MMM-OpenWeatherForecast - Replacement for MMM-DarkSkyForecast

@karsten13 & @Biebermann

Probably not the most elegant solution ever, but I added the following jquery code to the index.html located in the MagicMirror folder which will check every 30 seconds for the text “There” in elements of the class "weather-alert-description " and will hide the parent element (so the whole thing) if found.

Since the English alerts usually start with “There” I can hide them this way and only leave the German ones

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>

<script>
	setInterval(function(){ 
		$('.weather-alert-description').each(function () {
			  if ($(this).text().includes('There')) {
				$(this).parent().hide();
			  }
		})
	}, 30000);
</script>

I’m sorry if this is stupid - but I’m currently showing extraCurrentConditions - high/low + precipitation. And precipitation shows in “mm” and I’d prefer if it could show in % how likely it is to rain/snow that day. So I know if I should bring an umbrella or not.

Is this possible? I tried using hourly forecast + extras and set that to 12 hours interval and only show one daily. But it didn’t work.

Thanks!

@j-e-f-f any way to hide the wind units in the hourly and daily forecasts? I’m finding that they’re pushing onto a second line when the wind speed is greater than 2 digits. I’d be happy just to show the number and not the units.

[j.e.f.f]

@rcberg3 sorry, the code doesn’t currently allow for this, nor do the units have their own CSS class that you can use to hide them.

You could instead increase the width of the module in order to give the forecast a bit more space to stop the wind units from wrapping to a second line. Instructions to do so are included in the readme.

@j-e-f-f Appreciate it! I added the nowrap to the css for now and it’s better.

Hi is it possible to swap warnings and extra weather info, like shown below ?

[cwong79]

I am a complete newbie. I followed the instructions exactly, I even did it multiple times to ensure it was done correctly. As during installation process, some warnings around vulnerability kicked up and I attempted to resolve. I removed the copy and reinstalled MMM-OpenWeatherForecast. I have the default weather module commented out and just running this module. I cannot get it working, not sure why. I copied the sample configuration and inserted the appropriate API key and Long/Lat. What am I doing wrong?

{
			module: "MMM-OpenWeatherForecast",
			position: "top_right",
			header: "Forecast",
			config: {
						apikey: "??????????", //SUPER SECRET
						latitude: 26.124161,
						longitude: -80.143593,
						units: "imperial",
						iconset: "3c",
						colored: true,
						concise: true,
						requestDelay: "2000",
						showFeelsLikeTemp: true,
						showCurrentConditions: true,
						showSummary: true,
						showExtraCurrentConditions: true,
						extraCurrentConditions: {
													highLowTemp: true,
													precipitation: true,
													sunrise: true,
													sunset: true,
													wind: true,
													barometricPressure: false,
													humidity: true,
													dewPoint: false,
													uvIndex: true,

						},
						forecastLayout: "table",
						forecastHeaderText: "",
						hourlyForecastTableHeaderText: "By the hour",
						showHourlyForecast: true,
						showHourlyTableHeaderRow: true,
						hourlyForecastInterval: 1,
						maxHourliesToShow: 10,
						hourlyExtras: {
											precipitation: true,
											wind: true,
											barometricPressure: false,
											humidity: false,
											dewPoint: false,
											uvIndex: false,
											visibility: false
						    		  },
						dailyForecastTableHeaderText: "Throughout the week",
						showDailyForecast: true,
						showDailyTableHeaderRow: true,
						maxDailiesToShow: 5,
						dailyExtras: {
										precipitation: true,
										sunrise: false,
										sunset: false,
										wind: true,
										barometricPressure: false,
										humidity: false,
										dewPoint: false,
										uvIndex: false
									 },

					}
			}

@cwong79 I added the code wrapper around your config info

to do this

paste your text.
select it
then push the button </>
above the editor window

@sdetweil thank you. Sorry, its my first post.

Darksky is no longer accepting new signups. Just an FYI

Re: MMM-OpenWeatherForecast - Replacement for MMM-DarkSkyForecast

I opened an issue on GitHub about the CPU consumption, anyone else with the same symptom?

Love the module, Is there a way to have the module show - Horizontally?

Like moving the Hourly and 5/3 day to the right side of the current? so 1 row with 3 columns.

Thank You

[j.e.f.f]

@airclown if you know what you’re doing with CSS this is certainly doable in your custom.css file. The module’s HTML is structured in such a way as to not restrict reordering through CSS

Hi all,
has anyone a suggestion how to move the temprature in tiled mode next to the icon in one row?
I mean just like in the picture given ?

I really don’t understand the syntax of the nunjucks part.

Hey guys in the alert status. I show the following 3 items

Excessive heat watch

heat advisory

small craft advisory

Is there a way I can eliminate small craft advisory
or just use heat advisory

When will Darksky fail to work anymore.
I have it running now and it works fine.
What am I missing?

[BKeyport]

@plainbroke If you have an API key from before Apple bought it up, Darksky still will work. They’re just not issuing new API keys any longer, and Apple seems to be wanting to put all of Darksky’s features into their own app, and use the API for themselves, so I doubt old keys are gonna go away any time soon.

[karsten13]

see https://blog.darksky.net/

[BKeyport]

@karsten13 Ahh, so rather than doing the API into the weather app, Apple’s decided to rewrite it completely. Good to know.

I just received an email last week from Apple saying that Dark Sky API will stop working on March 31 2023.

So you have a while yet before it goes belly up. And who knows… Apple might extend this out past the deadline.
