15 day weather forecast plugin with Infobar or SecondInfoBar weather widget.Welcome to my new plugin.
What started out as a bit of a quick conversation with Lululla and jenseneverest regarding no great and accurate weather plugins, especially for the UK market, I decided to write my own.
Thanks to lululla and jensen for the beta testing and feedback.
This is a new plugin and my own code and not based on the other infobarweather plugin by scriptmelvin.
Plugin incorporates the use of https://www.visualcrossing.com/ weather api. Visual crossings api is very good at finding your local location and uses multiple nearby weather stations for accuracy.
Free sign up required at https://www.visualcrossing.com/ to get your free API key. No credit card required.
Your personal API key can be entered via the plugin or manually pasting into /etc/enigma2/VisualWeather/apikey.txt

hello, I installed the plugin, it's very nice, but i set my second infobar with no expiration, why does it disappear after some time from the 2° infobar? thanks and sorry 4 my english :)
I tested the plugin on a dm920 within newnigma2 as image.
The plugin success it install. I can see 15 days forcast, but I d'ont have widget on infobar nor 2nd bar !
Any help ?
I am using nuke.evo skin !
I presume you have turned it on in the plugin settings.
you also need your own api key as mentioned on first post.
I set it to on, and of course I put the key.
I had already 15 days forecast for my town !
your skin might be clashing with it then.
Try the default skin and see if it works.
If it does then we will have to amend something to get it to work with nuke. evo skin
Here is my configuration:
As you see nothing on info bar
have you tried it with another skin.
looking at nuke.evo infobar code.
<screen name="InfoBar" title="InfoBar" flags="wfNoBorder" position="0,830" size="1920,230" backgroundColor="transparent">
basically the infobar screen is only small at the bottom of the screen. So the widget might actually be there but behind it.
most skins would have the infobar screen full screen height like this with just the elements placed at the bottom of the screen
<screen name="InfoBar" flags="wfNoBorder" position="0,0" size="1920,1080" title="InfoBar" backgroundColor="transparent">
Its not compatible with nuke.evo skin to show in the infobars. But you can have it in main menu to show the 15 day forecast.
Can you recommend a dreamOs skin to test with ?
Default skin give the same !
From where can I pick .deb file of this skin.
I found only .zip !
With zskin same result !
No thing displayed on infobar!CFC81F1A-3681-47C3-96FB-A41E9590B9D5.png
Sorry. maybe I translated wrong, I understood if it was possible to test with the plugin. I hadn't translated well and so now I believe instead that the test was to insert the widget in the infobar using the plugin.
Well I confirm that with zskin and gp4.1 and dream one, it is not visible. I just did a test, the tv is busy now.
I have one little problem Arabic language doesnt show up with other languages , in the folder of the plugin there is it files but in plugin setup no , also have small suggest , can you put 15day weather forecast on top and weather setup on down or if it can show the 15 day weather forecast directly when we go into the plugin then have a button for setup
The plugin language files are for the interface.
The settings language files are what it calls back from the api. If there is no arabic in visual crossing website, then you or someone else needs to add them.
See earlier posts on how to add data to their website.
As for amends on how the plugin works. The plugin was only a bit of a weekend project. It was a proof of concept. I am too busy with other stuff, to spend any time on this.
About the Infobar widget not showing in DreamOS.
The short answer is that will not work in any skin since it's not a skin problem but a code problem in DreamOS
It's just not compatible.
