      @Egnos if u didn’t have apikeys from 2.5, then you only get keys from 3.0.

      now that I have signed up for 3.0 all new keys will be 3.0

      maybe pirate weather, which looks like the old darksky API is free for a while.

      I see a pull request in the darksky module to use the pirate weather API.

      git clone as normal
           or go to that module folder if already installed 
      git fetch origin pull/38/head:pirate
      git checkout pirate
      

      then get a key from pirateweather
      your old darksky module config ‘should’ work unchanged…

      every provider is going to a charge model, maybe with some low volumes free ( for a while, til it costs too much to run)

        Hi there,
        after various tests I managed to get MMM-DarkSkyForecast to work again with pirate-weather.api.

        I followed the @dankerthrone guide on github:
        https://github.com/jclarke0000/MMM-DarkSkyForecast/issues/36#issuecomment-1407382499
        I’ll just add that it seems that the “beta” of PirateWeather is no longer available, so you have to select “Free Tier” and it works the same.

        I also tried install the following module but didn’t work (seems to have the same modify contained in the @dankerthrone guide but I don’t know why it gives an error… )

        Thank you @sdetweil for your valuable advice!

            Love this module.
            I have one question: how do I increase the icon size and temperature size and have it right-aligned ?

            Currently this is what it looks like (I know the icon has not loaded yet), and I’d like it larger and right-aligned.
            1656a683-9d59-458f-ae74-cf50b79569c6-image.png

            Any hints as to what I need to adjust within the custom.css ?
            Thanks

                @Trashbln there is no feature to do that, but you could add it pretty easily

                add a new property to the defaults section

                showAlerts: true,
                

                then later around line 350
                you need the alerts field for the return following

                   var alerts = [];
                   if(this.config.showAlerts){
                      if (this.weatherData.alerts) {
                       // for (alert in this.weatherData.alerts) {
                       //   alert.description.replace("\n", "<br />");
                       // }
                
                       alerts = this.weatherData.alerts;
                     }
                }
                

                in your config.js for this module config:{} section add

                      showAlerts: false

                  @sdetweil easier fix in css:

                  /* Disable alerts */
                  .MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .weather-alert .weather-alert-description,
                  .MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .weather-alert .weather-alert-source {
                  	display: none;
                  }
                  

                  The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"

                    Just updated my module to use the v3.0 API, but getting the following error:

                    [ERROR] [MMM-OpenWeatherForecast] 30-Sep-24 20:15 ** ERROR ** ReferenceError: fetch is not defined

                    Any idea why that is? When I copy/paste the URL into the browser, I get a response.

                      @kasperb what version of nodejs are you using?

                      what does the following command say:

                      nodejs -v
                      

                      The module was recently changed to use a nodejs internal method to get the data, but your nodejs might be outdated.

                        Thanks for the heads-up on MMM-OpenWeatherForecast as a replacement for MMM-DarkSkyForecast! I’m interested to see how it compares in terms of accuracy and features—has anyone tried it out yet?
