How to specify the Weather Type in a module which only uses the module name

[OldSunGuy]

I saw the following error msgs:

[21.04.2021 15:12.39.799] [LOG]   Connecting socket for: currentweather
[21.04.2021 15:12.39.800] [WARN]  The module 'currentweather' is deprecated in favor of the 'weather'-module, please refer to the documentation for a migration path
[21.04.2021 15:12.39.802] [LOG]   Connecting socket for: weatherforecast
[21.04.2021 15:12.39.803] [WARN]  The module 'weatherforecast' is deprecated in favor of the 'weather'-module, please refer to the documentation for a migration path

So I started looking at the documentation.

I couldn’t find how to specify the forecast weather type for one slide, and the current weather type for another slide in the MMM-Carousel which my MM currently uses.

Can somebody tell me?

Here is my config of MMM-Carousel:

{ 
 module: "MMM-Carousel",
 config: { 
          transitionInterval: 10000, 
          ignoreModules: ['alert', 'updatenotification', 'MMM-NewsFeedTicker'],
          mode: 'slides',
          slides: [
                   ['clock', 'calendar'],
                   ['clock', 'calendar', 'MMM-NetworkScanner'],
                   ['currentweather', 'weatherforecast', 'MMM-NetworkScanner'],
                   ['currentweather', 'weatherforecast', 'compliments'],
                   ['clock', 'calendar', 'compliments'],
                   ['clock', 'calendar', 'MMM-MoonPhase'],
                   ['currentweather', 'weatherforecast', 'MMM-MoonPhase'],
                   ['currentweather', 'weatherforecast']
         ]
 }
},

Can someone think of a way to use the new weather module in situation?

Hi @sdetweil , Thanks for replying.

I am trying to migrate from the currentweather and weatherforcast modules to the new weather module.

I am using the MMM-Carousel module. It seemed strange (to me) to use the same module name. I was attempting to show the weather module with type=current on one slide and the weather module with type=forecast on another slide but with the same position. There didn’t seem to be any way to do this. I’ve since modified the config to use different positions so that a slide shows both current and forecast using the different positions.

It kinda works as I am getting the correct header but it just shows “Loading…” ,

@oldsunguy yeh… it should support using the identifier as well as the name… that would make things a lot easier…
