Working Weather Underground module?

@sdetweil Thanks for that I had seen the error but it didnt stop the application from running for me so didn’t look further into it.
@chanster I had forked the orignal version and then only modified the Develop branch.
If you just do a git clone you will get the Master branch not the develop branch - Im only learning my way around Github -so I might be doing something wrong as well. But from what I can work out if you use the following command it should get the the develop branch
git clone --single-branch --branch Develop https://github.com/saabman/MMM-WunderGround.git -
@Saabman see the topic at the top.of troubleshooting about test fixes and develop.
gives instructions -
@sdetweil Thanks Ill look into it.
Just got the module pulling the forecast info into it - only displays it in the console at the moment but its getting there
-
@Saabman funny, one has to READ the message to reply properly…
git clone should get all branches, unless u specifically ask for depth=??1
u can get another branch with git fetch remotename remotebranch_name: localbranch_name
then git checkout localbranch_name should work -
After the new installation of MM, I installed the module and I can see some weather data from my wether station - really good beginning.
@sdetweil Thanks for the fantastic installation script.

Nice that some people are working on it. I want also my pws in the mirror, and willing to help, but im not able to program. But can test if necessary. I tried the module so far , and yes there are some signs of live in the module. Thanks already.
-
Ive been spending some time working out how to use github a bit better. Thanks for the tips sdetweil.
So havent progressed any further on the module.
What I have noticed is the original module MMM-Wunderground has quiet a lot in it - been able to choose different icons/color moon phase etc. which is not stuff that your PWS will provide. So thinking of doing a cut down version that just provides current weather data as provided by your PWS.

@Saabman Thanks again for all the work you have put into updating this module. Have you checked out MMM-Currentweather-MQTT ? I got it to work with my PWS. It takes an interesting approach of blending in data from PWS where available and supplements it with data from OpenWeather. It does require your PWS to publish its data via MQTT.

@chanster I Wasnt aware of that one, That would definantly be another way to go and not rely on an external API that will probably change :lol:
My Weather station is about 20years old and I use a Raspberry pi runnig WEEWX to get the data of it and onto WunderGround and I just had a look and found a MQTT “plugin” for WEEWX so it would be simple enough to do. I already USE MQTT for energy Monitoring so Im half way there.
Thanks for that

@Saabman That’s great! Once I got my MQTT feed up, this module worked very well to display the data from my PWS.
