Flow description

Shows the live Pentagon Pizza Alert level on your 32x8 matrix.

What it displays:

  • Hand-drawn pizza slice icon on the left (always works, no icon download needed)
  • Alert level 5 (green, NORMAL) down to 1 (red, CRITICAL)
  • Age of the reading, e.g. 5 3' = level 5, updated 3 minutes ago. Turns orange if the data is older than 30 minutes. 100m+ folds to hours (2h, capped at 99h).

Data source: https://pentagonpizzaalert.com/ (hero level text). Polls every 15 minutes with a tiny ranged request, plus 3 quick retries on failure so the first reading doesn't hang.

Setup:

  1. Open your AWTRIX web interface (device IP or http://awtrixng-xxxxxx.local).
  2. Go to the Scripts tab, create a new script named pizza_alert.
  3. Paste the full script and press Save.
  4. It joins the rotation automatically. No settings, no configuration needed.
  5. While it shows ... it is still fetching; No data appears only after 4 failed attempts. Check the Scripts tab log (p:<level>=<status>) to verify polling.

Tested on AWTRIX NG 1.1.1.
