MMM-DarkSkyForecast - Yet ANOTHER weather module

@nobita @j-e-f-f did not advise that. With the current information, I don’t think that helps.
You need to check the error logs as jeff hinted at by one of the ways described here in the forum several times.
One quick way is running the mirror with the command

npm start dev

and looking if there is an error message showing up on your console or in the browser if you access the mirror from another computer.

dumb question I’m sure but when placing this in the config.js I should get rid of the default weather program, right?

sdetweil

@motdog you could leave them both in for a little while to check that they both say the same thing!

motdog

@sdetweil I tried that & could not get dark sky to show up at all. That’s why I am confused

sdetweil

@motdog me too… can u open the developers console, and see if there are any errors?

either ctrl-shift-i (letter i) while MM is running,
or

npm start dev

to start with the dev console…

then select the console tab in the right handle white pane. scroll up to find any errors… in red text usually

You don’t have to. It will just mean you’ll have weather information from two sources. But one wouldn’t (shouldn’t ?) conflict with the other.

@j-e-f-f thats what I thought. Im just having all sorts of weird issues with both weather modules. I may just need to redo them

motdog

Ive got it up but when I change “table” to “tiled” I get a config error when I restart.

When I add units: us I get an error. Ugh.

This works```
//your cod {
module: “MMM-DarkSkyForecast”,
header: “Weather”,
position: “top_right”,
classes: “default everyone”,
disabled: false,
config: {
apikey: “*********”,
latitude: “38.751389”,
longitude: “-90.565948”,
iconset: “4c”,
concise: true,
forecastLayout: “table”
}
},e here
