NINA

The NINA integration displays warnings from the Bundesamt für Bevölkerungsschutz und Katastrophenhilfe in Germany.

For each county/city it creates warning slots that change to Unsafe when warnings are present. The text of the warning and the metadata are stored in the attributes of the slots.

Important

This integration may only work with an Internet connection that supports IPv4.

Filter

The integration includes the possibility to filter warnings in two ways via a regex.

Note

All filters are applied to lowercase text only.

Headline filter

This filter filters warnings based on the headline as a blacklist. In other words, if the regular expression matches the headline of the warning, the warning will be ignored.

Default: Match nothing (/(?!)/)

Example

Ignore warnings that contain the word corona

Regex: .*corona.*
Headline: corona-verordnung des landes: warnstufe durch landesgesundheitsamt ausgerufen

Affected area filter

This filter whitelists warnings based on the affected area. In other words, if the regular expression matches the area, the warning will be displayed.

Default: Match all (.*)

Example

Show only warnings from the city of nagold.

Regex: .*nagold.*
Areas: gemeinde oberreichenbach, gemeinde neuweiler, stadt nagold
