<![CDATA[MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast 3.0 API calls and freeze issue]]>I have been using MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast for a few months without issue. I have showDailyForecast in one section with maxHourliesToShow set to 24. I also have 4 different daily update sections, including the same location as the showDailyForecast updates. So 5 calls/sections total. The daily updates pull every 12 hours and the hourly pulls every hour.
I upgraded my MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast configs to 3.0 onecall a couple weeks ago. I also recently updated that module, the magicmirror base, and the Raspberry Pi software around the same time. I’m having a hard time pinning down the root cause. I’ve since renamed my MagicMirror folder and redownloaded in case I made a mistake somewhere else.

I recently found that my hourly weather was not updating. Looking at it further, it appears to have gone stale around July 2nd, I found this on the 5th or 6th. When I logged into my Raspberry Pi 4, I took the regular OS updates that were waiting, rebooted, and restarted the Magic Mirror software and configured modules. I assumed something was hung and needed a reboot I then noticed an unusually high number of calls going to onecall_30. My normal amount is 60-70 calls per day but I was close to 1,000 by late afternoon.

A lot of troubleshooting later I’ve found that having the hourly and daily calls running at the same time causes the system to slowly freeze up. Having more than one call/section enabled causes an unusually high number of calls to go out. Having just the showDailyForecast section enabled runs fine and registers one call in the openweathermap usage logs per attempt. Having this hourly plus one of the daily calls running results in 8 calls per attempt. Having three sections enabled results in 27 calls, 4 sections enabled results in 64 calls, and having all five sections running results in 100-152 calls. These counts are recorded at startup; I don’t have the data on refresh rates.

When I have more than one instance of the weather call in my config, I get an unusual number of calls being recorded at https://home.openweathermap.org/statistics/onecall_30. If I have the hourly instance and any daily instance enabled at the same time, it seems like each new API call bogs the system down more. It’s evident in the clock. I start seeing time update every 2 seconds, then every 3-4, then more. Eventually my calendar wouldn’t display, flashing briefly for a moment before going away again - maybe it was trying to refresh and not getting through? Having more daily instances enabled along with the hourly causes it degrade faster. Eventually it just stops updating and appears frozen. When it gets to this point, the openweathermap statistics stops bumping like the calls are never going out.

lets try this temp fix

in the MM/js folder do

curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror/fixloading/js/app.js >app.js

stop and restart MM

this adds a hash to check for loading or already loading the node_helper for this module

You can limit your calls as well. For example, I have mine set to 2,000. I get the 1,000 for free, and allow for another 1,000. This happened once while I was troubleshooting my issue here. I got to just over 1,900 calls total and the charge was $1.35 USD. You can set the max call limit to whatever you want.

I’ll submit a pull request to fix the base

I turned two more MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast sections for a couple days and left it running. No issues that I could see. Your script seems to have fixed it. I’ll probably go back to 4 standard weather sections and one MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast. Thank you for your help though.
Here are the logs.

my erased comments were for the default weather module

yes, they give you 1000 api calls per day, no charge, but you must register a card

YIKES !
I had changed the helper module to
“var url = “https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall?” +” as suggested in an earlier post. I also changed the config.js with weatherEndpoint: “forecast/daily”. It still did not work.
So i am not comfortable to use a credit card for the website. So does it mean curtains for this module as far as “Free” is concerned.?

You should see some error, maybe 401
They have dropped support for the older 2.5 spikes, you need a 3.0 key which requires a credit card

@Socrates
yes openweather changed their api
module needs update

Greetings fellow MagicMirror fans, I also noticed that the weather is not updating since a few days. I ran a git pull to update the module , it says already updated, but the module is not displaying the weather. DId i miss doing something . I have a free account and an api key. Need help to resolve this, Thanks.

pm2 logs --lines=xxxx

xxxx is the number of lines to show

the curl loads a version of the MagicMirror file that now only loads the node helper once per module.

nothing else is changed

I ran the curl and added a couple of the OpenWeatherMapForecast calls back in. They’re showing nominally, time is updating regularly. No issues right now. I opened the browser developer window and it’s showing 3 errors and the count is not incrementing. Does this fixloading script stop errant calls? I’m not sure where to look for the logs. I’m using pm2 to start/stop/restart.

I can create a new one if needed. I’ve been using the “MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast” module for a while, but for the past few weeks, it hasn’t been showing up on my MM. I’ve rebooted MM several times and made sure the module is up to date, but no luck.

lets try this temp fix

in the MM/js folder do

curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror/fixloading/js/app.js >app.js

stop and restart MM

this adds a hash to check for loading or already loading the node_helper for this module

I haven’t tried that one. I honestly only thought there were two, one that was way old and the one I’m using (MarcLandis). The one I’m using did get a recent update so it is somewhat supported, although I cannot open an Issue on it.

From where I’m at now, I have a good working solution but using the MarcLandis version on one side and the built-in for everything else. If I do change, I will look at the Tom-Hirschberger version. It’s getting updates and has a tab to open Issues.

in the module folder do
git remote -v

The freezing is not from exceeding the 1,000 API calls. The system is bogging down. I can watch it get worse over time by watching how often the seconds update on the clock. Also, I have a credit card on file and allow up to 2,000 call. I haven’t exceeded that but I have gone up to 1,700.
I have reverted to using MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast for just one call and that is working fine. I’m using the standard weather module for the rest of the calls.

For the config.js, I copied the module section and pasted it above. Do you need more than that?

I wasn’t sure what to grab from the console tab, but I did see some errors and grabbed those.

Video of some error messages popping up. They were really flashing fast at first, hard to get a screen grab so I made a video. The longer it went, the more errors, and the longer you could see them. Something is compounding.

The longer it goes, the more errors I see.

limit of the free plan.

can we see your config.js?
xxx out any api key or url etc that is
private but don’t change anything else, use the code block wrapper

weather is done all in browser , so any messages are logged there

ctrl-shift-i to open the developers window and then select the console tab.
add weather to the files field to see messages just from the weather module

you can change filter to cal for Calendar
as well.
Calendar fetching is done server side, so the output of

 pm2 logs --lines=100

might be helpful
as well as the output of

pm2 status

without knowing if it is related to this we have another odd behaviour here which sounds similiar
