quantiversal / cape-town-loadshedding-schedule Goto Github PK

Some seriously clever maths in that!

Have you fathomed a way or do you have a source for getting the loadshedding stage for the City of Cape town municipality? They are usually a stage better but that's a bit hit and miss for automation etc.

Thanks!

Not sure if this Repo is still active, but there is a small issue.

When the stage is set to anything greater than 4, then the areas returned is not correct...
This is manifested in a number of functions, but the root of the issue can be attributed to

getAreaCodesByTimeSlot(stage, day, timeSlot)

I'm not sure if my fix for this is appropriate, but after some debugging I simply added the following to the function:
after this line:
let areaCodeAcc = this._getAreaCodeAccumulationDayStart(stage, day) + timeSlot;
added:

if(stage > 4) {
    areaCodeAcc ++
}

Technically I did not do this in Java, as my requirement was to have similar functionality in python. Instead, I created a similar set of functions in a Python file. At first I thought I made a mistake in my code, but testing the Javascript rendered the same error.

Please feel free to add it to your repo if you want to. The files are attached.

Thank you for this... Would have taken me days to create the base logic you did, and I HATED the idea of using a lookup table!
