MMM-DynamicWeather Failed getting api: 401

[sdetweil]

@JohnGalt yes, but its unlikely to be updated by the author, but you have the pull request as a substitute/the update

@sdetweil – OK, so I did install the pull request, and it’s not working. After following the steps above, I still get errors:

Actions taken:
   - git fetch origin pull/52/head:with_30_apikey
   - realized I misread the instructions, so went back, and did the reset...
   -  git reset --hard HEAD 
    - git fetch origin pull/52/head:with_30_apikey
    - enable module in config.js
   - pm2 restart MM ]

Results as shown in pm2 logs, which was running at the time:

@JohnGalt said in MMM-DynamicWeather Failed getting api: 401:

- git fetch origin pull/52/head:with_30_apikey
- enable module in config.js

oops… I forgot a step

- git fetch origin pull/52/head:with_30_apikey
- get checkout with_30_apikey   <==== THIS STEP
- enable module in config.js

I just tested on my system and it worked ok

I REALLY dont’t like the module shipping node_modules folder, cause if this is one a different platform it will cause trouble
so I would do (and did event tho it worked)

cd ~/MagicMirror
sudo rm -rf node_modules
npm install 

my test config

  {
     module: "MMM-DynamicWeather",
     position: "fullscreen_above",
     config: { // See https://github.com/scottcl88/MMM-DynamicWeather for more information.
      api_key: "my 3.0 apikey",
      lat: "38.89511000",  // random
      lon: "-77.03637000" // random
     }
  },

@sdetweil --Sam, thanks!! for your patience. I do have this resolved, at least in one MM instance.

I did go back and commit the one command I missed as advised above, but still no joy. But then, …

Strangely enough while I WAS using a valid ver 3 API key, you were right in saying my issue was an invalid API key in the call… After doing the above I was still getting a 401 error, so I accepted that the computers were doing exactly what I was telling them to do [as opposed to what I WANTED them to do]. I discovered the root cause after copying in the API key again and comparing. What I found was this:

 apiKey: "123456789"

When it should have been this:

api_key: "123456789"

I’m not sure why I started using “apiKey” instead of “api_key”, but putting it the way the module wants it fixed my issue. Thanks again!

@JohnGalt awesome! computers are very picky!
