Wind Gauge with Compass
This is a dashboard widget for displaying wind speed and direction in one gauge.
The gauge takes three inputs from msg.payload
:
speed
(number)speed_unit
(string) - Any string you want displayed after the speed, e.g. MPH, KMH, KTS, etcdegrees
(0-360 to for compass direction)
An example input node is included. You can replace it with your own data source (e.g. wunderground PWS)
Tested on Safari & Chrome (sorry, I have no access to IE or Edge).
