Netatmo weather station on Joomla
Finally the Joomla Digi Netatmo module is available again. We apologize for the long wait due to the rewriting of the module's connection with the Netatmo account, which was necessary after Netatmo requested to use only login via the OAuth method.With Digi Netatmo you can easily integrate Joomla and Netatmo, to show on your website the data coming from your Netatmo weather station or from your Netatmo thermostat.
This happens through the Netatmo API integrated in the Joomla module, allowing you to set up which data you want to show and in which way.
This is the first module Joomla Netatmo that can be useful each time you want to show on a Joomla weather module the real time data: ski slopes, hotels, bed & breakfast, boats rental, riding school, outdoor activities, are only some examples of websites which could need to show to the visitors the real time weather.
The set up of the Joomla weather module is very easy, after connecting your Netatmo account, you can select the Netatmo weather station or the Netatmo thermostat, the external Netatmo modules and then the data to be shown on Joomla. Other secondary options are available, such as different units of measurement, text display or slideshow display.
Bring on your Joomla website the internet of things! Check the status of your Netatmo weather station on Joomla and of your Netatmo thermostat on Joomla, directly from this module.
Known issues
To keep the Netatmo account access token valid, the module needs to receive visits to the web page on which it is published. This is because, with each visit by a user, the module validates the access token.In the event of prolonged inactivity on the web page, it may happen that the module can no longer validate the Netatmo account access token; this will require manual disconnection and a new connection via the module's backend.
To overcome this problem, we offer a completely free subscription to the service of our partner Peeping Cloud; among other utilities, this service can automatically make periodic visits to a particular page of a website. This will prevent the Netatmo token from being invalidated. To activate your subscription to this service, please open a support ticket once you have completed the purchase of Digi Netatmo.
We hope that this solution will overcome the problem.
