      Due to Weather Underground closing its free API, and at the suggestion of @cowboysdude, I’ve rewritten MMM-BMW to work with the Darksky api, which still offers a free plan.

      Description:

      Bugger My Weather - Darksky

      • This was designed for use in the bottom_bar position of your MagicMirror

      • Can share bottom bar position with newsfeed module via Hello_Lucy

      • Minutely updates for current conditions

      • CSS provided for coloring and sizing. Make it your own.

      • 6 Built in font choices

        @cowboysdude was kind enough to show me one way of using different fonts in my module. My gratitude to him. Here’s a look. Simply click the image for an expanded, more pleasing view.

          I like this. It’s tight and conveys a lot of information in little real estate.

                    Here is my config.js entry, showing my lat and long

                    {
                    	disabled: false,
                    	module: "MMM-BMW-DS",
                    	position: "bottom_bar",      // bottom_bar is best
                    	config: {
                    		apiKey: "YOUR API KEY GOES HERE", // Free API key @ darksky.net
                    		tempUnits: "F",  // C of F
                                    lat: '40.123456', 
                                    lng: '-74.123456',  
                    	        useHeader: false,   // true if you want a header                 
                    		header: "Your header",
                    		maxWidth: "100%",
                    		}
                    	},

                        Thank you Mykle1, but I live in Germany. Koord: N48… and E008…

                        If I put in my Koordinates I get the message “Boring Weather”, but If I take the darksky.net I get the right values:

                        https://api.darksky.net/forecast/7146c1592f88d9179586e0fa404aad4b/49.0069,8.4034

                        any Idea?
                        thanks and best regards
