MMM-OpenWeatherForecast - Replacement for MMM-DarkSkyForecast

[shiryu1031]

thank you so much for the awesome job.
however, may I ask how can I change the unit for the wind speed? I can’t seem to find where I can customize this.

@anubis273 how do you start your magic mirror?
I guess with either npm run start or npm run server
In either case, you should be able to see the logs that are generated in the console…

you may also want to try to change the log level in your config.js to a more verbose level than “ERORR” (which I believe is the default)

Nice Module.

But i dont get the german time format (24H) not working. And do you have any idea how to have the germany translation of the warnings?

Here is my config:

		{
		module: "MMM-OpenWeatherForecast",
		position: "top_right",
//		header: "Forecast",
		config: {
			apikey: "myKey", //only string here
			latitude: 53,            //number works here
			longitude: 10,          //so does a string
			language: "de",
			forecastHeaderText: "Wetter Vorhersage für ....",
			iconset: "3c",
			label_timeFormat: "k[h]",
			label_days: ["So", "Mo", "Di", "Mi", "Do", "Fr", "Sa"]
			}
		},

@oberfragger ok. Got sunrise working in german. There was a missing config line:

label_sunriseTimeFormat: "hh:mm",

and also with the time… also a typo (forgot the “hourly”):

label_hourlyTimeFormat: "k[h]",

I edited this to:

label_hourlyTimeFormat: "k[ Uhr]",

Still inspecting the storm warning in german…

@oberfragger

Still inspecting the storm warning in german…

same problem here, saw meanwhile some of this warnings in german but mostly in english. Looks like a problem on the provider side, when inspecting the called url in the browser the retrieved data is in english.

So this can’t be solved by the module.

@j-e-f-f Anyway to hide the special weather advisory? Really jacks up my layout, I took a look at config but nothing stood out.
Thanks

@dkhorse74 That’s the main header… hint…

:thumbs_up: Thank You

[karsten13]

so now i catched the situation where the alerts are in english and in german:

the data is coming directly from openweathermap, here the json-part:

[j.e.f.f]

@dkhorse74 that’s the main header for the module. Change it like this:

  {
    module: "MMM-OpenWeatherForecast",
    position: "top_right",
    header: "Forecast",  <— here
    config: {
      apikey: "a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8j9k0", //only string here
      latitude: 51.490230,            //number works here
      longitude: "-0.258810"          //so does a string
    }
  },

@shiryu1031 you can’t do that independently on the main units setting. OpenWeather returns mph for imperial, and m/s for standard and metric.

[j.e.f.f]

@swvalenti yes you can. The weather alerts are part of the summary section. OpenWeather returns such a short summary that I didn’t think it necessary to make two separate configure. Two ways to turn off the alerts:

• set summary : false
• if you want the summary but not the alerts, you can hide them in your custom css as follows:

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .weather-alert {
  display: none;
}

I think I’ll look at a way to truncate weather alerts so they don’t take up so much space.

[j.e.f.f]

@karsten13 I don’t think there is much I can do here. I’ve coded this module to explicitly pass through a language parameter, either whatever is set in your main MM config, or whatever you explicitly set in the module’s config. It seems that OpenWeather doesn’t translate the weather alert, but merely passes them on as-is from whatever source it gets them from. Which is why sometimes you’re getting only English, and other times you’re getting multiple translations.

Awesome thanks @j-e-f-f !

@j-e-f-f

Thanks Jeff!!

[shiryu1031]

@j-e-f-f I see, thank you for your help. I thought it can be done because the example picture on Github is in km/h, but for myself, I am only seeing m/s as you mentioned. I guess it can not be change from m/s to km/h?

[karsten13]

@j-e-f-f

I don’t think there is much I can do here.

yes, I’m aware of this. Sent a mail to openweathermap.org and will let you know if I ever get a response …

Did anyone have an idea how to chage the timeformat from sundown?
Now its displayed: 6:20… i want to have 18:20
I already changed the rest.

[karsten13]

@oberfragger

label_sunriseTimeFormat: "k:mm",

[OberfragGER]

@karsten13 said in MMM-OpenWeatherForecast - Replacement for MMM-DarkSkyForecast:

label_sunriseTimeFormat: “k:mm”,

Not working: :(

			iconset: "3c",
			label_hourlyTimeFormat: "k[ Uhr]",
			label_sunriseTimeFormat: "hh:mm",
			label_sunsetTimeFormat: "k:mm",
			label_days: ["So", "Mo", "Di", "Mi", "Do", "Fr", "Sa"]
			}

i also tried:

label_sunsetTimeFormat: "hh:mm",

also not working. The sunset on top is still not in german timeformat.

label_sunsetTimeFormat

there is no property label_sunsetTimeFormat, only label_sunriseTimeFormat, remove the not existing one …
