MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast stuck on Loading....

This is really funny, I downloaded the right module now, tested with my key, and now it is saying the key is invalid, this is the code I’m using

{
                       module: "weather",
                       position: "top_right",
                       header: "Weather Forecast",
                       config: {
                               weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
                               type: "forecast",
                               location: "Suwanee",
                               locationID: "4225309",
                               apiKey: "Mykey"
                       }
               },


               {
                 module: "MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast",
                 header: "Weather",
                 position: "top_right",
                 classes: "default everyone",
                 disabled: false,
                 config: {
                   apiKey: "Mykey",
                   latitude: 51.506130,
                   longitude: -0.090270,
                   iconset: "4c",
                   concise: false,
                   forecastLayout: "table"
                 }
               },

This is the error I get

[29.08.2022 09:07.47.834] [LOG] [MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast] 29-Aug-22 09:07 ** ERROR ** No API key configured. Get an API key at https://openweathermap.org/api/one-call-api

I tried the Latitude and Longitude with and without quotes.

@bassin12 this module uses all lowercase for the key name field

apikey:

this system is case sensitive

bassin12 · Aug 29, 2022, 2:41 PM

I did the code change in node_helpe.js, and the system now reports this error

@bassin12 yep… something…
both work for me…

sdetweil · Aug 29, 2022, 2:57 PM

@bassin12

hm… I created a new key…

seems OpenWeatherForecast has a bug

in its node_helper.js
’
change

          "&units=" + payload.units +

to (same as openWeatherMapForecast

                    (payload.units !== "" ? "&units=" + payload.units : "") +

can’t pass in junk

sdetweil · Aug 29, 2022, 3:23 PM

@bassin12 if the apikey is valid, I get 401 as well…

using my (new) apikey… all ok…

sdetweil · Aug 29, 2022, 3:45 PM

@bassin12 with that api key data is coming back, but its in the wrong format

i switch to my apikey and all is good

@sdetweil I deleted the MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast and reinstalled it as per the instructions. Results below, no change.

Am I doing anything wrong?

I think I was able to get to the bottom of this, you need to subscribe to the API giving your credit card information, also API 2.5 is deprecated for new users, I entered in contact with Open Weather and they have sent me this information.

Hope this helps people in the future.

sdetweil · Aug 30, 2022, 12:37 PM

@ally what instructions?

unless the author changed the code, nothing will change
