calculation with table

[pioneersteffen]

Hi @all,

I working on a script to calculate the solar energy through the windows based on Solcast API. Therefore I defining the window parameters as tables and want to calculate the energy forecast for each window and write them to a new table (fe) for the window index. 

Unfortutately this writing to the table is not working, logs attached.

Can you please help me what I'm doing wrong?

Many thanks for your help!

Best Regards
Steffen

Code:

require('json')
https = require 'ssl.https'


appid = 'xxx'
lat = '52'
lon ='10'
azi = '170'
hours = '48'
format = 'json'


url = 'https://api.solcast.com.au/world_radiation/forecasts?latitude=%s&longitude=%s&hours=%s&format=%s&api_key=%s'
url = string.format(url, lat, lon, hours, format, appid)

res, code, headers, status = ssl.https.request(url)
log (code, status, headers)
data = json.pdecode(res)

--Fault messages:
if not data then
  alert('Error converting data')
  return
end

if not res then
  alert('Error collecting data')
  return
end

data = data.forecasts
