<![CDATA[Magic Mirror Default Weather Module]]>I’m just getting started with my magicmirror project, and having varying success.
I’ve tried a couple of 3rd Party weather modules, but have settled on the default on as I like the simplicity of it.

I’ve managed to configure it to show the current weather, but want to be able to view a forecast. However following the config instructions etc, changing it to a forecast just results in it appearing as loading on the screen.

I’m using weatherbit.io as the provider and config.js is set as follows

module: "weather",
position: "top_right",
config: {
          apibase: "https://api.weatherbit.io/v2.0",
          weatherEndpoint: "/current",
          apiKey: "MY API KEY"
         lat: MY LATITUDE
         lon: MY LONGITUDE

weather.js

defaults: {
          weatherProvider: "weatherbit"
          type: "current",

this results in the correct display on magicmirror, however changing the endpoint to “/forecast”, “/daily” or “/forecast/daily” and the type to “forecast”, “daily” or “forecast/daily” just results in the loading icon.

Can anyone shed some light please?

Thanks

All tickety-boo now. Thanks for your help!

		{
			module:"weather",
			position: "top_left",
			config:{
				type:"current",
				weatherProvider:"weatherbit",
				lat:30.956,
				lon:-97.435,
				initialLoadDelay:1,
                                units:'imperial',
				apiKey:"your key"
			}
		},

both type:“current” and type:“forecast” work

in the MagicMirror folder do

npm run config:check

remove the API base and endpoint, don’t need to set them, the code does that

set the provider and type
(use the lastest release, 2.21, as we fixed a couple configs to always use the type)

also set the initialLoadDelay:1
