Geiger value to store in a number variable?

Flows
1

Hi everyone
I have a Geiger counter and I’d like to get the CPM value stored in a number variable. I spent 3 days looking for solution but my compétences are too low ….:sob::sob::sob:

In red is the value I want to get
I use advanced flow to have a text variable with the result … but from that I don’t know how to extract only the value after CPM

Can someone help me ?

Thanks

Nicolas

Hi,
the API returns not a JSON result, but a HTML page instead.
Is there a API documentation? Perhaps you can add an url parameter to get the JSON object only?

In fact, my Geiger counter send values to gmcmap site and I can get the last value dowloaded back from gmcmap.com
As there’s no api … could it be possible to work on the text variable I named « réponse GMCMAP » to extract the value after CPM and transform in value variable …
Like in excel file … but I don’t know how to do that …

You can’t extract JSON elements if the response is HTML:

You need an url to read only the JSON data. This should be documented by gmcmap.com

When I try fetch method in homeyscript;

var test = await fetch('http://gmcmap.com/historyData-plain.asp?Param_ID=44549586449&timezone=1');
console.log(test)

This is the response. Is there some way to extract this. The last part of the response seems something like json or array with objects

fetch only returns a response object, if you want to extract the response body use something like this:

const html = await test.text();

And then hack out the JSON:

const data = JSON.parse( html.match(/\{.+?\}/s)[0]) );

Thanks both of you …
As i’m novice in script …robertklep could you describe a bit more ? I don’t even understand what to write in homeyscript :sob::sob::sob:

I found a solution with this but it’s not clean enough as i look for text and convert … I would prefer do in your way guys …

Ah one parentheses too many:

const data = JSON.parse( html.match(/\{.+?\}/s)[0] );

Lol … I’m not good at all

End the script with this:

return data.CPM;

works perfectly … thank you very much for that
