      My config looks like this:

      {
			module: "weather",
			position: "top_right",
			config: {
				showHeader: true,
				weatherProvider: "yr",
				type: "current",
				lat: "52.5544",
				lon: "13.4635",
				roundTemp: true,
			}
		},

      But the mirror only says “loading…” all the time.

      Any ideas how to deal with that? I use MM v2.24.0

        @MajorC said in How to use Yr as a weather provider:

          		type: "current",
  		lat: "52.5544",
  		lon: "13.4635",

        numbers and true/false do not use quotes…

        open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i on the MM page,
        select the console tab and put,

        wea

        in the filter field to see only messages from the weather module

          @sdetweil you are absolute right. But still:

            @MajorC the api returned data the module did not expect and did not handle the error…

            the exact cause of the error is unknown as the code did not report it…

            i have seen quite a lot of sloppy api programming lately…

            the rules are pretty clear

            rc=200 means all good
            other errors 300/400/500 families provide specific info

            but a lot of apis return 200 even for error cases and THEN the code has to decode the TEXT of the ‘good’ data message…

            sloppy, lazy…

            because the error calls out an ‘unexpected non-whitepace’ (a colon maybe) , I suspect this api is one of these

              @sdetweil so I have to use an other weather provider? I really like Yr. They are very precise for Europe.

                @MajorC not what I said… its broken as you are using it, but I don’t know why. I am not the provider author… you can post an issue to the MM github page…
