I was going to see if i could fix that but I just had a hard disk failure! good job i have a cloned imaged:)
toxic you can adjust the offset in easyweathersetup its been an option from day one ..see attached image

yes i minified code (you can unminify it) to reduce the file size as this particular file does a lot of other things so keep it too a minimum file size improved the performance .

Re: Error regarding USNO Sunmoon data

After several months of testing/tweaking, the get-USNO-sunmoon.php script has been revised to V3.00.

The major changes are:
1) switch to using curl to access api.usno.navy.mil API (better timeout control) and
2) addition of built-in calculations to supply sun/moon rise/set and moon %illumination and phase (thanks to Jachym and others for sharing the code!)

You can add a new setting to Settings.php where you can optionally switch the script from using the USNO to using the internal calculations.

$SITE['useUSNO'] = true; // =true; default -- use the USNO api.usno.navy.mil JSON for data

$SITE['useUSNO'] = false; // =false: use the internal calculations and no access to the USNO api.usno.navy.mil server

Note that the internal calculations are within a couple of minutes of the more-accurate USNO data, and likewise the % illumination is within a couple percent. For best accuracy, continue to use the USNO. If the USNO server has issues, then switch to using the internal calculations to free your website page load from externally caused delays with the USNO server.

Standalone download here

Saratoga template: use the update tool (Base-*, Plugin-*, 11-Oct-2017)
(note that get-metar-conditions-inc.php V1.16 is included in the update, and for USA templates, advforecast2.php V5.04 (JSON) is included)

Best regards,
Ken

Hi Ken,
Again thank you as always for a brilliant update: get-USNO-sunmoon.php ( V3.00 ).

I found using the :

Code: Select all

$SITE['useUSNO'] = false;
worked better for me.
Sun Times where out by one or 2 mins if I used USNO rather than Internal (however I did compare against "www.timeanddate.com" which I am not sure is 100% accurate), but the bonus is it results in yet another non reliance on external data capture which is great.

I also decided to utilise the array in the "Common.php" to make the "Lunar Cycles" more timely, as they where always displaying past times.

Code: Select all

#  tman1991 mods for cell.php add-on 
   $moonD = array($NM, $Q1, $Q2, $Q3, $Q4, $Q1Moons[$mi], $fullMoons[$mi], $Q3Moons[$mi] );
   $moonP = array("New Moon", "First Quarter", "Full Moon", "Last Quarter", "New Moon", "First Quarter", "Full Moon", "Last Quarter");
   $moonI = array("NM", "Q1, "FM", "Q3", "NM", "Q1", "FM", "Q3");
   foreach($moonD as $key=>$mdate) {
      if ($mdate>$date) {
         $info->moons[] = array ($moonP[$key], $mdate, $moonI[$key], date("r",$mdate));
	  }
   }
#  end tman1991 mods for cell.php add-on 
Original : (most Times are Historic) : Current Date is : 14/10/2017 "AEDT" ("UTC" +11)
almanacold.PNG
New : (All Times are in the Future) : and dynamically adjust left to right according to Date/Time. :
Current Date is : 14/10/2017 "AEDT" ("UTC" +11)
Note: I also changed the old "GMT" to "UTC".

To Enable this change : I did the following :

In my "wxalmanac.php" or ( "wxastronomy.php" or "sunmoon.php" ) which ever file users have, I changed :

</div>
In order to have the $moon Array available :
in same file around row (141) I added :

Code: Select all

$moon = cgetMoonInfo();
:
Example :

Code: Select all

    	if(file_exists("get-USNO-sunmoon.php")) { 
      	include_once("get-USNO-sunmoon.php");
	  $USNOdata = getUSNOsunmoon();
   	}
   if(isset($USNOdata['sunrise']))                 {$sunrise =     $USNOdata['sunrise']; }  
   if(isset($USNOdata['sunrisedate']))             {$sunrisedate = $USNOdata['sunrisedate']; }  
   if(isset($USNOdata['sunset']))                  {$sunset =      $USNOdata['sunset']; }  
   if(isset($USNOdata['sunsetdate']))              {$sunsetdate =  $USNOdata['sunsetdate']; }  
   if(isset($USNOdata['moonrise']))                {$moonrise =    $USNOdata['moonrise']; }  
   if(isset($USNOdata['moonrisedate']))            {$moonrisedate= $USNOdata['moonrisedate']; }  
   if(isset($USNOdata['moonset']))                 {$moonset =     $USNOdata['moonset']; }  
   if(isset($USNOdata['moonsetdate']))             {$moonsetdate = $USNOdata['moonsetdate']; }  
   if(isset($USNOdata['moonphase']))               {$moonphasename = $USNOdata['moonphase']; }  
   if(isset($USNOdata['illumination']))            {$moonphase = $USNOdata['illumination']; }  
   if(isset($USNOdata['hoursofpossibledaylight'])) {$hoursofpossibledaylight = $USNOdata['hoursofpossibledaylight'];} 
 }  
$moon = cgetMoonInfo();
?>
Then I Copied/Renamed the following Moon Images : (to work with the array) :
(NOTE: my files are .png vs users may have .jpg)

moon-firstquar.png = Q1.png
moon-fullmoon.png = FM.png
moon-lastquar.png = Q3.png
moon-newmoon.png = NM.png

That's it, well I would like to make the "Solar Cycle" (Season) section dynamic as well, however that will sit on the drawing board for a while till I figure out a way to turn it into an array , which would then I suppose remove the requirement for the "get_localdate" and "get_utcdate" for it, or at worst have to adjust them.

I also modified the Class Moon() in Brians "LiveData.php" file as per your mods :

Code: Select all

// $timezone = (int)($lon / 15);
   $date = self::modifiedJulianDate($month, $day, $year);
// $date -= $timezone / 24;
   $timezone = date('Z')/3600; // KT 
   $date -= $timezone / 24;


And that works perfect, removing the need to use the Homeweather Templates (Moon/Fine Tuning) requirement in "easyweathersetup.php".

That coupled with the recent mod I made to remove the need to adjust the Homeweather Templates "UTC" Offset every time we swing from "ST" to "DST" now means the Homeweather Template can run in auto without having to change either of the above mentioned settings.
(ref: images below). The first Moon/Fine Adjustment image (displays a "1") as it's an old image, in my case that is now "0" and will remain that way.

Ah ! : Forgot some additional changes (for the Moon Array) : in order to Display "First Quarter Moon" or "Last Quarter Moon" vs just "First Quarter" or "Last Quarter" above each Moon image, you will need further changes to "Common.php" and "get-USNO-sunmoon.php".

So rather than waffle on more here, I have attached both files, just do the usual (backup/copy/diffmerge/whatever) before using, oh and ensure you have applied the earlier - above mentioned changes first.

Note: also, unless I'm wrong (possible), I reverse my "Summer" / "Winter" Solstice images for "Southern Hemisphere" display. I made this change ages ago Ken as the Switch did not seem to work and never bothered to investigate why, in the end I created new images to be more relevant to Aus/Southern Hemisphere. They are rough and ready, but do me.

MM, spoke to early on that one, still some further tweaks to fathom out as some times are still not 100% correct in homeweather Template post mod.

The major changes are:
1) switch to using curl to access api.usno.navy.mil API (better timeout control) and
2) addition of built-in calculations to supply sun/moon rise/set and moon %illumination and phase (thanks to Jachym and others for sharing the code!)

You can add a new setting to Settings.php where you can optionally switch the script from using the USNO to using the internal calculations.

$SITE['useUSNO'] = true; // =true; default -- use the USNO api.usno.navy.mil JSON for data

$SITE['useUSNO'] = false; // =false: use the internal calculations and no access to the USNO api.usno.navy.mil server

Note that the internal calculations are within a couple of minutes of the more-accurate USNO data, and likewise the % illumination is within a couple percent. For best accuracy, continue to use the USNO. If the USNO server has issues, then switch to using the internal calculations to free your website page load from externally caused delays with the USNO server.

Saratoga template: use the update tool (Base-*, Plugin-*, 11-Oct-2017)
(note that get-metar-conditions-inc.php V1.16 is included in the update, and for USA templates, advforecast2.php V5.04 (JSON) is included)

I downloaded you new get-USNO-sunmoon.php but my moon rise and set dates are showing (01/Jan/1970)

I can't see what is going wrong, the old one just worked.

https://www.conligwx.org/get-USNO-sunmoon.php
https://www.conligwx.org/get-USNO-sunmoon.working.php

Alos USNO-moondata.txt doesn't seem to be created. is this only for USNO data?

Code: Select all

$Version = 'get-USNO-sunmoon.php - Version 3.00 - 11-Oct-2017';

  // -----------local settings-------------------

  $ourTZ = "Europe/London"; //NOTE: this *MUST* be set correctly to

  // translate UTC times to your LOCAL time for the displays.
  //  set to station latitude/longitude (decimal degrees)

  $myLat = 5x.xxxx; //North=positive, South=negative decimal degrees
  $myLong = - x.xxxxx; //East=positive, West=negative decimal degrees

  // The above settings are for saratoga-weather.org location

  $myCity = 'Conlig'; // my city name
  $useMDY = false; // true=use mm/dd/yyyy for dates, false=use dd/mm/yyyy for dates
  $cacheFileDir = '/cache/'; // default cache file directory
  $cacheName = "USNO-moondata.txt"; // used to store the file so we don't have to fetch from USNO website
  $refetchSeconds = 3600; // refetch every nnnn seconds 3600=1 hour
  $useUSNO = false; // =true; use USNO data, =false; use computed values only (not as accurate)

Change

Code: Select all

	$timeFormat = "H:i m/d/Y";
to

Code: Select all

	$timeFormat = $useMDY?"H:i m/d/Y":"H:i d/m/Y";
and that should fix it up.

I've updated the beta script with that change.
looks like you need to update this again in your original file Ken. thats why I got the (01/Jan/1970) again....

fixed now though please update your get-USNO-sunmoon.php.

Oooh... sorry about that.. forgot to put the check for MDY v.s.DMY format in the calculated part. Thanks for spotting that.

I've updated the distribution with V3.01 with the fix for DMY format (as shown above).. thanks again!
