[QUESTION] Weather widget has error

[vanillanesquik]

Hello,

I am having trouble with the weather widget, I was able to go through the configuration and setup all of my links and sections but I am trying to experiment with the widgets.

I was able to confirm that the basic widgets works (no API), for example the Crypto ones in the sample config.

I signed up for openweather.org and setup the widget in my config. I have tried several different city codes and switched to US just for troubleshooting.

I have tried with both the proxy (useProxy: true) and internal CORS (no proxy). I don't know how to access the logs to find out what the problem is. I only saw references to using the browser console which I do not have much experience with in troubleshooting.

Any idea where I may be able to find the logs?
I am running on Docker in Unraid. I have Pihole running on unraid and use PFsense on my router. Openweather.org and api.openweather.org are both pingable from inside the container.

• name: Today
  displayData:
  rows: 5
  sortBy: default
  cols: 5
  collapsed: false
  hideForGuests: false
  widgets:
  - type: weather
  useProxy: true
  options: null
  apiKey: efdbade728b37086877a5e83442004db
  city: US
  units: imperial
  hideDetails: false
  id: 0_513_weather

Just open the console / usually F12

Looking at your example, I think city: us is probably not a valid city name, it has to be something supported by OWM.

Also, not sure if it's just the formatting in how you've pasted your config (you can use ``` <code> ``` for code blocks), but the indentation of your config looks incorrect. Don't set options to null, instead, you need to nest apiKey, city, units under options.

I updated your example, and this now works:

- name: Today
  displayData:
    rows: 5
    sortBy: default
    cols: 5
    collapsed: false
    hideForGuests: false
  widgets:
  - type: weather
    options:
      apiKey: efdbade728b37086877a5e83442004db
      city: New York City, US
      units: imperial

You can always run yarn validate-config if you're unsure.

For this widget, you shouldn't need the useProxy option, but this might depend on your setup.

Hope that helps :)
