Did fresh OS install anyway, and then ran your MM install script. Pasted my updated config file that we worked over into the new install and weather is working great. Now back to MMM-Flights.

So, the final analysis for anyone reading this is to use the @sdetweil Magic Mirror install script, then edit the config.js

The only config options for openweathermap that I used were:

1. Location
2. LocationID
3. apiKey (used a free one from openweathermap.org)

I did not have to use lat/lon or any other config options for it to work.

@sdetweil

Thank you, I really appreciate all your help!!

@sdetweil

Never edited the weather.js file. Ran the git checkout line and it said Updated 0 paths from index. Version is 2.21.0

I’ll do a complete redo tomorrow with your GitHub scripts on a fresh RPi OS install. I’ll post the result here.

@sdetweil

Used in the install script npm install-mm from the website instructions. nodejs version is 16.18.1

@sdetweil

159

@sdetweil

That brought up module weather.js, Uncaught SyntaxError: unexpected token .

@sdetweil
Something must be wrong with my api key. I did not see the instructions for opening a developers window. Could you send again?

@sdetweil
No luck with that. Should the apiVersion be in ‘ ‘ or raw? Is there a different weather app api that is easier to configure?

@sdetweil
No luck. I noticed you used ‘ ‘ instead of “ “ for the ‘3.0’. I used “ “ for all my other variables, such as type: “forecast”. Is that correct?

The doc file doesn’t have any notation for how the lat/Lon is presented. Should that read…lat: ‘33.3025’ or nothing as it would imply in the doc file, I.e., lat: 33.3025

@sdetweil
I took out the endpoint line and that fixed the parsing error, but still no weather. I rechecked my api key and it is correct. Any other ideas? Thanks!!
