MMM-BMW-DS (A different kind of weather module)

[Mykle1]

Due to Weather Underground closing its free API, and at the suggestion of @cowboysdude, I’ve rewritten MMM-BMW to work with the Darksky api, which still offers a free plan.

Description:

Bugger My Weather - Darksky

• This was designed for use in the bottom_bar position of your MagicMirror

• Can share bottom bar position with newsfeed module via Hello_Lucy

• CSS provided for coloring and sizing. Make it your own.

• 6 Built in font choices

@cowboysdude was kind enough to show me one way of using different fonts in my module. My gratitude to him. Here’s a look. Simply click the image for an expanded, more pleasing view.

I like this. It’s tight and conveys a lot of information in little real estate.

I like it, then I unliked it…then I liked it again LOL

Here is my config.js entry, showing my lat and long

{
	disabled: false,
	module: "MMM-BMW-DS",
	position: "bottom_bar",      // bottom_bar is best
	config: {
		apiKey: "YOUR API KEY GOES HERE", // Free API key @ darksky.net
		tempUnits: "F",  // C of F
                lat: '40.123456', 
                lng: '-74.123456',  
	        useHeader: false,   // true if you want a header                 
		header: "Your header",
		maxWidth: "100%",
		}
	},

Thank you Mykle1, but I live in Germany. Koord: N48… and E008…

If I put in my Koordinates I get the message “Boring Weather”, but If I take the darksky.net I get the right values:

https://api.darksky.net/forecast/7146c1592f88d9179586e0fa404aad4b/49.0069,8.4034

any Idea?
thanks and best regards
