I search script & template for weather graph

Post by meteo.quimper »

Hi

i just finished to install cacti, the graphs work well (memory,network...), i search a script and a template who can make graphs from a .txt file, the data on the file are simple, for example weather.txt:

52,72,1080,15

52 is for temperature, 72 is for humidity, 1080 is for pressure...

the data are from a weather station, if someone can help me.

thanks

if on a linux box you can use a bash script and awk the file.
This bash script can be used as the data input method on cacti.
It is quite easy to create a data template and graphs from there onwards.

If you are looking into creating weather graphs why dont yu use the following:

I use this and lot of others are successfully using this.

Thanks for your answer, but i have my own weather station (Davis Vantage Pro 2) that's why i just need to create graphs from the .txt file.
Another idea ?

i had a look at ur data:

"15,10,72,1023,28,36,5,500,14"

do you want all these data to be present on the same graph or seperate ones?

I think you should put them on separate graphs to look it nice, also you can put them on the same graph later on as well.

I can create some templates for this. i am assuming that the data file will be updated via another *external* script.

ok here it is.

I am posting the weather_scripts.rar file.

Import the XML files using the import feature of cacti.

modify the bash script "print.sh" - with the exact path of ur cacti installation.

and put that script into the scripts dir of cacti.

Also i am attaching sample graphs as well .... Enjoy with a glass of champagne :)

ah!!! .. i almost forgot this part, you need to add the data input methods as follows in the screen shot:

just follow the screen shot and add them as it is exactly and you are good to go.
