Weather not working

[KI6UVE]

@sdetweil
I took out the endpoint line and that fixed the parsing error, but still no weather. I rechecked my api key and it is correct. Any other ideas? Thanks!!

@KI6UVE open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i, then select the console tab and put weath in the filter field

is this an openweather v 3 apikey, that u had to provide a credit card to get?

if so, add

apiVersion:'3.0',

to the weather config section

@sdetweil
No luck. I noticed you used ‘ ‘ instead of “ “ for the ‘3.0’. I used “ “ for all my other variables, such as type: “forecast”. Is that correct?

The doc file doesn’t have any notation for how the lat/Lon is presented. Should that read…lat: ‘33.3025’ or nothing as it would imply in the doc file, I.e., lat: 33.3025

@KI6UVE lat and lng are numbers, so no quotes. either type is ok as long as they match

@sdetweil
No luck with that. Should the apiVersion be in ‘ ‘ or raw? Is there a different weather app api that is easier to configure?

[sdetweil]

@KI6UVE I just did this

		{
			module: "weather",
			position: "top_right",
			config: {
				weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
				type: "current",
			//	location: "New York",
			//	locationID: "5128581", //ID from http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/city.list.json.gz; unzip the gz file and find your city
				apiKey: ".....",
				lat:30.xxxxxx,
				lon:-97.xxxxxx
			}
		},

and it worked (top right)

and the other used locationID… with my apiKey

@KI6UVE

if you open the developers window using the instructions i gave before, do you see any errors?

[KI6UVE]

@sdetweil
Something must be wrong with my api key. I did not see the instructions for opening a developers window. Could you send again?

@sdetweil

That brought up module weather.js, Uncaught SyntaxError: unexpected token .
