MMM-OpenWeatherForecast - Replacement for MMM-DarkSkyForecast
-
@justbob audit fix forces changes, and many times drags in breaking changes that we can do nothing about.
we are not running a web site w hundreds of random users, and are not dragging in other page content with their scripts. we are calling apis…
so the risks for (y)our site is extremely small…
I don’t know the answer on openweathermap.
-
I am using MMM-DarkSkyForecast - everything was fine, but today the module is not loading anymore. Are there any changes or known issues? Do I have to swith to another module?
Thx, Chris
-
@chris1971 DarkSky is dead. You’ll have to switch. Apple bought 'em up and is shutting down the APIs.
-
Thanks for the Info. Hope that the switch to Open Weather will be smooth. Long time ago that I have modified something on the mirror…
-
there is a replacement API. same parns
just different urlwas posted here in the last few months.
no time to search right now -
-
@karsten13
I tried a new API Token from pirateweather for OpenWeather - but the module is not loading. Do I have to do some other changes next to the API?
The token is valid until April 22nd. Do I have to renew the token every month? -
@chris1971 pirate weather is the dark sky replacement.
openweather has a different API token
-
@sdetweil
pirateweather is another module next to openweather? Sorry for the dumb question…
Then I will try to go with Openweather acc. the description… -
@chris1971 no. pirateweather.net provides an API that looks like the dark sky API.
so the dark sky module could be made to work again
-
@sdetweil this would be cool. Will try and give a feedback soon.
-
I tried several API tokens from Pirateweather without success… But the old DarkSky APi is working again - I assume it will work only until March31st… :disappointed_face:
-
@chris1971 you would have to change the dark sky module to use the pirate weather url too
-
Do you have additional information what to change?
Thx -
@chris1971 no, but the pirateweather.net site would probably tell you

Tried to install MMM-OpenWeatherForecast acc. the description and got a lot of errors during installation:

After modification of the config and npm start I got a black screen and had to reset the system by disconnection from power supply. Any recommendations?

@chris1971 said in MMM-OpenWeatherForecast - Replacement for MMM-DarkSkyForecast:
npm ERR! node v6.12.0
npm ERR! npm v3.10.10WAY downlevel…
should be node 16 and npm 8
use my install script, it sets up everything…
see https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts -
I only have to type <“$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)”> in the command line and the Update will be done automatically? No changes to the existing System?
-
@chris1971 no type, just copy paste ( use ssh VM from desktop/laptop)
but still it’s a two part process, check by default, advise, make no changes
then rerun with Parm at the end to DO the upgrade
if you are ALREADY at the latest release, it will abort, unless that Parm is force

Awesome module! Question for you: I am using MMM-Wallpaper and some of the text can be hard to read during certain wallpapers. I looked in the MMM-OpenWeatherForecast.css file but did not see an obvious place to change the color for the text highlighted in the red boxes below. I would like to set them to white (#FFFFFF). Can you tell me where in that css to set that? Thanks for your help!
