Bah, sorry, I thought I tested that...

Does this work?

#!/bin/sh

temp="$(sensors|awk '/^Core/{sum+=$3;lines+=1}END{print int (sum/lines)}')"

printf "Temp: %s°C" "$temp"

yes that works, sorry for late reply been away from technology for a time.

cheers

temp="$(sensors|awk '/^Core/{sum+=$3;lines+=1}END{print int (sum/lines)}')"

EDIT: added lines variable to make the script work for any number of active cores.

Thanks.

Although with your edit i am getting this output ?

Temp: 318°C

Previous command without line var

Temp: 43°C

sensors output in full is..

~$ sensors
BAT1-acpi-0
Adapter: ACPI interface
in0:          11.74 V
curr1:         2.05 A

coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0:       +42.0°C  (high = +84.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 1:       +42.0°C  (high = +84.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 2:       +45.0°C  (high = +84.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
Core 3:       +43.0°C  (high = +84.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

nouveau-pci-0100
Adapter: PCI adapter
GPU core:    850.00 mV (min =  +0.80 V, max =  +0.95 V)
temp1:        +37.0°C  (high = +95.0°C, hyst =  +3.0°C)
                       (crit = +105.0°C, hyst =  +5.0°C)
                       (emerg = +135.0°C, hyst =  +5.0°C)

from what i can gather it is getting the 3rd column of temperature digits from the /Core/ output and dividing the sum by a factor of 4, would this be correct?

Yes, that's right.

#!/bin/sh

temp="$(sensors|awk '/Core/{lines++}{sum+=$3}END{print int(sum/lines)}')"

printf "Temp: %s°C" "$temp"

EDIT: added lines variable to make the script work for any number of active cores.

Same here.

Here's the line I'm using, not my work.
I recall getting the format right here at Dev1:

TEMPERATURES
${hr 2}
Core 0: +${hwmon 0 temp 2} C  $alignc Core 1: +${hwmon 0 temp 3} C
Core 2: +${hwmon 0 temp 4} C  $alignc Core 3: +${hwmon 0 temp 5} C
${hr 0.3}

Looks (sort of) like this:

TEMPERATURES
_____________________________
Core 0: +44 C   Core 1: +41 C
Core 2: +40 C   Core 3: +41 C
_____________________________

Best,

Your other scripts weren't printing an average of all four cores whereas mine is :-)

can you explain a little what is going on in that command?

from what i can gather it is getting the 3rd column of temperature digits from the /Core/ output and dividing the sum by a factor of 4, would this be correct? I would rather it didnt print a decimal place as it moves around too much in the panel, aka 51.75 to 52 etc.

Try

#!/bin/sh

temp="$(sensors | awk '/Core/{sum+=$3}END{print sum/4}')"

printf "Temp: %s°C" "$temp"

(Untested because my sensors doesn't show a "Core" column. This example presumes four cores with the temperature given in the third field, correct as needed.)

nice, thanks head on a stick. works for me, it seems out by 1 degree compared to my other scripts but yours may very well be more accurate.

#!/bin/sh

temp="$(sensors | awk '/Core/{sum+=$3}END{print sum/4}')"

printf "Temp: %s°C" "$temp"

(Untested because my sensors doesn't show a "Core" column. This example presumes four cores with the temperature given in the third field, correct as needed.)

Figured out i think an easier script to calculate the average of sensors temp output from the awk command posted by fsmithred above.

Im fairly certain the maths is correct below but wondering if it could be done a better way and also how i could tack on the celcius symbol °C - to the end of the output?

#!/bin/sh

get_temp=$(sensors | awk '/Core/ { printf substr($3,2,2)"" }')

printf "Temp:" && expr "$get_temp" / 1000000

this command in the script..

sensors | awk '/Core/ { printf substr($3,2,2)"" }' 

now prints 8 digits like so..

44444744

edit: so output look like so from the script.

Temp:44

I like seeing the individual core temps. Here's the line I'm using:

${execi 8 sensors | awk '/Core/ { printf substr($3,2,2)" " }'}

and the output looks like this:

CPU: 42 36 40 41

That is a good one, i like to see the individual cores as well and this solves my issue with hwmon moving around. Thanks

${execi 8 sensors | awk '/Core/ { printf substr($3,2,2)" " }'}

and the output looks like this:

If you want this in °F you need to add an -f to sensors in the script and change out the celcius parts, i did it the other way around as this script was for °F originally.

needs bc package if you havent already installed it.

#!/bin/bash

# 1. get temperature

## a. split response
## Core 0:        +48.0°C  (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C)
IFS=')' read -ra core_temp_arr <<< $(sensors | grep '^Core\s[[:digit:]]\+:') #echo "${core_temp_arr[0]}"

## b. find cpu usage
total_cpu_temp=0
index=0
for i in "${core_temp_arr[@]}"; do :
    temp=$(echo $i | sed -n 's/°C.*//; s/.*[+-]//; p; q')
    let index++
    total_cpu_temp=$(echo "$total_cpu_temp + $temp" | bc)
done
avg_cpu_temp=$(echo "scale=2; $total_cpu_temp / $index" | bc)

## c. build entry
temp_status="CPU: $avg_cpu_temp °C"
echo $temp_status

exit 0

If the solution in that thread was ${platform coretemp.0 temp 1} my conky dzen2 says no such file,

conky: can't open '/sys/bus/platform/devices/coretemp.0/temp1_input': No such file or directory please check your device or remove this var from conky 

However it shows up as

cat /sys/bus/platform/devices/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon1/temp1_input

Maybe conky is looking in the wrong directory for that variable?
