MMM-DarkSkyForecast - Yet ANOTHER weather module

Arjan

first of all, great that you made a new weather module like MMM-WunderGround. I really liked that one.

I have a problem with hourlyForecastInterval. If I don’t put it in de config and leave it to the default and put maxHourliesToShow : “6”, in the config, than I receive 6 forecasts with 3 hours apart.
When I put hourlyForecastInterval to 1 or 2 I only get 2 forecasts that are 10 hours apart.
Is this a problem or am I doing something wrong?

@arjan let me look into this. Doesn’t sound right…

Please help.Not sure what I’m doing wrong here but cant seem to have the module show up on the screen.

@kwabenalexx Your exact config works for me as-is. But I noticed it looks like you also have another weather module running. I wonder if something is clashing… can you try to disable the other one and try DarkSky again?

Also, did you run npm install in the MMM-DarkSkyForecast directory?

Thanks for the help. I deleted the other weather module and it worked. Now i see my units are in Km/h instead of miles/hr and the temperature readings are different from my local weather alerts my area

@kwabenalexx Add:

units: 'us'

to the DarkSkyForecast config to switch to imperial units. It’s the default for darksky, but not the default for this module.

@michael5r i added that to the config file and i get ‘‘Please create a config File’’ page

kwabenalexx

it’s fixed. thanks for all your help. i had to add a comma (,)

Yeah I did that intentionally because I’m Canadian and Imperial units make no sense to me ;)

Hi folks

Just wanted to let you know that with the latest update of this module, I’ve modified it to use the Nunjucks HTML templating system. This means as of version 1.6 of MMM-DarkSkyForecast, you’ll need to run it on MagicMirror 2.2.0 or later. It won’t run at all on older versions.

If you’re running an older version of MagicMirror and you still want to use my module, then please download the source for version 1.5 from here:

https://github.com/jclarke0000/MMM-DarkSkyForecast/releases/tag/v1.5

Note that I will not update v1.5 with any new features or bug fixes. All future development work will be done against v1.6 and above. If you want the latest and greatest, then you’ll need to update MagicMirror.
