Tmux Tartu Weather

Tmux plugin that displays data from the weather station at University of Tartu Institute of Physics in the status bar.

The plugin introduces a new format: #{meteodata}

Usage

Add #{meteodata} to your existing status-left or status-right option:

set -g status-right '#{meteodata} | %H:%M'

Current weather data will be displayed like this:

+21°C 1.5m/s | 16:20

Additional Options

By default only the temperature and wind speed are printed. You can override this with the @meteodata-params option.

@meteodata-params can contain a comma separated list of parameters. These are:

Parameter	Name	Unit
temp	temperature	°C
humid	humidity	%
baro	air pressure	hPa
wind_dir	wind direction	°
wind_len	wind speed	m/s
lux	illuminance	lx
sole	irradiation flux	W/m²
gamma	radiation	μSv/h
precip	precipitation	mm/s

Additionally, there is wind which combines both direction and speed like so: ↓1.5m/s

Installation

With TPM

Add this plugin to your list of TPM plugins in .tmux.conf:

set -g @plugin 'siimpragi/tmux-weather-tartu'

$ git clone https://github.com/siimpragi/tmux-weather-tartu ~/some/path

In the bottom of your .tmux.conf add:

run-shell ~/some/path/weather.tmux

Reload tmux with:

$ tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf

TODO

• Combine wind_len and wind_dir. Wind direction to be represented by Unicode arrow characters (U+2190–U+2193,U+2196–U+2199).
• Account for low status-interval option. Wouldn't want to bombard the server. The weather station data is only updated every 10 seconds anyways.
