Hi @cweitkamp , thanx for the OWM binding !

I just installed and I will be playing with it the next period :slight_smile:

I have some remarks wrt docs. should I post them here or open an issue on ESH?

Also: If I add the altitude in the location of the Thing, I get the classic ManagedThingProvider WARN. I believe this is because PaperUI “trims” the altitude from the Thing conf page and tries then to update the Thing with only lat/long but it can’t because the Thing is not Managed (see here also: Finally, I got rid of this AbstractManagedProvider warning)

I have the same issue with PaperUI also for the Astro binding (trimming of alt). I think that I should open up an issue for PaperUI…

Results in Warn:

Bridge	openweathermap:weather-api:api	"OpenWeatherMap Account" @ "Weather" [ apikey="abc123", refreshInterval=30, language="en" ]
{
	Thing weather-and-forecast local "HomeR Weather & Forecast" @ "Weather" [ location="xx.xxx,yy.yyy,0", forecastHours=120, forecastDays=7 ]
}

Works ok (without alt):

Bridge	openweathermap:weather-api:api	"OpenWeatherMap Account" @ "Weather" [ apikey="abc123", refreshInterval=30, language="en" ]
{
	Thing weather-and-forecast local "HomeR Weather & Forecast" @ "Weather" [ location="xx.xxx,yy.yyy", forecastHours=120, forecastDays=7 ]
}
