MMM-DarkSkyForecast - Yet ANOTHER weather module

[Hein-Jan]

@j-e-f-f ,

I am also stuck at “Loading” actually it says “Bezig met laden…” which is Dutch for “Loading”.

I ran the “git clone…”, switched to the “MMM-DarkSkyForecast” directory, and ran the NPM Install.
I do get this warning: “npm WARN mmm-darkskyforecast@1.0.0 No repository field.”, but I do not know how to act upon it.

The module is making calls to DarkSky, I see that in the Api usage.

The logs show no error.
This is the config:

		{
  			module: "MMM-DarkSkyForecast",
  			header: "Weersverwachting",
  			position: "top_right",
//  			classes: "default everyone",
  			disabled: false,
  			config: {
    				apikey: "XXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    				latitude: "51.5096192",
    				longitude: "5.6364183",      
    				iconset: "1c",
//				maxHourliesToShow: 4,
//				maxDailiesToShow: 4,
//				useAnimatedIcons: true,
    				concise: false,
//				label_timeFormat: "k[h]",
    				forecastLayout: "table"
			}
		},

I am not sure were I went wrong. Can you provide help?

Kind Regards,

Hein-Jan

Same here with “Loading” and nothing happens.

Seems to be a problem with lon/lat.

If i provide the example lon/lat it works.

looks awesome but doesn’t work with the coordinates of Berlin. It says “loading” but nothing happens.

{
  module: "MMM-DarkSkyForecast",
  header: "Weather",
  position: "top_right",
  classes: "default everyone",
  disabled: false,
  config: {
    apikey: "db7derpderpderp214eae3b0f6e",
    latitude: "52.520008",
    longitude: "13.404954",      
    iconset: "2m",
    concise: false,
    forecastLayout: "table",
    language: "de"
  }
},

I posted this on the GitHub page;

When I use the default Long and Lat, the module loads. London works as does Vancouver and New York however when trying Hawaii, Sydney, Paris, Cape Town, Moscow, Melbourne, and Wellington, the module will not load. Using https://www.latlong.net/ for Long and Lat.

When I use the same Long and Lat in this module that works with the Forecast.io module, the module won’t load. At first, I thought it was southern hemisphere’s (given the Lat is a ‘negative’ number) but that doesn’t appear to be the cause.

@j-e-f-f has updated the module on GitHub. Go to the module folder and update it via git pull.

If the error still persists, leave out line

concise: false,

from the config file. That solved it for me in the prior version.

I had the same loading issue after just installing it…but leaving out the concise line worked for me too

Beautiful module!
A bit too beautiful in my opinion since I’m currently putting a lot of work into MMM-forecast-io :-D

MMM-WeatherBackground supports MMM-DarkSkyForecast now. (Just set source as "MMM-DarkSkyForecast")
Thanks @j-e-f-f again.

Awesome!!! Just want I want after WeatherUndergrown stops its free api.

I have it working but it takes up my entire screen even thought its set to top_right. And I cant get it to take any config changes, like table vs tiled.

{
  module: "MMM-DarkSkyForecast",
  header: "Weather",
  position: "top_right",
  classes: "default everyone",
  disabled: false,
  config: {
    apikey: "xxxx",
    latitude: "xxxx",
    longitude: "-xxxx",      
    iconset: "4c",
    concise: false,
    forecastLayout: "table"
  }
},

Any idea why this would happen?

Had already the newest version, but leaving out concise: false did the trick. Thanks!
