MMM-OpenWeatherForecast - Replacement for MMM-DarkSkyForecast

sdetweil

@chris1971 no. pirateweather.net provides an API that looks like the dark sky API.

so the dark sky module could be made to work again

chris1971

@sdetweil this would be cool. Will try and give a feedback soon.

chris1971

I tried several API tokens from Pirateweather without success… But the old DarkSky APi is working again - I assume it will work only until March31st… :disappointed_face:

sdetweil

@chris1971 you would have to change the dark sky module to use the pirate weather url too

chris1971

Do you have additional information what to change?
Thx

sdetweil

@chris1971 no, but the pirateweather.net site would probably tell you

After modification of the config and npm start I got a black screen and had to reset the system by disconnection from power supply. Any recommendations?

WAY downlevel…

should be node 16 and npm 8

use my install script, it sets up everything…
see https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

I only have to type <“$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/upgrade-script.sh)”> in the command line and the Update will be done automatically? No changes to the existing System?

sdetweil

@chris1971 no type, just copy paste ( use ssh VM from desktop/laptop)

but still it’s a two part process, check by default, advise, make no changes

then rerun with Parm at the end to DO the upgrade

if you are ALREADY at the latest release, it will abort, unless that Parm is force
