KC6HUR/IRLP Weather scripts

A couple years ago I hacked up randy’s scripts to get
the weather to work with allstar.

I am redoing them now that the NWS went with the CAP

protocol and zapped the RSS feed.

before I completely re-invent the wheel has anyone else done this.

Right now I am in grep sed hell . I am rewriting the scripts to

go grab the weather the new way the NWS wants you to. its a hell of a mess right now. go get a url, part out a url go get that parse out text

it’s mostly working for one alert, but if there are more than one it gets really complex parsing that out.

It does still get the current conditions and forecast still. sends it

to cepstral for TTS and save them as ulaw for asterisk to play.

If no one has done it can anyone chime in a help with the parsing.

there is a perl module to do this but my perl-fu is weak!

.

It supports wx alerts, wx forecast reports, and current weather underground reports.

Let me know if this interest you.

For more information. I have to tar up or package the scripts for Allstar.

Hi Don,

I have been busy with work and had my allstar node system die. I am in the process of bringing up the node with new hardware.

There are quite a number of things to do regarding all the scripts. I have modified the scripts to include most of the functionality and cleaned up where the directories are pointed and also included a new log area for the weather script logs. I should get something together this week for the group here. I also want to put together some basic documents for the allstar port.

Glad you got it working, you may want to change over to the new port when I get this completed. Sorry for the delay.

Cheers,

Chris, w0anm (Pirlp node 3106, Allstar node 29106)

Yeah, that’s the ones I was working with. I see your current set, and they are a lot different.
still doing things mostly the same way.

Do you have a tarball of them modified to work with allstar?

what I did was remove any the IRLP specific stuff from them.

profile, basically anything that mentioned irlp, and hard set some

of the paths instead of variables. made them run from /scripts/wx.

I had cepstral spit out .ul files and then sent an asterisk command

to play alerts, and then added in some dialplan options to play the rest.

I can probably re-engineer them like I did before, but if you already did

that’s great.
