Version 2.30.0 weather module, stuck loading, worked fine before upgrade
-
@Richard238 two instances, type: as appropriate. NO endpoint setting. The v3 openweather api only supports /onecall (already set as default)

The config.js.sample shows two instances -

ionToHeader: false
default config sample works, but that’s using openmeteo, not openweathermap, is that correct?
{ module: "weather", position: "top_right", config: { weatherProvider: "openmeteo", type: "current", lat: 40.776676, lon: -73.971321 } }, { module: "weather", position: "top_right", header: "Weather Forecast", config: { weatherProvider: "openmeteo", type: "forecast", lat: 40.776676, lon: -73.971321 } }, {openweathermap.js I have as
apiVersion: "3.0", apiBase: "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/", // weatherEndpoint is "/onecall" since API 3.0 // "/onecall", "/forecast" or "/weather" only for pro customers weatherEndpoint: "/onecall", -
@Richard238 leave off those parms. Defaults to 3.0 etc
Just put in your 3.0 apikey and lat/lon
And of course set the provider -

Which ones, sorry?
-
@Richard238 all the openweather ones you showed
-
This gives the ‘undefined, invalid date’ error on the MM
{ module: 'weather', header: 'Current xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx weather: ', position: 'top_right', config: { weatherProvider: "openweathermap", lat: 11111111, lon: 2222222, apiKey: "33333333333" } }, -
@Richard238 and you used real lat/lon
-
Yes, real Lat:Lon used
-
Do the L:L and API key live in the openweathermap.js file, or the config.js file? Or both?
-
@Richard238 all config goes in config.js
Never need to edit any other file -
openweathermap.js is unchanged
WeatherProvider.register("openweathermap", { providerName: "OpenWeatherMap", // Set the default config properties that is specific to this provider defaults: { apiVersion: "3.0", apiBase: "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/", // weatherEndpoint is "/onecall" since API 3.0 // "/onecall", "/forecast" or "/weather" only for pro customers weatherEndpoint: "/onecall", locationID: false, location: false, // the /onecall endpoint needs lat / lon values, it doesn't support the locationId lat: 0, lon: 0, apiKey: "" }, config.js shows{ module: 'weather', header: 'Current zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz weather: ', position: 'top_right', config: { //weatherProvider: "openweathermap", providerName: "OpenWeatherMap", type: "current", lat: nnnnnnnnnnn, lon: -nnnnnnnnnnnnn, apiKey: "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" //type: 'current', //location: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxx', //locationID: 'zzzzzzzz', //ID from https://www.openweathermap.org //apiKey: 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa' } }, -
providerName: “OpenWeatherMap”
That is not the correct property name

@Richard238 again show the whole config, xxx out the api key
Start w
position
and config
provider
type ( default is current)
apikey
lat
lonthe 3.0 apikey requires a credit card backing, right?
-
{ module: 'weather', header: 'Current zzzzzzzzzzzzz weather: ', position: 'top_right', config: { weatherProvider: "openweathermap", lat: 111111111111111, lon: 1111111111111111111111, apiKey: "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa", type: 'current', units: 'config.units' //location: 'zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz', } },I must have had that API key for aeons, don’t ever remember it having a c/card behind it.
Maybe it’s out-of-date. -
@Richard238 yes they told us the old free api was being terminated. only the new api exists, so we changed the defaults
but other users have reported the 2.5 apikey still works

@sdetweil hi Sam,
I have added a credit card and added the extra codes from the article and it doesn’t load.

-
@Rberry91 if you have the 3.0 apikey you dont add any extra parms
just type, apikey, lat and lon
