City of Tshwane

[Jacquedebie]

Hi, when I'm trying to add Load Shedding to HA it pops up the configuration where I need to search for my suburb. When I search for my Suburb (Villeria in Pretoria) it doesn't pick it up.

It only show these results.

Is there any place where I can Edit the Suburb id in code? To use my Suburb ID? Or am I using this wrong? http://loadshedding.eskom.co.za/LoadShedding/GetSurburbData/?pageSize=1000000&pageNum=1&searchTerm=Villeria&id=167 { "Results": [ { "id": "1027184", "text": "Villeria", "Tot": 0 } ], "Total": 1 }

Thx

I filter out suburbs where Tot is 0, because this means that it's not an Eskom Direct suburb and there are no schedules for it. You can confirm this by seeing that it's not available on https://loadshedding.eskom.co.za/

Try searching for another suburbs that has the same schedule as yours.

Looks like City of Tshwane Schedules will need to be added to https://gitlab.com/wernerhp/load-shedding/-/issues/6

No guarantees when that will happen though. Happy to accept pull requests.

I would be willing to add a $20 bounty on this, as I don't do python

Did some work on using EskomSePush API this weekend. Just need to clean things up a bit.

That is good news! I have tried all of the possible combinations of the other providers, and there is always a deviation from the actual pretoria schedules.

My alternative was just to get a loadshedding sensor, but prefer a software solution.

@Pho3niX90 Please try v1.0.0

I have installed this addon, I am also in Villieria, Pretoria. It works correctly now.
