@johnnyboy most of the modules are listed here https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/wiki#3rd-party-modules

Also most of the developers have install instructions in their readme file

This module is what you are looking for https://github.com/RedNax67/MMM-WunderGround

1. Open the terminal
2. Go to the modules directory cd ~/MagicMirror/modules
3. Clone the module git clone https://github.com/RedNax67/MMM-WunderGround.git

(The following steps are not documented)
4. Go to the module directory cd MMM-Wunderground
5.As the developer did not provide a package.json file you have to manually install the dependencies, which are in this case request and moment, npm install request moment. If there is a package.json file you can just do npm install --productive which will install all dependencies defined by the developer or do npm install which will also download dependencies which are only needed for developing.

(Back to the documented part)
6. Add the module to the config

{
    module: 'MMM-WunderGround',
    position: 'top_right',
    config: {
        apikey: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxx', // fill in your api_key that you applied for on wunderground
        pws: 'pws:IGELDERL219', //add your location for the weather service
        hourly: '1',
        fctext: '1',
        fcdaycount: "5",
        fcdaystart: "0",
        hourlyinterval: "3",
        hourlycount: "2",
        alerttime: 10000,
        alerttruncatestring: "english:",
    roundTmpDecs: 1,
    UseCardinals: 0,
    layout: "horizontal",
    sysstat: 0
    }
}

Don’t add the semicolon as it is in the readme this will cause issues. Then restart your mirror

@johnnyboy if you have done npm install request moment than you can ignore the warnings about the missing file you’re good to continue, if you have done npm install --productive nothing happened because he cant read data out of an file that doesnt exist.
