So that’s how it looks now.

Thanks! Great job
-
I made some small changes to the formatting of the date. It now looks like this:

Nice work and thanks for shareing!
Does the german wheater forecast provide an API? Are those warnings for a special region or a general broadcast for your state (Bundesland)?
I think I have look if the Swiss guys does too, usually they provide alot of datas (ch opendata) - Need those warnings too, especially for snow/icy conditions :).
-
Hey @tajno,
they don’t really provide an API. I did a bit of reverse engineering on their website and found that you can get a JSON file with all the warnings for Germany for a specific time.
This JSON contains warnings for all regions (Landkreise) of Germany.
If you find an API for Switzerland I can help you to implement it. -
@LukeCodewalker Very interesting module, will you add this to the wiki as well?
Also why did you make a custom header? Wouldn’t it be better to use the default header functionality?
-
@Jopyth Thank you. Yes I will add it.
Sure I will fix it soon. -
@weedorbeat good idea. I’ll put that on my list.

@weedorbeat hey,
do you have an idea, how the warnings should show for which region they are? Just making a header for each region would not be very nice in my opinion. My first idea was to put the region in brackets behind the warning. But i definitely want to keep the appearance of the module very simple/small. Another thing I want to implement is the starting altitude of the warning (like “Schneefall ab 400m”). But there i have the same problem: I don’t had an idea how to display it with keeping the module looking nice. -
@LukeCodewalker to display different things in a module, i implemented kind of caroussels in a couple of my modules to show only one part per time interval e.g. 20 seconds. this will result in a small display but can handle a lot of informations. in the develop branch is a new feature to extend the header defined by the user with custom values. you could add there the region.
