MMM-DarkSkyForecast - Yet ANOTHER weather module

[richland007]

@j-e-f-f Thank you for this nice weather module :)
I do have a strange occurrence happening however… no matter if i use ca, us, si for units in front of every high temperature number i get a square… the temperature is displayed along with that square … what is that??

Oh another thing …how can i make the background of your module non transparent/black or semi transparent?? I am trying to use the @Sean MMM-WeatherBackground and the majority of pictures are too bright to read this module.

Try this in your custom.css file:

.MMM-DarkSkyForecast .module-content {
  background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
}

The first three parameters 0,0,0 are the color (in this case black), and the last parameter 0.5 is the level of transparency. Adjust accordingly to suit your needs.

No idea why this is happening, but it generally means that the browser is trying to render a character that is outside of the character set.

Can you PM me with your config? I wonder if the data is providing those characters.

@j-e-f-f Thank you for your reply.
Do you want my entire MM config.js file or just the MMM-DarkSkyForecast part of it??

@j-e-f-f any way I can see the wind direction too?

@cr4z33 it is shown if you include

concise: false 

into the config.
That’s the way to show more info.
If you want to ONLY show the wind direction you would have to manipulate the .js file manually in line 429

      windSpeed: Math.round(speed) + " " + this.getUnit("windSpeed") + (!this.config.concise ? " " + this.getOrdinal(bearing) : ""),

into

      windSpeed: Math.round(speed) + " " + this.getUnit("windSpeed") + " " + this.getOrdinal(bearing),

In my case this unfortunately messes up the layout a bit. But it seems to work.
