Official CommunityApp SDK2
[APP] Trashcan Reminder 2.0

Hi all,
This is the official app thread of the Trashcan Reminder 2.0 app. The app got some improvements like support for SDK v2 and support for a dynamically global tag.
Homey will remind you to put the trash out! You can do this by providing a postal code, house number and country (NL/BE) or enter the collection pattern manually on the settings page of the app.
This flow is triggered when the first person is coming downstairs in the morning. If any type of trash is collected it Greats that person and tells him what type of trash is collected today based on the global tag.

Supported Cities
Unfortunately not all cities work with the Trashcan Reminder, if you can find your house with one of the links below your house is supported:
- De Afval App
- Cyclus
- Afvalwijzer Arnhen
- Gemeente Hellendoorn
- Twentemilieu
- Recyle Manager
- RMN
- Afvalkalender Meerlanden
- Afvalkalender Venray
- Inzamelkalender HVC
- Dar Afvalkalender
- RD4
- Mijn Afvalwijzer
If your city is not supported you can always add your schedule manually. You can add new cities yourself, but requests to add new cities aren't honoured. If you wish to contribute to the project (for example by adding support for a city). I would advise you to take a look at this explanation.
Supported Cards
There is one card that you can place in the "then" column. The card let's you check if trash type X is collected << today, tomorrow, day after tomorrow >> or if any type of trash is collected << today, tomorrow, day after tomorrow >>.
Supported Speech
You can ask Homey four type of questions regarding your waste collection:
- When is the green container collected?
- What is collected next monday?
- Is the residual waste collected this friday?
- Which type of trash is collected next?
App impressions

When i enter postcode and number it stays on 'adres checken', we have Cyclus here and on their website the address is known.
Do you know what can be the problem.
There's an app for that: https://apps.athom.com/app/nl.netactive.homey.ical2voice
It's not recognizing my address although it's recognized by the cyclus calendar
So i entered the data manually.
This morning i received a push message that the blue container (paper starting next month) will be emptied, but i was expecting the green one. These are my settings and flow
What it does, it calculates all the possibilities. The term 'startend op' is not entirely correct. It is just a date used to calculate the possibilities. So it's now 4 weeks before the date, the trash is collected every four weeks, so that's also today.
According to the term it should be indeed starting over four weeks, but I couldn't find a better term then this.
I will let it run for a while and see what happens next week. Maybe i have to create a flow per trash event instead of using "iets".
Must say, it's a very useful app, thank for creating it.
I only want to get a notification IF there is something, not every day.
While looking to fix an already supported API (Cyclus NV), I found that most Dutch websites use the same construction. So I also included RMN in the new version
This might give some possibility for other trash websites in the Netherlands (that use iCal files, @jovink, cause Cyclus and RMN are using iCal files as well).
Still got to make some fixes in this version. Some data is lost, and often the labels aren't set.
The problems are quite diverse so I will try to organize them and find some time somewhere
I only have a screenshot of the error because the app is restarted by Candy when it crashes.
To do this, go to Settings --> Trashcan Reminder 2.0 --> Update your postal & zipcode, set the API to "Unknown" --> Press Save.
If this shows unsupported, then update to a random working postal or zipcode (e.g. 3436 HT 11, 13, 15). And after that update back to your own zipcode (remember to set the API to Unknown every time).
I think an uninstall of the app and re-install should clear the settings (as a work around for now).

I see that for some addresses they do have data online again, so I uncommented it and submit the new version to Athom for approval. Will be online soon.
The app is working good for my gemeente, it uses 'MijnAfvalwijzer'. When some trahs is collected, Homey sends a push notification to my phone the evening before. But yesterday, I don't get a push notification.
Normally, the PMD afval in my city is colletced on a monday. But beceause of easter monday, the PMD trahs was collected today. If I look on the website 'MijnAfvalwijzer', it says PMD is collected on the 31st of march, so that is ok. If I look at the tag in the flowmanager, the tag contains 'No trash collected today'. Is this a bug or is this due the API?
All my garbage meldingen works fine, exeped PMD.
What ever i tried, It does not work .
I thougt it was my mistake so i never reported.
@MrDutchfighter wil jou please look at this? Rest of the app is perfect fine.
