MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast 3.0 API calls and freeze issue

@jfields that one is quite old
I’d try this one, as the author is active

@sdetweil Thanks. 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.

@jfields good debug on the multiple problem
lets try this temp fix
in the MM/js folder do
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror/fixloading/js/app.js >app.jsstop and restart MM
this adds a hash to check for loading or already loading the node_helper for this module
-
Sorry to hijack this post. 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.

@Socrates
yes openweather changed their api
module needs update -
@sdetweil Hello, been away for a bit. 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.
-
@jfields logs are captured by pm2
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

@Socrates
yes openweather changed their api
module needs updateGreetings 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.

@Rags open the developers window, curl-shift-I, select the console tab, and put wea in the filter field to see messages just from the weather module
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 -
@sdetweil
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.?
