    • RE: MMM-aviationwx (Aviation weather)

      0_1511029517325_example from MMM-aviationwx.png

      So, I tried to make a “tech spec” for a new module. It’s very briefly and dirty, but we can start with that.

      displaying of the METAR:

      1. Symbol for the “Flight-Rules”: VFR/IFR/etc. You can take samples from MMM-aviationwx.css file of the MMM-aviationwx module.
      2. IATA/ICAO Airport code. IATA - three symbols “Station”, ICAO - four. Best way to make that configurable (to show IATA/ICAO/Both). I think that the best way to put this conversion table inside new module.
      3. Time of METAR observation. Be carefull, “Time” field is in Zulu time (GMT+0). Need to be cofigurable: to keep initial (Zulu time) or convert that to the local time based on timezone.

      For the datafields below I propose to make a possibility to see a “brief format” or “full data” . It must be done via config.

      For a brief format:
      4.1) “Wind-Direction”,“Wind-Gust”,“Wind-Speed”,“Wind-Variable-Dir”: Best way to show that like “Wind-Direction”/“Wind-Speed"G"Wind-Gust” “Wind-Variable-Dir"V"Wind-Variable-Dir”…
      Display of “Units”/“Wind-Speed” in current case is mandatory due to different units in different countries.
      4.2) “Visibility” (with “Units”/“Visibility”)
      4.3) “Cloud-List”: display all (or just first? make configurable?) layer of clouds. You can keep that “as is”, for example BKN030 means BroKeN clouds at 3000 ft.
      4.4) “Temperature”/“Dewpoint” (with “Units”/“Temperature”)
      4.5) “Altimeter” (with “Units”/“Altimeter”). Make that field configurable (show/do not show).
      4.6) “Remarks”. Make that field configurable (show/do not show).

      For a full data format - it must be done using “Raw-Report” fiels. In that case you just need to clean up ICAO 4 letter code and Time from “Raw-Report” and display the rest part of this field.

      displaying of the TAF:

      1. Showing of TAF must be configurable (show/do not show).
      2. I propose to display TAF one line below METAR, without repeating of “Flight-Rules” and “Station”.

      And here we can make a “brief format” or “full data” like it was above.

      For a brief format:
      3.1) Each time group of “Forecast” array must be displayed in the new string (tbd).
      3.2) “Start-Time”/“End-Time”, “Type” (in case of BECMG or TEMPO);
      3.3) “Wind-Direction”, “Wind-Gust”, “Wind-Shear”,“Wind-Speed”, so like it was above for METAR.
      3.4) “Visibility” the same
      3.5) “Cloud-List” the same
      3.6) “Icing-List”,“Turb-List”, “Other-List”;
      3.7) “Probability”

      For a full data format - it must be done using “Raw-Report” field same as above.

    • RE: Show iCloud Reminders

      Hi all.

      Just want to recall that old topic, which still actual for some of us :)
      So, I made iCloud sync with calendar and birthdays (the second point was a little bit tricky, but it works now).
      But, the last stone still without any movement - iCloud reminders:

      • tried to do that with vdirsyncer: as result, I got an empty file without any reminder (tried many different setup)
      • tried to search for any other suitable ways: different scripts, etc. Nope.

      Maybe Is there any options to do it now?

      Thanks in advance.
