MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast stuck on Loading....
-
@sdetweil I couldn’t choose the old 2.5 API when I registered as new user to OpenWeatherMap. Therefore I had no other chance than to go with the 3.0 API.
@chief depending on the API you are subscribed to, you need to edit the node_helper.js (as mentioned in my previous post). After editing you should restart your magicmirror.

the default weather module still uses 2.5 and it works
at the moment, yes.
I looked into their api stuff and onecall v2.5 is not mentioned anymore. The normal endpoints
weather
andforecast
are still on v2.5.Problem: For onecall 3.0 you need a special api key (as already mentioned here) with a subsciption where you have to give your payment data (1000 request free per day, limit is 2000 per day but you can set your limit to 1000 if you want it for free … ).
I think we will get problems/questions to this for the default weather module too.
So (for default weather module) if you use endpoints
weather
andforecast
and oldonecall v2.5
everthing works out of the box with old api keys, if someone use newonecall v3.0
he needs an api key for 3.0 and has to setapiVersion: "3.0",
in the config … -

Hi!
There was an error “** ERROR ** Error: socket hang up”
This solution helped:
in the module node_helper.jsvar url = "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall" +
replace with
var url = "http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall" +
(https -> http)
and restart the MM2 -
Was there an agreed solution to this one? Do we need to subscribe separately to the 3.0 API or does the free subscription doable (works with default weather module)?

Hello!
I use a free subscription. This subscription apparently has a problem with https protocol. Found out by randomly studying the weather server’s response in the browser. -
@elorand Hey man, I know this was a little while ago but I’m struggling with this atm. I subscribed to 3.0 but when I look at my services tab, it’s still showing the free version. When I create an API, it doesn’t seem to work even with editing the node helper to the url you posted. Is there a specific way to generate an API from them with 3.0?
-
@anhanyoung try my version. I fixed a loading bug a while back
-
@anhanyoung I see your key is 3.0, but the code uses 2.5.
module needs a new parameter to allow selecting which api group it’s in and use that when constructing the url
-
@elorand
This worked for me. Great work! -
@LemonBrain This is the solution! Thanks! No API 3.0, no apiversions. THIS IS IT! Thank you very much! It took me a week to find this!
