Weatherunderground - currently - hourly - daily - configurable

[Mitchfarino]

@KirAsh4 I used to be able to see them, even without my github account being logged in

I think it might be since the outage

[Mitchfarino]

@KirAsh4 just checked MMM-PIRsensor thread and I could see that

Same here, this one I cant see… others I do. My only solution is to go to github and search the module name or author.

@RedNax Hi, since a few days I am configuring my MM and it is a lot of fun with all the cool modules even for me as newbie. I like yours because it was really easy to get it running. But I have still some trouble to remove the decimal for the temperature.
I changed already the roundValue part to " return parseInt (temperature);" within the MMM-WunderGround.js which works before fine with the old currentweather and weatherforecast .
Furthermore I wuld like to replace the winddirection icons with the cardials “N,NO…”.
can you help me on this?

[RedNax]

@fireshipmate Hi!
The roundValue isn’t used (it’s a leftover bit from earlier versions). The temperature is displayed as it’s delivered in the weather underground payload. You could however modify the code and apply the rounding function to the temp:

			this.temperature = this.roundValue(this.temperature);

To get cardials “N,NO…”. you could use data.current_observation.wind_dir friom the wu payload which should have them in your defined language. You could assign:

		windDirectionIcon.innerHTML = this.windDirectionTxt;

You’ll have to take out the arrow, as it will otherwise rotate your winddirectiontxt to the winddirection :D

Or you could just do a git pull and have a look at the readme ;)

@RedNax Hi, I installed this module yesterday however, I received an email pertaining to my api key exceeding the allotted rate of 10 in which I had 22. I have the free plan of 500 calls. Should I decrease the updateInterval? If so, to what value?

thanks.

[RedNax]

Hi,

You went over the 10 calls per minute, probably while setting up/testing? The default settings won’t go over that when left alone. When you debug/play with :D your mirror through a browser on your pc and hit f5 a lot, you’ll go over it quickly. I’ve personally never had it happen.

[bennerzzz]

Yes, it said I went over 10 calls/minute while testing and perhaps refreshing the page caused it to do so. Anyway, thanks for the quick reply. Awesome module!

Great module, I have always preferred wunderground.

Thanks a bunch!

New version now shows the current moon phase and there’s a new layout option :)

in config set layout:“vertical” for the traditional layout:

or layout: “horizontal” for:

[yo-less]

@RedNax Excellent idea, I really like the new layout option. As soon as you have more than 4 days in the forecast table, though, you end up with a module that takes up a lot of your screen, I’d suggest adding a new table row every four days.

[RedNax]

@yo-less Thanks, i’ve added your suggestion :D

[yo-less]

@RedNax That was quick :D. Nice!
I’m still toying around with my fork of your module but I’ve made so many minor and bigger adjustments that it will be hard to simply merge the two module versions, as I would have to make every adjustment customizable in the config file to submit a pull request you could easily merge, but I will keep you updated on my progress.

@RedNax Thanks a lot for this beauty! Really love it :)
And the new horizontal design is an awesome idea as well!

I have a little remark anyway: In the text area it states the min/max temperature. From my personal point of view it should be either “°C” or “°” but not just “C”. Maybe that’s a localization thing…?!

[RedNax]

Thanks! The text area is reproduced as it is delivered by WeatherUnderground… so barring any heuristics on the actual content it’s beyond our control…

[yo-less]

@RedNax I managed to parse my way through it with some crazy regex stuff a few days ago (As this is the first time I have done this, it took me an insane amount of time to add the degree symbol only where it should be added), I know I keep saying this, but I will eventually push it to my MMM-WunderGround fork and then you can decide which of my features you would like to implement.

[RedNax]

@yo-less Wow, kudos… i consider regex to be black magic ;)

[yo-less]

@RedNax Thanks, my head certainly felt like it had been occupied with occult practices when I was done :D

[Plati]

@RedNax i have little question. I have a small question. If you want to update the module I have to copy the files manually from github? Is there a command or something that will do it automatically? Forgive the question, just starting to work with raspberry etc :)

[strawberry 3.141]

@Plati go into the modules directory and type git pull
