每秒读取一次读数时发出一次警报 Python

Question

I am working on a Raspberry Pi 4B and have a BME680 Air Quality sensor hooked up. My reading are taken every second and written to a MySQL database.

I want to be able to alert if the air quality, temp, etc. gets out of optimal range. The issue I am having is the sensor takes a reading every second so if I try to build an alert it goes off every second until the range is back to optimal. I am wondering how to alert only if the values change outside of a range.

# change this to match the location's pressure (hPa) at sea level
bme680.sea_level_pressure = 1013.25

# You will usually have to add an offset to account for the temperature of

temperature_offset = -1

while True:

    tmp = (bme680.temperature + temperature_offset)
    real_temp = (tmp * 1.8) + 32
#    print(real_temp)
    gas = (bme680.gas)
    humid = (bme680.relative_humidity)
    pres = (bme680.pressure)
    mycursor = mydb.cursor()
    sql = "INSERT INTO data (Temperature, Gas, Humidity, Pressure, DT) VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s, %s)"
    val = (real_temp, gas, humid, pres, formatted_date)
    mycursor.execute(sql, val)
    mydb.commit()
##    if ( tmp > 19 ):
##        subprocess.call(['python3', 'alert.py'])
#    else:
#        print ("nothing to do")
    time.sleep(1)

Here is my code. Again I do not want to call my alert.py every second that would over whelm the server I am alerting, I am hoping to alert once when the temp drops below 19 degrees Celsius.

Thank you

You can add a function to get the range in which the temperature is present. If the range has changed, send the alert again. Your state is the range in which your temperature falls.

Please see below:

import bisect
temp_ranges = [15, 20, 25, 30]
temp_states = ['Severe', 'Normal', 'Rising', 'High', 'Gonna Blow up!']

def get_range(temp):
    return bisect.bisect_left(temp_ranges, temp)

for temp in [10, 13, 15, 16, 20, 21, 25, 26, 30, 35]:
    print(f'Temp is: {temp}: Label is {temp_states[get_range(temp)]}')

Then call the function in your while True loop once you have calculated the temperature tmp . Like so:

state = temp_states[get_range(tmp)]
if state is not previous_state:
    subprocess.call(['python3', 'alert.py'])
    previous_state = state # define previous_state = None before your loop begins.
else:
    print ("nothing to do")
