Are local weather alerts in the DarkSky API natively supported and if so, how to I call the alerts within Xibo? There is a weather warning in effect right now in my area and would be awesome if I could incorporate the warning in my current weather layout.
HI
i dont know what do you exactly plan, but i programm a warning about the UV-index in Javascript.
You can use every Variable from the DarkSky API like Temperature, Windspeed, UVindex, Ozone and so on to use it on JS as a variable.
If you intressed about my little script about the UV-Index, let me know…
Greetings Torsten
Thanks for your reply Torsten.
Darksky can give severe weather alerts in the US, Canada, European Union member nations, and Israel. For example, if there is a a tornado warning in an area, Darksky can send out an alert with the local weather data.
The governing body sent out an orange weather warning for extreme heat and drought, and later extreme rainfall. Darksky gets this data from the governing body and puts it in their API so people can implement this.
If you take a look at the documentation for Darksky, it’s the fifth bullet. As far as I know, the Darksky API in Xibo only incorporates the current and daily weather and not weather alerts like extreme weather. It would be really useful to be able to communicate these warning natively so we can warn people about possible danger.
Hi,
OK, I understand.
If you want, open a Ticket in the Dev-Section of this forum to ask about a development or additional adjusments in the Weather widget.
