MMM-DarkSkyForecast - Yet ANOTHER weather module
-
@Cr4z33 I have not seen this behaviour… the module does not do anything to hide any modules including itself… you can examine the code for yourself to see. My guess is there is some unintended consequence of my module interacting with one of the other ones your are also using… Can you try disabling the other modules one at a time to see if the behaviour goes away? If it does, whichever was the last one to be disabled is likely the other party. We can start investigating what’s going on after that.

@Cr4z33 said in MMM-DarkSkyForecast - Yet ANOTHER weather module:
Modules won’t appear again until I restart MM.
that usually means MM has crashed… many times this is memory related… we know that the default updater module also causes a similar behavior
-
@j-e-f-f OK, I’ve started disabling all other 3rd-party modules and enabling them one by one.
Apart from that what shall I look to then once there’s an issue between your module and the one of someone else? :)
@sdetweil so what do you suggest me to do? :thinking_face:
At first I thought that using MMM-WatchDog could sort the problem, but I feel like I misunderstood? :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat: -
@Cr4z33 watchdog will just allow you to restart when it crashes… not capture why…
I still don’t have a good method for capturing these kinds of failures…
-
@sdetweil oh I see, but then even if my MM doesn’t look like it restarted.
By now I am trying to see the overall behaviour with the Update module being disabled to see if the issue is still happening.
-
@Cr4z33 yeh. i don’t know how watchdog works… at some level if the MM process hangs, watchdog can’t work either… (my opinion without looking at the code)
-
@sdetweil alright.
In the meantime disabling the Update module sorted out the issue… weird…
Oh well that means I will run the updater manually from time to time. :D

Noob need some advice: Wunderground was running properly untill my API key expired. Now I try to install DarkSKy. I have updated MM to 2.6.0 and installed MMM-DarkSkyForecast and got a newe folder home/pi/MagicMirror/MMM-DarkSkyForecast.
How can I implement the module that its’s running? What do I have to change:
config.js:
{
module: “MMM-DarkSkyForecast”,
header: “Weather”,
position: “top_right”,
classes: “default everyone”,
disabled: false,
config: {
apikey: “xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx”,
latitude: “51.4185682”,
longitude: “6.8845226”,
iconset: “4c”,
concise: false,
forecastLayout: “table”
}
}, -
So, I have added the nice module. I have to adjust the size - who can give some tips/ advice to bring the module in shape?
I would like to have it in this shape:
