Changing icons of the modules Current Weather and Weather Forecast

[Manu85]

@sdetweil on my weather module I have an api key 2.5, I don’t know if that’s it but I have the impression that the weather data is wrong. Do you know of a weather module for the MM with current and forecast that would be graphically nice and free? because if to have version 3.0 you have to pay that doesn’t interest me, thank you for your help

@Manu85 in the console (where u start magicmirror, npm start )

you might see

[23.01.2024 12:12.22.384] [LOG]   [MMM-OneCallWeather] 23-Jan-24 12:12 ** ERROR ** Error: Unauthorized

if you are using the wrong api key

[sdetweil]

@Manu85 the page says v3 api, and 1000 calls per day free

[Manu85]

@sdetweil Yes I went to this page, but then they ask you for your bank card!!!

[sdetweil]

@Manu85 yes, they will charge you IF you go over the 1000/day… nothing is free anymore… you MUST provide a valid card, or the api key is not functional

[Manu85]

@sdetweil Thank you for your answer and you are right everything is charged today, fortunately there are still sites and people like you to share for FREE what they know

[sdetweil]

@Manu85 yes, but I don’t generate any pretty user interfaces!! no icons or graphs…lol

[Manu85]

@sdetweil Yes but it’s thanks to people like you that there is still communication without banking intermediary to build projects… I would therefore stay with my version 2.5 which is free while waiting for a developer to find a solution:- ) what bothers me is that the weather forecast with pretty icons etc. there are some on smartphones, cars, television, internet etc. and all this is free, as soon as you want to do something different you have to PAY :-(

@Manu85 said in Changing icons of the modules Current Weather and Weather Forecast:

version 2.5 which is free while waiting for a developer to find a solution:- )

the problem is that the provider (openweathermap), is only providing v3 api keys now for the OneCall api used by the module.

SO… there is nothing the developer can do to get around that.

openweathermap is no longer issuing 2.5 api keys

@sdetweil I found a post from March 2023 where we talk about you on the same subject 😉
