WinLink API Extension

Adds a cron job which gets the latest poition reports of your callsing from WinLink and adds them to the database. New positions are stored in the database table called positions (see contenttypes.yml example).

Config

The following settings can be changed:

# amateur radio call sign
callsign: SM6UAS

# User name which owns the entries added by this extension
username: WinLink
email: nobody@example.com

# Schedule (hourly, daily)
cron_interval: hourly

Add the following contenttype to your contenttypes.yml:

positions:
    name: Positions
    singular_name: position
    fields:
        title:
            type: text
        callsign:
            type: text
            readonly: true
        date:
            type: datetime
            default: "2000-01-01"
        geolocation:
            type: geolocation
    relations:
        entries:
            multiple: false
            label: Select a blog entry
            order: -id
    show_on_dashboard: false
    default_status: publish
    searchable: false
    icon_many: "fa:globe"
    icon_one: "fa:globe"

Use

Postions can be fetched like any other content:

{% setcontent positions = 'positions' where { callsign: getCallSign() } orderby 'date' %}

Not the getCallSign() which gets the current callsign defined in the config

The twig function/filter geoString(geolocation) returns an array of two strings:

{% set geoString = position.geolocation|geoString %}

<div class="coordinates">Latitude: {{ geoString.latStr }} </br> Longitude: {{ geoString.longStr }}</div>

returns

Latitude: 57° 39' 59.4" N
Longitude: 11° 50' 37.8" E
