloakingtorin said in Weather Module not showing with weather.gov api:

long: ‘-74.0’,

Did you copy the config file and paste it into your config file? Go back through and change all the quotes to double quotes…

             weatherProvider: "weathergov", 
 	apiBase: 'https://api.weather.gov/points/',
 	weatherEndpoint: '/forecast',
 	lat: '40.7',
 	long: '-74.0', 
 	type: 'forecast',

Copying configs and pasting them into your config can lead to quote issues…

@cheapdad Well you cannot use a PIR sensor behind a real mirror, it won’t work not sure if that’s what you were thinking…

@mushu That may work but the problem is some of that stuff does not like to come off.

A better idea would be to do the same thing but just use a plain piece of glass. ;)

Just copy your config file here…

@duxnobis You’re not stupid…it’s a good fix.

You should go to the github repository and do a pull request so it’s fixed for everyone :)
