Due to recent changes in the yahoo weather API the forecast module no longer works: "As of Thursday, Jan. 3, 2019, the weather.yahooapis.com and query.yahooapis.com for Yahoo Weather API will be retired." It is uncertain when if ever we will get this module back to working. However I have been looking into possible alternatives to the Yahoo weather API. Even if a suitable API is found it is a time consuming task to modify the source code for this module to work with another API. Sorry for any inconvenience but for now the only alternative is not use the module
OK, it is nice but too far from perfection. Unfortunately I posted this solution in old forum so I have to make it again.
So, if you are OK with the terminal solution, just make a command shortcut and that's it.
In case you want something more, you have to configure the key shortcut to switch between main screen and hover screen. I have ALT G. The binding is possible in settings and command is called Show/Hide gadgets. For better understanding I will show some screenshots.
Then install my Stickynotes module called moksha-module-stickynotes. Load the module. Place the gadget on the hover desktop (not background) and setup the module according the command I posted. The mandatory condition is putting "T" char in command for no colors layout.
Thanks the_waiter for posting this alternative. I think it is a great option, and I look forward to trying to get it to work on my system today. I will post if I have issues. I love CLI tricks and tips used in inventive ways like this one.
There is also conky scripts and stuff but I am not going to look around and find one working for you or create one from scratch. But that is certainly doable.
I don't know of anything else that works but probably there are other options.
In all likelihood I will get the forecast module back to working just am overwhelmed at the moment at all the work on our themes I am doing. Sorry about not just jumping on fixing the forecast module but it currently has lower priority to stefan and I at the moment.
hey ylee i never got gnome weather to work completely ever. a few aspects would work and the other few were notta. nt arguing with you as i hope you know but been there and done that. if i need weather i use weather.com for what that is worth.
