OpenHAB 2.5.2
Dark Sky Binding 2.5.2
The data returned by this binding is wrong.
I have checked it with https://api.darksky.net/forecast/a8e...8b88758…1738…2377/xx,-yy and it looks correct to me.
Any ideas on why does it happen?
Have you set up your location in openHAB? Under Configuration -> System in the Paper UI.
Just did it and it helped. Thank you.
I am just curious, does this binding ignore Thing settings for location?
Yes, it does ignore geographical coordinates in weather-and-forecast local.
It works even with the following thing:
Thing weather-and-forecast local "Local Weather And Forecast" [location="blah,blah", forecastHours=24, forecastDays=3]
This is probably for the local only, didn’t test it for other locations.
I do not know if it was developer’s intention, but this doc doesn’t mention it.
@Bruce_Osborne, I am accepting your response as a solution.
UPDATE:
Just in case if someone needs a nice weather widget in their HABpanel:
https://weatherwidget.io/
(powered by Dark Sky)
/etc/openhab2/html/weather.html (or any file name)
Copy/Paste a widget code into the html file
