@Mykle1 Thanks for the MMM-UFO “templates”. This really helped me to get started.

You’re welcome, mate. And with @sdetweil and @Sean you found the best help possible. :thumbsup:

Well, I just took a look at the api and it is down, as you already discovered. There is nothing I can do about that. However, I will take a look around and see if I can find another. Unknown if I will be able to find one but give me some time. No promises. I will do my best.

@Mykle1 thanks for your prompt reply and support. I am looking at your API information to compare with your tutorial in the module so that I know what parameter to change. It’s fine if you can share the API’s data/code, doesn’t really need to repair the link or find another. let me know if you can recall back from any previous code in storage. Appreciate!

I’m not really sure what you are asking me for. The API is dead so there is nothing that I can give you. The link is good but the API is dead so there is no repairing it. :-/

@Mykle1 Understood. I am actually trying to create my module for the Singapore weather forecast via API --“https://api.data.gov.sg/v1/environment/4-day-weather-forecast”.
I am new to MM as well as JS, so I do like to learn the way you code for the API, so I can get the idea to code my own.
Anyway, I will find another example to continue my coding.
Thanks. -

Anyway, I will find another example to continue my coding.First, you should aspire to learn how others code. I have a basic understanding of coding but I manage to make things work, usually. Only with the help and guidance of others have I managed to create some modules. Anyway . . .
The url you have for the weather data is working. Great! I took the data and ran it through the json viewer. I assume you did the same as per the instructions in the UFO module readme. By substituting the url and changing some naming in the node helper and js file you should be able to get the data. Setting up the divs should not be too hard either.
See what you can manage on your own and I will try to help you when you get stuck.
Paying it forward.
Peace!
