Close box awnings (sunshade) when rain is expected

[Brnfnk]

I made a script that checks if it is raining or will rain in the coming 20 minutes. If so, it should close my sunshade using a Shelly Plus 2PM. However, I can't seem to find how to fix this and can't find any examples of how its done. I want to run my script in some cloud service provider like Google Cloud and let it check every 5 minutes. It should send a call to my Shelly device to close when rain returns True.

Can someone explain me what I'm doing wrong here? And point in me in the right direction?

 

import requests

import statistics

 

lat = 50.0

lon = 5.0

url = f"https://gadgets.buienradar.nl/data/raintext/?lat={lat}&lon={lon}"

response = requests.get(url)

raindata = response.text

 

rain_dict = {}

for line in raindata.splitlines()[:5]:

value, time = line.split("|")

rain_dict[str(time.strip())] = int(value.strip())

 

rain_values = list(rain_dict.values())

median_value = statistics.median(rain_values[1:5])

 

if rain_values[0] > 5:

rain = True

elif median_value > 15:

rain = True

else:

rain = False

 

print(rain)

 

# Shelly Cloud API-gegevens

shelly_cloud_url = < my url >

shelly_device_id = < my id >

shelly_username = < my username >

shelly_password = < my password >

 

def close_sunshade():

headers = {

"Content-Type": "application/json"

}

payload = {

"jsonrpc": "2.0",

"id": 1,

"method": "Switch.Set",

"params": {

"id": shelly_device_id,

# "auth_key": f"{shelly_username}:{shelly_password}", # Greyed out because auth is turned off

"on": True

}

}

response = requests.post(shelly_cloud_url, json=payload, headers=headers, verify=False)

if response.status_code == 200:

print("Sunshade closed successfully via Shelly Cloud")

else:

print("Failed to close sunshade via Shelly Cloud")

 

rain=True # Overwrite rain to True, for testing purposes

 

if rain:

close_sunshade()
