Weatherunderground - currently - hourly - daily - configurable

RedNax

@jagerpower Doing a vanilla install… but it’s slow. BEfore you edited your post it showed IUTRECHT148 as your chosen pws… Is that correct? THe wu api returns an error on it.

jagerpower

@RedNax yes that is correct

@jagerpower Could you omit the loctype ie: IUTRECHT148 without the :loctype:1

jagerpower

@RedNax it’s still stuck on loading

RedNax

@jagerpower try setting pws to ‘pws:IUTRECHT148’ in your config:

pws: 'pws:IUTRECHT148',

@RedNax alt text

is there a way to remove the time? and get more days (like weather forecast from sunday to saterday?)

Thanks for all the help, its working now with the correct directory and icons in the directory and icon settings in the config.js file.

I didn’t realize that the bit temp was also part of this module so I don’t need to call the original weather module for that ether.

Great work!!!

Love this. Thanks. There are a couple of issues I’m working through, trying to help fix. The first is that beaufort icon isn’t showing because this isn’t defined in the CSS files. I would expect it to be in weather-icons-wind.css but its not.

Adding the definitions -

.wi-wind-beaufort-0:before {
  content: "\f0b7";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-1:before {
  content: "\f0b8";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-2:before {
  content: "\f0b9";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-3:before {
  content: "\f0ba";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-4:before {
  content: "\f0bb";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-5:before {
  content: "\f0bc";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-6:before {
  content: "\f0bd";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-7:before {
  content: "\f0be";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-8:before {
  content: "\f0bf";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-9:before {
  content: "\f0c0";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-10:before {
  content: "\f0c1";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-11:before {
  content: "\f0c2";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-12:before {
  content: "\f0c3";
}

to MMM-WunderGround.css fixes this.

CommanderB

The next issue is that the config variable hourlyInterval gets ignored. This can be fixed by changing line 238 to

var forecast = this.hourlyforecast[f * this.config.hourlyinterval];

@CommanderB Thanks for cleaning up my messes! :)

The icons you seek are in the included weather-icons.css. I do agree you’d expect them in weather-icons-wind.css
However it’s entirely possible that MM uses the one weather-icons included in the vendor dir first. They’re not in that one.

.wi-wind-beaufort-0:before {
  content: "\f0b7";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-1:before {
  content: "\f0b8";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-2:before {
  content: "\f0b9";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-3:before {
  content: "\f0ba";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-4:before {
  content: "\f0bb";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-5:before {
  content: "\f0bc";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-6:before {
  content: "\f0bd";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-7:before {
  content: "\f0be";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-8:before {
  content: "\f0bf";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-9:before {
  content: "\f0c0";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-10:before {
  content: "\f0c1";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-11:before {
  content: "\f0c2";
}
.wi-wind-beaufort-12:before {
  content: "\f0c3";

if you put a copy of weather-icons-wind.css into the vendor/weather-icons folder that should fix it.

RedNax

@jagerpower You can set hourly to 0 in the config. This will remove the hourly forecasts… You can also adjust fcdaycount to the number of days you want to be shown.

jagerpower

@RedNax is it possible to remove the English translation in the alert?

RedNax

Could be done by manipulating the string, however this might break things when other languages are selected. Could even be dependent on your pws… I’ll have a go at making it configurable…

RedNax

It’s a bit of a hack, but after getting the new version from github you can define

alerttruncatestring: "english:"

in your config. The alerttext will hen be truncated at the defined word/string

@pugsly you should not let users add stuff to the vendor folder! Plugin should be self containing :)

So I came home today and noticed that the weather had not refreshed in two days. When I did a pm2 mm restart it did refresh but now im wondering maybe its not refreshing on its own? is there a config setting for how often it does a refresh?
