Weather

The Weather class constructs objects that represent the built-in components of the shield.

  • Explicit Initialization, defaults "data" to 25ms intervals

    const weather = new Weather({
      variant: "DEV-13956",
    });
     
    ...or...
     
    const weather = new Weather({
      variant: "DEV-13674",
    });

  • Explicit Initialization, specify "data" to 200ms intervals

    const weather = new Weather({
      variant: "DEV-13956",
      period: 200
    });
     
    ...or...
     
    const weather = new Weather({
      variant: "DEV-13674",
      period: 200
    });

Parameters

Property Type Value(s)/Description Default Required Version
variant string "ARDUINO", "PHOTON" no yes v0.1.0-v1.0.0
variant string or number See Variants no yes v2.0.0+
elevation number Base elevation in meters (You can use whatismyelevation.com to find out the base elevation for your location) yes * yes
freq number Use period 25 (ms) no v0.1.0-v1.0.0
period number Milliseconds. The rate in milliseconds to emit the data event 25 (ms) no v2.0.0+

* If elevation is omitted, the value of the feet and meters properties will be null. When elevation is included, there is a 3 second calibration window before all values are reported.

Using the Arduino shield

(Without a specified elevation)

const five = require("johnny-five");
const Weather = require("j5-sparkfun-weather-shield")(five);
const board = new five.Board();
 
board.on("ready", () => {
  const weather = new Weather({
    variant: "DEV-13956",
    period: 200
  });
 
  weather.on("data", () => {
    const {
      celsius,
      fahrenheit,
      kelvin,
      pressure,
      relativeHumidity,
      lightLevel 
    } = weather;
 
    console.log("celsius: %d°C", celsius);
    console.log("fahrenheit: %d°F", fahrenheit);
    console.log("kelvin: %d°K", kelvin);
    console.log("pressure: %d kPa", pressure);
    console.log("relativeHumidity: %d RH", relativeHumidity);
    console.log("lightLevel: %d%", lightLevel);
    console.log("----------------------------------------");
  });
});

(With a specified elevation)

const five = require("johnny-five");
const Weather = require("j5-sparkfun-weather-shield")(five);
const board = new five.Board();
 
board.on("ready", () => {
  const weather = new Weather({
    variant: "DEV-13956",
    period: 200, 
    // Set your base elevation with a value in meters,
    // as reported by http://www.whatismyelevation.com/.
    // `5` is the elevation (meters) of the
    // Bocoup office in downtown Boston
    elevation: 5,
  });
 
  // Including elevation for altitude readings will
  // incure an additional 3 second calibration time.
  weather.on("data", () => {
    const {
      celsius,
      fahrenheit,
      kelvin,
      pressure,
      feet,
      meters,
      relativeHumidity,
      lightLevel 
    } = weather;
 
    console.log("celsius: %d°C", celsius);
    console.log("fahrenheit: %d°F", fahrenheit);
    console.log("kelvin: %d°K", kelvin);
    console.log("pressure: %d kPa", pressure);
    console.log("feet: %d'", feet);
    console.log("meters: %d", meters);
    console.log("relativeHumidity: %d RH", relativeHumidity);
    console.log("lightLevel: %d%", lightLevel);
    console.log("----------------------------------------");
  });
});

Using the Photon shield

(Without a specified elevation)

const Particle = require("particle-io");
const five = require("johnny-five");
const Weather = require("j5-sparkfun-weather-shield")(five);
const board = new five.Board({
  io: new Particle({
    token: process.env.PARTICLE_TOKEN,
    deviceId: process.env.PARTICLE_PHOTON_DEVICE_ID
  })
});
 
board.on("ready", function() {
  var weather = new Weather({
    variant: "DEV-13674",
    period: 200
  });
 
  weather.on("data", () => {
    const {
      celsius,
      fahrenheit,
      kelvin,
      pressure,
      relativeHumidity,
      lightLevel 
    } = weather;
 
    console.log("celsius: %d°C", celsius);
    console.log("fahrenheit: %d°F", fahrenheit);
    console.log("kelvin: %d°K", kelvin);
    console.log("pressure: %d kPa", pressure);
    console.log("relativeHumidity: %d RH", relativeHumidity);
    console.log("lightLevel: %d%", lightLevel);
    console.log("----------------------------------------");
  });
});

(With a specified elevation)

const Particle = require("particle-io");
const five = require("johnny-five");
const Weather = require("j5-sparkfun-weather-shield")(five);
const board = new five.Board({
  io: new Particle({
    token: process.env.PARTICLE_TOKEN,
    deviceId: process.env.PARTICLE_PHOTON_DEVICE_ID
  })
});
 
board.on("ready", () => {
  const weather = new Weather({
    variant: "DEV-13674",
    period: 200,
    // Set your base elevation with a value in meters,
    // as reported by http://www.whatismyelevation.com/.
    // `5` is the elevation (meters) of the
    // Bocoup office in downtown Boston
    elevation: 5,  
  });
 
  // Including elevation for altitude readings will
  // incure an additional 3 second calibration time.
  weather.on("data", () => {
    const {
      celsius,
      fahrenheit,
      kelvin,
      pressure,
      feet,
      meters,
      relativeHumidity,
      lightLevel 
    } = weather;
 
    console.log("celsius: %d°C", celsius);
    console.log("fahrenheit: %d°F", fahrenheit);
    console.log("kelvin: %d°K", kelvin);
    console.log("pressure: %d kPa", pressure);
    console.log("feet: %d'", feet);
    console.log("meters: %d", meters);
    console.log("relativeHumidity: %d RH", relativeHumidity);
    console.log("lightLevel: %d%", lightLevel);
    console.log("----------------------------------------");
  });
});

Convenient serialization for data payloads:

const weather = new Weather({
  variant: ...
});
 
weather.on("data", () => {
  console.log(JSON.stringify(weather, null, 2));
});

Produces:

{
  "celsius": 24,
  "fahrenheit": 75.2,
  "kelvin": 297.15,
  "pressure": 125.5,
  "feet": 3.28,
  "meters": 1,
  "relativeHumidity": 48,
  "lightLevel": 50
}

Since the Photon shield does not include the ALS-PT19 light sensor, the lightLevel property will always be null for that variant.

NOTE

The examples shown here are provided for illustration and do no specifically indicate variant support. This component class is expected to work with any variant that has I2C support.
