Perhaps a little offtopic, but how did you guys managed to get those nice icons in the frontend?

Text in pimatic is UTF-8 and the standard HTML font already contains a wide range of symbols. See logreader device configuration in post #5 (acronym property). You should be able to copy-paste that. If you save it to a file make sure the editor supports wide characters (on modern operating system Win 10, MacOS, Raspbian this is the normally the default).

So, i got my plant sending tweets if it needs water and to check light, and battery. All working. A big thanks to @dynamite for all the time and patience with me. All done via node red. Up and running. And you can follow my plant now She is very social. https://twitter.com/plantas_pi
You are the best @dynamite

@Anduril

no. I ignore the error messages…

How can i do this?
Sometimes i have 0 Error-Messages, sometimes 180. I think it depends on the Weather because the distance to the sensor is a little bit to much.

Wow, its really hot outside.
The Sensor reads 6553°C

By the way: is it really necessary to have thousands of Emoticons in a Forum?

I now have the Mi Flora working als a BLE device with Pimatic, so without the Python script

See this thread: https://forum.pimatic.org/topic/3925/bluetooth-and-ble-status

@rrooggiieerr Thanks, I’ve been looking forward to see a proper pimatic plugin for MiFlora! Keep up the good job, I’ll be testing your solution ASAP!

Hi.
I have also problems with the installation.
Wich Plugins did i need? Is it currently ble 0.9.3, ble-itag 0.0.6, log-reader 0.9.2, and ble-mi-flora 0.0.9?

I find 2 sensor devices at Settings/Device/DiscoveryDevices, but i have only installed 1 sensor.

My english is not the best, so i dont know what is to do at the next time. I read somthing, that i have to start a Document, wich is named demo.py
How should i name the rule, that it works ok? I saved the shell command in demo.py, but i can not write the command in the rule…
and after this step, i should log the dates?

Thanks for your help

Hello.
Today i founded the right command (execute “sudo python /home/pi/demo.py”), to open the script every 10 minutes, but i get a error code:
error [pimatic]: rule skriptneustart error executing an action: Error: Command failed: sudo python /home/pi/demo.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/home/pi/demo.py”, line 9, in <module>
from btlewrap import available_backends, BluepyBackend, GatttoolBackend, PygattBackend
ImportError: No module named btlewrap7

can sombody please tell me, what is the problem??
Did i have to edit somthing in the demo.py?
