I’ve released the module for everyone. To get the latest code, you’ll need to navigate to your installed MMM-OpenWeatherForecast directory and execute:

git pull

followed by

npm install
(depencies have changed, so this step is important!)

Optionally you can run npm prune to remove old dependencies that are no longer used, but not necessary,

Restart MM and you should be good to go.

@swvalenti said in MMM-DarkSkyForecast - Yet ANOTHER weather module:

Can the throughout the week line up better with the hourly above like the icons and other data sets?

You can do this, but you’ll need to do it in your custom CSS. Here’s why:

The old module used a single table for both weekly and hourly forecast. But with the additions I have made in this module, you can have different columns for your hourly forecast versus what you have for weekly, and therefore they are two separate tables, meaning they might self-adjust to the content in the columns differently, even if you have the same columns in both.

I can’t enforce a uniform column width because a) I don’t know how many columns you’ll be using and b) I don’t know the width of the master region in Magic Mirror that you are using.

So long winded way of saying that once you have configured your tables just the way you like, if you want them to be uniform, you need to take a the extra step to set explicit pixel widths for your columns in your custom CSS file. Here’s an example of what that could look like:

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .wrapper.table .forecast-container .forecast-item .time,
.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .wrapper.table .forecast-container .forecast-item .day-name {
  width: 105px;
}

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .wrapper.table .forecast-container .header-row .weather-icon-header,
.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .wrapper.table .forecast-container .forecast-item .forecast-icon-container {
  width: 80px;
}

.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .wrapper.table .forecast-container .header-row .temperature-header,
.MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .wrapper.table .forecast-container .forecast-item .temperature-container {
  width: 100px;
  white-space: nowrap;
}

Prefixing your CSS with .MMM-OpenWeatherForecast .wrapper.table limits your rules to just the MMM-OpenWeatherForecast module and specifically .wrapper.table will limit your rules to the table layout version. This way if you change your mind and switch to the tiled layout, it won’t be affected by the rules you set for the table layout.

If you take a look at mmm-openweather-forecast.njk you can figure out what the class names are for each specific column, so you can target specific columns. I’ve given pretty much everything a unique class so you should be able to style everything exactly as you need. Make sure you style every column in your tables. If even one column is left unstyled you might get the same problem with them not lining up.

I hope this helps!

Thanks!

(suggestions/questions deleted as I’m an idiot that don’t know how to read config instructions completely!)

“apikey needs to be secified as a String, while latitude and longitude can be specified as either a String or a Number. Both work fine.” Minor typo. :)

Trying it out myself.

I’m noticing that many of you are experiencing failures of this module. It’s very likely that Apple is systematically shutting down the API access for some, but not everyone. In that light, I’ve made a replacement for it that uses the OpenWeather API instead.

I’m not ready to release it to the masses just yet, but if you’d like to try it out, link is here:
https://github.com/jclarke0000/MMM-OpenWeatherForecast

It works and looks the same, but has a few added features – be sure to read the README to see how to configure it.

Let me know if you run into any issues. I’m currently running it on three separate systems – my laptop for debugging and two raspberry pis, and it’s looking pretty good.

@swvalenti u getting invalid files? me too

@sdetweil Yes sir invalid files

Thank you very much

I was gonna post a 26k png file showing the Darksky api still working but the forum refused.

You’re never wrong, Sam. You’re just not always right. :-)

id say the api has finally been turned off as they said would happen

Hmm, I don’t know about that, Sammo. My BMW-DS weather is still working using an old Darksky api key. I’ve been waiting for it to fail, knowing the end is near.

Do you know if something has happened?

Many Thanks!
