A plugin that automatically changes the background image of your designs based on the weather. Weather information, as well as sunrise and sunset times, will be obtained either from the official Weather plugin (automatic integration) or from commands of your choice with manual configuration.
| Component | Version |
|---|---|
| Debian | Bullseye(11) & Bookworm(12) |
| Jeedom | >= 4.3 |
To use the plugin, you must download, install, and activate it just like any other Jeedom plugin. You’ll also need to install and configure the official Weather plugin if you want to use the automatic integration.
No configuration is required for the plugin.
The plugin can be found in the Plugins → Weather menu.
After creating a new device, the usual options are available.
Select the designs for which you want to change the background image based on weather conditions.
You need to provide info commands that will return sunrise and sunset times in Jeedom format (HHMM), as well as define the conditions for each weather scenario so that the plugin can determine which background image to use.
Background images can be customized via the device configuration screen.
Once the configuration is complete, you can activate the device and save your settings. The selected designs will be updated immediately whenever weather conditions change, as well as at sunrise and sunset. No other actions or scenarios are required.
The device has a Refresh command to manually update the associated designs. In principle, this should never be used; the background images will already be automatically updated whenever necessary.
An Condition command returns the most recent calculated weather condition, which will be one of the following values: Fog, Snow, Cloudy, Thunderstorm, Rain, Sunny, Wind, Default.
An Time of Day info command will return one of the following values: Day or Night, depending on the current time of day used by the plugin to select the image.
