hey y'all,
Im new to NodeRED, but getting there... now I want to use the Tibber API to get some data :D
but, how? mmmhhh...
Can find, show (right side, via debug) some data... but what I want is to know how to use that in a flow...
this for:
* lowest price of the next day. At the moment I can only find all of the next day price, debug.
* highest price of the day
* current price
Could someone please give me a flowExample, so I can see/figure out how to do this?
thx in advance :D
Hi @Tijntert
It's probably easier to watch a few node red guides first. However as a high level guide.
I cant help with Tibber api specifics but i can explain how you use the data in a flow.
Can you provide an example of what the data looks like from Tibber please?
thx :D but also for this, getting there...
and indeed, watch * infinity = know... ;)
example:
const homes = msg.payload.viewer.homes;
if (!homes || homes.length === 0) {
node.error('No homes found in the payload.');
return null;
}
const tomorrowPrices = homes[0].currentSubscription.priceInfo.tomorrow;
if (!tomorrowPrices || tomorrowPrices.length === 0) {
node.error('No prices for tomorrow, yet.');
return null;
}
let lowestPriceLP = Math.min(...tomorrowPrices.map(p => p.total));
if (isNaN(lowestPriceLP)) {
node.error('Lowest price is Not-a-Number.');
return null;
}
// only lowestPriceLP to msg.payload
msg.payload = lowestPriceLP;
return msg;
