Conky Weather
« on: September 22, 2010, 10:45:20 pm »
[ Yet another post soon to be labeled 'SO Yugnip' ]

I am having difficulty getting weather in Conky. After following Pinguy's superb Conky tutorial on the Ubuntu forums to the letter, and checking and rechecking, I am unable to find where I've gone wrong. Not only does weather not appear, but Conky remains unchanged-- not even a spot for weather

my .conkyrc

Code: [Select]
# Use Xft?
use_xft yes
xftfont Droid Sans:size=8
xftalpha 0.8
text_buffer_size 2048

# Update interval in seconds
update_interval 1

# This is the number of times Conky will update before quitting.
# Set to zero to run forever.
total_run_times 0

# Create own window instead of using desktop (required in nautilus)
own_window yes
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_type override
#own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager

# Use double buffering (reduces flicker, may not work for everyone)
double_buffer yes

# Minimum size of text area
minimum_size 182 0
maximum_width 182

# Draw shades?
draw_shades no
default_color D6D6D6 #4D4D4D
# Draw outlines?

# Draw borders around text

# Stippled borders?

# border width
border_width 1

# Text alignment, other possible values are commented

and my .conkyForcast.config

Code: [Select]
# config settings for conkyForecast.py
CACHE_FOLDERPATH = /tmp/
CONNECTION_TIMEOUT = 5
EXPIRY_MINUTES = 5
TIME_FORMAT = %H:%M
DATE_FORMAT = %d-%m-%y
LOCALE = Richmond, VA
XOAP_PARTNER_ID =
XOAP_LICENCE_KEY = USVA0652
MAXIMUM_DAYS_FORECAST = 7
BASE_XOAP_URL = http://xml.weather.com/weather/local/<LOCATION>?cc=*&dayf=10&link=xoap&prod=xoap&par=<XOAP_PARTNER_ID>&key=<XOAP_LICENCE_KEY>&unit=m

I did not omit my Xoap license key-- I don't actually have one. It wasn't implied that I needed one from Pinguy's tutorial, although it was from others.

Can someone tell me where I've gone wrong?

lol, SO Yugnip. Thanks Pinguy, I should have figured that out. Of course now I get the weird characters like A  and metric rather than backwards ole USA system. I noticed 'imperial' is used in the code. Tried to change to fahrenheit, but terminal told me it wasn't an option?

Can you post a screenshot? I might be able to help you more if I know what it looks like.

To change to fahrenheit you will need to add --imperial} to the end. Like this:
Code: [Select]
Humidity: ${alignr}${execi 600 conkyForecast --location=USVA0652 --datatype=HM --imperial}
Give me a couple of minutes and I will do your .conkyrc for you. But I still need to see what it looks like. I'm not sure why you are getting weird characters like A

Wow, thanks for the help Pinguy! I had to omit a few things out to fit my resolution, 1440x900, so mine actually looks different than your config. Unfortunately I still get this weird A character. Saw something about it when doing some Conky research, so I'll have to return to that possibly to figure it out.

That's really odd with the A. If I can think why that's happened I will let you know. At the moment I am drawing a complete blank why you have that.

Also you could get rid of the home hard drive info, as you are not using a separate partition for your home.

I just found someone saying placing this:
Code: [Select]
override_utf8_locale yes in the conkyrc file should get rid of the A. Thread here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=760527&page=2  comment 19. Apparently I should have an option in my config file for override_utf8_locale with either a yes, or no, but I am unable to find that in my file.

Edit: ok I figured it out, and again thanks to you Pinguy. This line needed to be added to the .conkyrc:

Code: [Select]
# Force UTF8? note that UTF8 support required XFT
override_utf8_locale yes

Found it via a post by Pinguy (post 13003) here:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=281865&page=1301  For one reason or another this seems to have been omitted from the current PinguyOS conky. Adding it again fixed the weird character issue.
