MMM-DarkSkyForecast - Yet ANOTHER weather module

@lavolp3
it worked,thankyou:)

@mrdenmark thinking about that again the better way would be to give the daily forecast part a border-top in your custom css. That way you would not have to struggle when you want to update the module.
Let me know if you need help with that.

I do. :)

@BD0G
The css way is not as easy as I would have assumed.

All the elements in the forecast belong have “.forecast-item .hourly” classes so are not distinguishable.
I currently don’t know of a pure css way to get in between them and give the first daily forecast a margin or a border.

It’s possible to add animated .mov format icons to this module? I have found some amazing icons, but just bevor I buy it i will be shure that it will be working… animated weather icons…
THX!

Hey guys,
I’m trying to use this model and this stucks in loading :

{
		  module: "MMM-DarkSkyForecast",
		  header: "Weather",
		  position: "top_right",
		  classes: "default everyone",
		  disabled: false,
		  config: {
		    		apikey: "xxxxx",
		    		latitude: "39,462900",
		    		longitude: "-8.473200",      
		    		iconset: "4c",
		    		concise: false,
		    		forecastLayout: "table"
	  	}
	},

What 's the problem here?

git clone https://github.com/jclarke0000/MMM-DarkSkyForecast.git.
2)Enter the new MMM-DarkSkyForecast directory and execute npm install.                                                       3) reboot

Did you follow these instructions?

@TyFusion I think you have to exchange the decimal point for a dot at latitude.
Try “latitude: “39.462900”,”

You might be right, I overlook that tonight.

Just wanted to let folks know that DarkSky is no longer accepting new users to the API now that they have been acquired by Apple.

Yeah… not sure what I’m going to do about this yet… Need to rewrite my weather module AGAIN due to API going belly-up. Any suggestions on a good, free API?

@j-e-f-f maybe try yr.no ? it’s free :)

@Hadr1en @numb3rs Thanks! Will look into both of these.

@j-e-f-f it is possible to use animated icons (4c) for the main icon?

@j-e-f-f Great module, definitely my favorite weather module so far!

2 things would make it perfect in my opinion: Feels like temperature and sunrise/sunset data.

Do you have any plans to add those in the future?

Thank You!

@j-e-f-f The best replacement for DarkSky that I’ve found is https://www.climacell.co/weather-api/ since its hyper-local. Free tier gets you 30,000 calls/month.

Maybe I shouldn’t say it, but… you can find many working DarkSky API codes around (that can be used simultaneously by more than one user).

Just do a proper search in Google Images and here you go. 😂

This one sounds really interesting! Thanks! Seems to have minutely data for Europe as well which is rare.

OpenWeatherMaps now introduced a new OneCall-API which is similar to the old DarkSky. There is even a table for migrating from DarkSky to OpenWeather. Maybe someone who has coding skills could see rebuild this lovely module? In the end Dark Sky API will be discontinued completely so everyone will need to look out for something else :)
