• Take a look at the post several replies up. I've gone ahead and written a plugin for my Vera 3 ZWave Home Automation controller that lets me poll the twine and use things like its temperate in applications. Just another hack along the same lines as …

• You could always code something yourself to monitor it. I've actually taken the Vera 3 home automation system, and made a plugin to link the twine to it.  It can be set to poll the twine at a specified interval, saving all the data from the device t…

• gs_version = radio firmware version date  (hover over your twine, the date here will match that shown in radio version) age = how long it has been since the twine last submitted an update ts = ?? possibly a timestamp for something? last_poll = ?

• For those who have a Vera 3 from MiCasaVerde, I just created a plugin for the unit that will poll the twine.  It saves the values in variables that can be retrieved later, and you can also request for a value to be returned when the polling function…

• Ok, you have to change the url to use twine.cc for it to report the items properly again.

• Hmm, I wonder if something changed again. Just noticed that the wget is returning most of the information except everything in the values section is blank. Any ideas?

• Ok, the URL I had used above, taken from the original post, will no longer work.  You will need to change the line in the script that pulls the JSON data to: /usr/local/bin/wget -o /tmp/log.txt --quiet -O /tmp/temp.txt --load-cookies cookies.txt --n…

• The URL listed above to pull the data down will no longer work.. To get the JSON data, you need to use: https://twine.supermechanical.com/REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_TWINE_ID/rt?cached= This just changed. The old method above will give you an error.

• Hmm, never mind.  The URL I had was different.  Strange.

• You can always use the JSON data directly giving the status of the twine.  Take a look here for a few ideas on using it: http://community.supermechanical.com/index.php?p=/discussion/189/idea-for-temperature-monitoring-app

• Looks like the link to fetch the JSON data from your twine is now dead.

• Try modifying the script here for scraping the info. http://community.supermechanical.com/index.php?p=/discussion/7/api/p1 Here is a version I did using the script and Thingspeak.com to store the data/trigger events. http://community.supermechani…

• Gary, you can put it on a server anywhere in the world.  The twine doesn't do anything with the script, it only reports the temperature to the Supermechanical.com site.  The script is run via a cron job and scrapes the twine's status and then upl…

• Gary,I've done something similar to what you are asking, using a bash shell script, ThingSpeak.com and Airgramapp's push notification service. Here is how it works: 1.  Use the twine.sh script from this post, with some slight modifications (checks e…

• I've taken the twine.sh script above and have the temperature (just the first two digits, since it temp is returned as a four digit number) sent to a channel on ThingSpeak.  I then have React and ThingHTTP setup to use the Airgram push service (like…
