Working Weather Underground module?

[c1olli]

I tried out the MMM-ioBroker and this works properly.
IoBroker gets the Data directly from my WH4000ws Weatherstation with the module WLAN-Wetterstation from SBorg2014.

Next Step ist to install MagicMirror and ioBroker on one Raspberry Pi.

@c1olli Thats good to know there are some options.

Im thinking doing something along the lines of pulling Data from one of those “offline” systems and seeing if it is possible to integrate it into the new MagicMirror weather module.

The last couple of days Ive been re writing and simplifying the Wunderground module to just display the current PWS data pulled from WunderGround. more as an exercise in trying to understand NodeJS and gitHub.

my head is just about exploding :lol: but its getting there. I am not a programer by any stretch of the imagination. Im just sitting down looking at the code and try and work it out.

to start with I pick something obvious like Temperature and just look through the code and find where it appears and then try and work out where it comes from and where it goes.

It would be nice to have a better looking solution, combinated witch the “offline” data.
I can understand, that your head ist exploding, for me is it the same - if you are a little bit older and you can’t program than it is not easy (for me) to learn such things.
I’m happy when I can change little things and combinate such things that they are working for me.
The ioBroker module for catching the data from the weatherstation is here (in german): WLAN-Wetterstation

thanks for that, in German explains why I couldn’t find it.

Ive been working on the module just to display the weather station data with no forecast getting the data to display is no problem - getting it to display nicely is another story all together.

So im working through trying to understand how the HTML works and Style sheets etc.

I would encourage anyone to take some time to sit down and have a go at modifying a module. Its not easy when you first look at it but parts of it do start to make sense after a while.

OK I think I have got something worth having a look its basic but its there at least.

Ive got some ideas on further customisation ie changeing sizes of the parameters etc. but ill add those as I go.

Hey - looks pretty good :thumbs_up:

[Saabman]

I should mention in the config you can select which parameters to display

@Saabman Nice work. No issues running it, even with imperial display units!

My current workaround to get my weather station data into MM is via Home Assistant (HA).
Sweet, another home assistant/Magic mirror user. Check out some of my posts…

@Mitch1138 Im glad they were worth the effort ;)

@Saabman hi, i testet it with my data of my weather station and works fine.

[Mitch1138]

@saabman Just curious, is there a straightforward way to display the output in a row vs. a column - so you could display the weather along the bottom for example. Thanks, Mitch

[Saabman]

@mitch1138 At this stage no. But Ill see what I can do.

Ive started a Thread just for the “new” module which might be a good place to shift discussion about it to

@saabman Thanks, On my way.
