Php script to upload WeatherFlow Tempest data

[simcom]

Hi,

I am using the following php script to grab data from my WeatherFlow Tempest station and then successfully upload them to Windy.com.
A cron job is used to run it every 5 minutes.
No additional weather software is needed.

Enjoy,
Kostas

// Download data from WeatherFlow Tempest station (use your own Token)
$url = 'https://swd.weatherflow.com/swd/rest/observations/station/111120?token=XXXXXXXXXXXX';

$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
$data = curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);

// Decode data so they can be used
$data = json_decode($data);

// Calculate variables
$ts = urlencode($data->obs[0]->timestamp);
$temp = urlencode($data->obs[0]->air_temperature);
$wind = urlencode($data->obs[0]->wind_avg);
$winddir = urlencode($data->obs[0]->wind_direction);
$gust = urlencode($data->obs[0]->wind_gust);
$rh = urlencode($data->obs[0]->relative_humidity);
$dewpoint =  urlencode($data->obs[0]->dew_point);
$mbar = urlencode($data->obs[0]->barometric_pressure);
$precip = urlencode($data->obs[0]->precip);
$uv = urlencode($data->obs[0]->uv);


// Upload data to Windy.com (use your own Windy API-KEY)
$url3 = "https://stations.windy.com/pws/update/API-KEY?winddir=$winddir&wind=$wind&gust=$gust&temp=$temp&precip=$precip&mbar=$mbar&dewpoint=$dewpoint&rh=$rh&uv=$uv";

//var_dump($url3);   //test only

$curl3 = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl3, CURLOPT_URL, $url3);
curl_setopt($curl3, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($curl3, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
$data3 = curl_exec($curl3);
curl_close($curl3);

//var_dump($data3);   //test only

Sorry but there is a mistake at the beginning of the script:

// Download data from WeatherFlow Tempest station (use your own Token)
$url = 'https://swd.weatherflow.com/swd/rest/observations/station/111120?token=XXXXXXXXXXXX';

Instead of [111120], you should use [your own station id]. This [111120] is just my own station id.

Cheers,
Kostas

Is this still working? Have many people deployed with success? @simcom would you be willing to help me deploy this remotely for a small lake resort? I'm not the technical.
