Especially npm install?
Hi. I recently made a PR for the MMM-WeatherBackground module. I made a contribution to modify MMM-WeatherBackground.js, in such a way that now there are predetermined a series of collections that reflect in addition to the weather conditions, the time of day (day or night) and the season of the year.
All those collections can be seen in:

It is a hard job to select photos and add them to the collections.
They are divided into all weather conditions, whether it is day or night and the season of the year. For example, fog day, rain day spring, snow night, etc.
For this reason I want to ask anyone who is interested in contributing photos to the collections, to use this post to do so.
As follows:
cloudy windy day autumn: https://unsplash.com/photos/VQqt3g0BixA
That way I will be adding the photos to the collections, so that by default they are visualized in the module when season, day or night and weather condition match.
The configuration of the module in config.js should now be as simple as:
{
module: "MMM-WeatherBackground",
config: {
targetDOM: ".MMM-Dummy",
//null or DomSelector for target.
// if null, currentweather will be targeted.
// examples: ".newsfeed", "#SOME_SPECIAL_DOM", ".top.left .module"
hemisphere: "n", // new config option "s" or "n". Another letter or number won't work.
source : "MMM-NOAA3", // `currentweather`, `MMM-NOAA3`, `MMM-DarkSkyForecast`
defaultCollection: "featured", // I think this is now deprecated
}
},
@teemuoksanen said in [MMM-Remote-Control] Cannot GET /api:
I have exactly the same problem - all API calls result in error “Cannot GET /api/whatevermoduleitrytocall”. However, remote.html loads just fine.
As I have.
Edited: It was a mistake, sorry. I have same problem.

Sorry for incomplete information on repository.
Don’t worry. It was just to contribute!

@lkthomas
You can use these as keywords.sunny, clouds, cloudy, windy, heavy rain, rain, thunderstorm, snow, fog, clear night, cloudy night, night rain, night thunderstorm, night snow, windy night
Hi Sean, your module is really very nice, thank You.
I was working with collections and I couldn’t make module loads my ones, despite your instructions in the 2 previous posts.
So, I took a look to console log and see that You url always appends in the url the weather conditions. When condititions carry on “-” between words, your url also carry on that sign.
I meant, when I wrote in config.js
collections: {
"clear-day": "4613658"
"sunny": "4613658",
"clouds": "4557538",
"cloudy": "4557538",
"cloudy night": "4613565",
"partly cloudy day": "4618566",
"partly cloudy night": "4618856",
"windy": "4613696",
"wind": "4613696",
"heavy rain": "4613730",
"rain": "4613732",
"night rain": "4613625",
"clear night": "4613623",
"fog": "4618886",
"thunderstorm": "4613853",
"tornado": "4619143",
/*"hail": "",
"i-rain": "",
"i-wind": "",
"sleet": "",
"snow": "",*/
featured photos was loaded anyway.
But when I did set collections in this way:
"clear-day": "4613658",
"sunny": "4613658",
"clouds": "4557538",
"cloudy": "4557538",
"cloudy-night": "4613565",
"partly-cloudy-day": "4618566",
"partly-cloudy-night": "4618856",
"windy": "4613696",
"wind": "4613696",
"heavy-rain": "4613730",
"rain": "4613732",
"night-rain": "4613625",
"clear-night": "4613623",
"fog": "4618886",
"thunderstorm": "4613853",
"tornado": "4619143",
/*"hail": "",
"i-rain": "",
"i-wind": "",
"sleet": "",
"snow": "",*/
photos I collected was loaded fine.
clear-day was worked but today was a partly-cloudy-day
Last commented conditions I don’t know what it means but snow, but in my place never goes snow.
Collections was “collected” from unsplash people following unsplash rules, so, I think any people can use it for MagicMirror. Feel free to use it for this wonderful module. Thank you.
Sometimes, unsplash could return mismatched images with keyword.
By using mentioned collections this won’t happen.
@Sean said in photo notification depending on weather:
@mohace
MMM-WeatherBackground would get weather info from some weather module, then would search e from unsplash.com, then put the image into any position.
I didn’t know that module when I asked in the other post. Thank you!!

@ines
Maybe https://github.com/eouia/MMM-WeatherBackground this could be what you seek.
Hi. I think he is asking same as me in https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/10167/true-challenge-weather-modules-developers
