@sdetweil – Thanks, Sam.
If I want to try this, can I just do it in the module folder now, or do I go back in there first and undo the edits I performed manually? I’m not clear on whether it does or doesn’t make a difference.

@wishmaster270 --Thanks! I appreciate the effort, but it didn’t work for me. I will wait for your PR to go thru…

RE: MMM-DynamicWeather Failed getting api: 401
@wishmaster270 – Thanks for the quick reply. I do already have the ver 3.0 API key, so I guess we will see if the module gets updated.
Meanwhile, would you happen to already know where the 2.5 call is hard-coded? I’d be willing to tinker and see if I can get it to work while waiting for an/the update to accommodate ver 3.0 APIs.

MMM-DynamicWeather Failed getting api: 401
Each time this module tries to check the weather, I see the following using pm2 logs:

RE: MMM-WeatherAlerts
@Gjones93 + @sdetweil – Is there any reason why openweathermap.org would not be returning alerts with the rest of the weather data? I have seen this behavior for some weeks/months now, and wonder whether it might be connected to the new API ver 3.0.
I currently am running both MMM-WeatherAlerts and MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast. Both used to deliver alerts and neither currently do. I am currently under a wind warning, but no warning displays on either module. I have also found a location in Utah that is currently under a winter storm warning [22 inches of snow falling!], and set the lon/lat there in one MM instance, still with no alert output.
I see no errors in pm2 logs, and do see various other modules showing successful fetching of weather and news - so it looks like this is not a lack of network connection.
Since multiple modules are failing to fetch alerts, it feels like the problem is at the source - openweathermap - or the operation of its API.
Config code for the dev instance follows. Any thoughts?
{module: "MMM-WeatherAlerts", disabled: false, position: "top_left", // top_right // header: "Weather Alerts", config: { appendLocationNameToHeader: false, calendarClass: "calendar", tableClass: "small", // small // lat: "36.131148", lon: "-115.241867", //Las Vegas = 36.131148 lat: "38.549194", lon: "-111.709464", // Fish Lk, Ut - For testing // lat: "42.295568", lon: "-83.782281",// Ann Arbor, Mi - for testing // lat: "35.152661", lon: "-114.456767", // Lake Mead Rec Area - For testing // lat: "36.753342", lon: "-98.355930", // Alfalfa County, Oklahoma - for testing // lat: "40.924102", lon: "-115.122002", // Northern Nevada - for testing weatherAlertProvider: "openweathermapalerts", weatherEndpoint: "/onecall", type: "alerts", updateInterval: 10800000, // Fetch content every 3 hours apiKey: "xxxx", // 19 Sep 2024 Ver 3 animationSpeed: 10000, // Default = 1000 (1 second) alertTimeFormat: "relative", // absolute alertDateFormat: "llll", alertDescriptionScrollDelay: 100, // Default = 85, Lower = faster alert description will move colored: false }, }, // true -
RE: MMM-Gas
@MarcLandis yes, that’s what I found too when I tried accessing the data directly. I was confused though that there is/was no error in the pm2 logs…

RE: MMM-OpenWeatherForecast
@Ray – Just for the sake of completeness for you or others I will mention here that the provider will count ALL calls, from ALL modules.
As an example I can have this module running for a comprehensive look at my local weather, plus an instance of the default weather module telling me what’s happening with a friend or relatives, plus I’m running MMM-DynamicWeather.
The API will count all the calls from all sources. It would be great if the MM system could pull the data and broadcast it to modules as needed, but that’s not how it works.

@sdetweil
@cowboysdude
So i reinstalled this module, and it still does not display on the Magic Mirror. [It now it does appear to load the module:

Could it has something to do with the dependency issues?

RE: MMM-Gas
@sdetweil – True. I’m not sure why that is. I will try reinstalling it.
-
RE: MMM-Gas
@sdetweil Sam - thanks for the confirmation. I posted the question before installing it, and went ahead and installed just to see how it might look.
It gave me some warnings on install regarding deprecated dependencies, then displayed… nothing. I tried to manually pull the gas price data using the url in code in the github repository but that just comes back as a 404, and the site map doesn’t give any hint that the site serves up this data.
The odd part is I don’t see any error specific to this module in the pm2 logs [see below]. At this point I have removed the module folder and config.js code and life goes on. If there happens to be a way to get it to work, great - but let’s not spend a lot of time on it.

RE: MMM-Gas
@cowboysdude - We have a car that only takes premium, and a car that only requires regular. Is it possible to show prices for multiple grades of fuel in a single instance of the module? {Obviously I could install one instance, rename a bunch of stuff and then install a 2nd instance, but I’m wondering whether it can do it natively? Thanks in advance.

RE: newsfeed
@sdetweil - Thanks for both the update on the pm2 restart and on the reminder that the OP’s system structure is different.
OK, back to newsfeed behavior…

RE: newsfeed
@foggy - @sdetweil may be onto something. I jsut added your url to my config.js file and I now get the BBC just fine.
I also wonder whether the "{ " and “}” brackets are required but missing in your feeds array? I have each feed url in its own brackets and it works for me. See my config below, modified to add your BBC url.
@sdetweil - related question: In the[recent] past my system has always restarted Magic Mirror when i commit a change to config.js using control-O, but lately it doesn’t and I have to manually restart MM. Is this expected behavior?
Here is the file MagicMirror/config/config.js now correctly displaying BBC news.
{module: "newsfeed", disabled: false, tableClass: "small", position: "bottom_center", // bottom_center bottom_bar config: { feeds: [ { title: "New York Times", url: "https://rss.nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/nyt/HomePage.xml" }, { title: "BBC", url: "https://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/world/rss.xml"}, { title: "Las Vegas Review Journal", url: "https://www.reviewjournal.com/feed/" }, { title: "Detroit Metro Times", url: "https://www.metrotimes.com/detroit/Rss.xml" }, ], reloadInterval: 600000, // Content fetch interval - 600000 = 10 minutes updateInterval: 15000, //Display new headline interval - default = 10000 milliseconds / 10 seconds showSourceTitle: true, showPublishDate: true, broadcastNewsFeeds: false, broadcastNewsUpdates: false } }, -

OK - thanks. Maybe I will give it a try… -
RE: [HOW_TO] MagicMirror as Desktop Wallpaper (all platform : updated)
@MMRIZE
Do you know whether the install script developed and maintained by @sdetweil would install on various specified versions of Windows [E.G. Win7, Win 8, Win 8.1, Win 10 or Win 11]? if that script will install on the various implementations of Windows, that would likely solve this question of how to do it. -
RE: The most popular 3rd party modules
Kristian - do the links to the modules listed as numbers 7-10 need some validation? :)

RE: one call api open weather
@sdetweil - Sam, I know you don’t have the answer either. I guess I was partly venting, and partly trying to be complete so that others who are having issues or questions can see that various of you and us have tried to work this through.

RE: one call api open weather
@sdetweil – Hi Sam. I guess maybe my central point got lost in transit - which is I just want[ed] to know from openweathermap.org whether they can tell me if the API key they issued last year (around the time it became apparent ver 2 would be deprecated) is a ver 3 or ver 2 key. FWIW, I did try one final time and explicitly asked only whether they can tell me the version of key I have. They did respond to the email, but did not address the question.
Yes, I’m sure you are correct and it probably is simple from their point of view. However, the issue is that they are [apparently] currently servicing both the old and the new APIs, so from the user’s side it is not possible to do what they and you are suggesting and just see if calling with the old key generates an error.
If I run my MagicMirror and the API that openweathermap.org issued me last year is the old API the module will still work, so there is no diagnostic value there. Yes, I do see that when the point in future time comes that they shut down responding to calls using the ver 2 API and only respond to ver 3 - then all our modules that are calling with ver 2 APis and modules using old endpoints will fail.
My goal was to get ahead of this and avoid having the modules fail, or in the alternative having to replace the API keys in every module in every MagicMIrror where it is used - just in case they issued me a ver 2 API key last year.
Thanks again to you and Krisjan for all the help and support!
