    Hey i have your module working but when i also add the MMM-Awsome-alexa module it moves to this location even though ive set it to display in the top_right. It goes into the right location when mmm-awesome-alexa is removed. Any ideas ? 0_1548268916774_problem.JPG

      @lavolp3 said in MMM-DarkSkyForecast - Yet ANOTHER weather module:

      If you want to ONLY show the wind direction you would have to manipulate the .js file manually in line 429

      Or you can write rules to hide things in your custom.css file. That way your change doesn’t get overwritten by a module update. I’ve wrapped everything in a css class, so you can pick and choose what is displayed. Start MM in dev mode and you can use the inspector to figure out the class names, or examine MMM-DarkSkyForecast.njk to see the HTML layout and the classes applied.

      For example, let’s say you wanted the wind direction, but not the max wind speed. First set concise: false in the module’s config. Then hide the max speed as follows:

      MMM-DarkSkyForecast .wrapper.tiled .forecast-container .forecast-item .wind-gusts {
          display: none;
      }
      

      Make sure to take a look at .MMM-DarkSkyForecast.css to see hoe specific the existing rule is. Yours needs to be at least as specific if you want it to override the default. For example, this would not have worked:

      MMM-DarkSkyForecast .wind-gusts {
          display: none;
      }
      

      since the existing rule is more specific:

      MMM-DarkSkyForecast .wrapper.tiled .forecast-container .forecast-item .wind-gusts {
          display: block;
      }

        This is strange behaviour… Does this happen regardless of where you specify awesome-alexa to be? For example if you specify that it should be bottom_center does it still mess up Dark Sky?

            from your info " …this module requires MagicMirror version 2.2.0 or later…"
            so How can I know my version of Magic Mirror?
            Thanks so much

              yep. Set units: "us" in your config.

                  and how can I doit this for german?
                  and when you say “…Set units: “us” in your config.”
                  where comes this in the config?
                  please take a look at my sample config

                  {
                    module: "MMM-DarkSkyForecast",
                    header: "Weather",
                    position: "top_right",
                    classes: "default everyone",
                    disabled: false,
                    config: {
                      apikey: "SUPER SECRET!!!",
                      latitude: "51.506130",
                      longitude: "-0.090270",      
                      iconset: "4c",
                      concise: false,
                      forecastLayout: "table",
                      units: "auto", < - - #### is this so right for german?
                      language: "de" < - - #### is this so right for german?
                    }
                  },

                        forecastLayout: "table",
                        units: "auto", < - - #### is this so right for german?
                        language: "de" < - - #### is this so right for german?
                      }
                    },
                    

                    My module doesn’t support the auto parameter for units, even though it’s valid for calling Dark Sky’s API directly. My thinking was that it’s ambiguous as to what you might get, and everyone will know exactly which units of measure they want. So you need to specify one of the four explicit options for units:

                    si : metric units. (temp in Celcius, wind measured in m/s)
                    ca: same as si but wind measured in km/h
                    uk2: same as si, but wind measured in mph
                    us : imperial units. (temp in Farhenheit, wind in mph)

                    If you specify anything else or omit the units config, the module defaults to ca. (Oh Canada!)

                    As for the language config, this is independent of units. This will determine editorial content that the API returns such as the weather summary, and eventually when I get around to adding it, weather alerts. If you leave it blank, it will use the language config for MagicMirror, so if you’ve already got MM configured for German, then you don’t need to set the language parameter to get this content in German. The parameter is there in case for some reason you want a language other than what you have MM configured for, or maybe MM doesn’t support your preferred language, but Dark Sky does, for example x-pig-latin for Pig Latin. (Seriously… try it!)

                      When I installed this module it did not import current region settings etc based on pi software install as I had to change them all in the config. I just thought I was an idiot and did something wrong when installing module and didn’t want to look like a fool posting an issue. HA!
