Trashcan Reminder

Tim_Brass · August 2016

App works great!

Only thing i'm missing the "rest" afval. Can only select GFT/Plastic/Paper.

Could this be added?

grazyfrog · August 2016

Hey, That is great to hear

The API I'm using doesn't have a very good documentation so I only tested the "trash types" for a couple of cities. Which city are you from (if you prefer, you can send me a message)? Then I'll try to add all the supported types for your area

Would be great if it is possible to add a iCal calendar. So more people can use it

grazyfrog · August 2016

okay, rest trash has been added(and a few, less common, types of trash)! Thanks for letting me know.If there are any other issues feel free to PM/post it.

grazyfrog · August 2016

@jovink as in: you manually fill in the dates that your trash will be picked up?

Rocodamelshe · August 2016

PM sent.

Tim_Brass · August 2016

Thanks for the update!

No our city (and many others) has iCal files for all zip codes. http://afvalkalender.meerlanden.nl/app/index.php

When I tried this app yesterday, I got an errormessage telling me my city is not supported yet. But my address can be found by MijnAfvalWijzer.

JanH · August 2016

Feeling stupid but can anybody explain how the trashcan app can be used? I installed it and saved my address which seemed to be accepted by the app. And then? Create a flow? What will Homeys output be? Tnx for making me a little bit more an expert.

thayoung1 · August 2016

Create a Flow , put date/time card in when, put a trash card in the and column and some in the then (light Color or speech or what you want)

JanH · August 2016

@thayoung1 tnx! I will try tomorrow

thayoung1 · August 2016

@JanH Glad I can help. A screenshot;

@Amelsfort That's odd... When you filled your address in on mijnafvalwijzer did you press demo perhaps?

robertbusscher · August 2016

@grazyfrog ;Had the same issue as Amelsfort

phb · August 2016

@grazyfrog Same issue as Amelsfort

grazyfrog · August 2016

@robertbusscher @phb @Amelsfort could you perhaps send me your postcodes? Then I'll take a look into it

Amelsfort · August 2016

Mine is: 5014PR, number 14.
The address cannot be found using the other site, so maybe that's the problem?

I have to admit, afvalwijzer is a bit weird at confirming if your house is valid. This is what it should look like(a green ga door). for every other house it does recognise the city and street (the color will remain orange) but it doesn't actually have trash data. it will only show you a demo page with "fake" trash data if you press demo.

grazyfrog · August 2016

@Amelsfort Hmm, yes your address should work. Let me check it out

Henk_Kuipers · August 2016

I am using IFTTT in combination with a webhook PHP script for this functionality. IFTTT uses my Gmail calender as a trigger and calls a webhook.php script on my linux server which will let homey tell me the appointment information. Works for any appointment without using any apps.

thayoung1 · August 2016

@grazyfrog Problem with Tilburg is that they combine waste types when collecting. So your class selectors are not valid / complete. You miss;
- restgft
- dhm

grazyfrog · August 2016

@Amelsfort I see the issue, it seems like your GFT and REST are being collected at the same time =P let me change that.

thayoung1 · August 2016

@Henk_Kuipers What about christmas / non standard collection times? I think you're missing on that one with your solution. Or is your Gmail synced with the source of the information?

Amelsfort · August 2016

@grazyfrog ;
That's correct. GFT and 'Rest' are combined in one single, splitted container. It would be very hard to collect them separately.

Same goes for PMD and Paper.

Jwoudenberg · August 2016

how about support voor HVC ?

https://inzamelkalender.hvcgroep.nl/

is it possible ?

grazyfrog · August 2016

@Amelsfort update is in pending approval. Don't forget to put your paper/PMD outside today

grazyfrog · August 2016

@Jwoudenberg I checked and it is definitely possible, I'll need to see how much time I have on my hands though. However, if you (or someone else) feels like contributing to the project, be my guest

JanH · August 2016

@thayoung1 tnx for posting the screenshot. I copied it but testing the flow gives a red cross in the app at the "and" function. No result though.
When I installed the app I checked "mijnafvalwijzer" and got the green screen as shown by @grazyfrog. My "postcode" is 6991kh.
What is going wrong or where I'm missing the point?

grazyfrog · August 2016

@JanH It doesn't pass the test now because the next collection date is 23rd of August (with paper being collected), the app will only check upto the day after tomorrow. So if you wait until the 21st and then test your flow it should pass the test.
