Oh, by the way, if you only want to read the data then you may not need
to mess with owserver -- just open the appropriate temperature file and
read from it. From shell scripts it is a simple as using cat:
$ cat /owfs/28.6618A2020000/temperature; echo
16.5625
If using some other scripting language, you can do something like (this
example is for Perl):
if (!open SENSOR, "/owfs/28.6618A2020000/temperature") {
print STDERR "Can't open temperature file: $!\n";
exit 1;
}
my $temperature = <SENSOR>;
close SENSOR;
$temperature =~ s/ *//; # " 82.7375" -> "82.7375"
# Do something with $temperature
