MMM-WeatherOrNot - Forecast

Re: MMM-WeatherOrNot
It’s possible to activate/deactivate the current weather e.g.

currentWeather: "true"/"false" ?

@bjoern If there’s nothing in the README about that, you can try to find out the elements id or class and give it display: none in your custom.css

.MMM-WeatherOrNot .someElement {
  display: none;
}

Thanks a lot, but it does not work.

.MMM-WeatherOrNot .currentWeather {
  display: none;
}

i don’t know why. it’s the corect element, in my opinion

I agree, the element selector is the right one.
It sits in an iframe, that may be the reason.
I don’t know how to get to the css inside the iframe.

Hi @bjoern - so I think this should be possible (although there doesn’t seem to be a way to configure it in the module’s config.js entry just now)

The MMM-WeatherOrNot readme says that the information it displays is pulled from https://weatherwidget.io/. If you go there and try adjusting the sample widget shown on the site, there’s an option for Current / Forecast, which you can set to Current, Forecast or Both. It looks like it defaults to Both, which I guess is what you’re seeing.

By trying the different options and clicking on the GET CODE button, I get a code block including either

data-mode="Forecast"

data-mode="Current"

or a block with no data-mode in at all, if I select Both.

If you look in the MMM-WeatherOrNot.js file you can see at the bottom where this codeblock to pull the correctly-configured information is sort of constructed, based on the values you’ve given in your config.js.

So it looks like you could theoretically:

add a new parameter to your config.js, e.g.

{
    disabled: false,
    module: 'MMM-WeatherOrNot',
    position: 'middle center',
    config: {
      location: "staten-island",
      dataMode: "Forecast",   // valid options are "Both", "Forecast" or "Current"

update MMM-WeatherOrNot.js to refer to the parameter - where it shows

/ Insert config options
		iframe.srcdoc = `&lta class="weatherwidget-io"

you could maybe include data-mode="${this.config.dataMode}"

Something like that anyway. And then it might allow you to control whether the Current weather is shown or just the Forecast using the config.
