[v4] Send a message with the weather

Configuration
1

Hi,

I finally received my Raspberry Pi 4 card yesterday, Gladys is installed and running smoothly :slight_smile:

I would like to create a scene to receive a message on Telegram every day when I wake up (at a specific time for now) with the weather forecast for the day. For example:

Good morning Louis,
Forecast a raincoat today, it will rain around 4 pm!

The weather module is already configured, but I don’t see how to use its data in a message.

Is this already possible and I missed it?

Or do I need to modify the weather module / Gladys to have this feature?
In this case, it might be a good idea to consider the weather module as a sensor coming from the internet to allow us to use its data in scenes.

@lmilcent This is not yet possible as is, but it’s clearly something we want to do :slight_smile:

There is a card that goes in this direction:

https://github.com/GladysAssistant/Gladys/issues/839

The goal would be to be able to fetch the weather in a scene action, store it in a scene variable, and then be able to use this variable in the « send a message Â» action.

The specs are not yet written, so we are still in the idea stage. Any help is welcome to advance this development :slight_smile:
