[request] Weather Desklet

Looking for the REAL weather widget:

weather.jpg

which collapses into this:

weird_weather.png

and can even be collapsed smaller like this:

35899-shot.jpg

anyone?

P.S. no need to merge this topic as it differs from the others.

Also, I am not asking anyone to steal the Knofab images. There are alot of other weather images out there.

My request is that it has the same format and general look/feel of the Konfab widget, not the exact imagery.

That said, It should have a alpha background and the icon placement should remain exactly the same as it is in the pics I provided.

The text should also remain the same.

thanks

Why do you create separate threads for all your requests? >.

#194153

@Pe8er: It would get kind of confusing keeping up with 23 different requests in one thread. Don't ya think :6 :rolleyes:

#194155

The last one is a whole new Konfabulator widget called mini weather. The original ones (the first 2 pics) are part of the original weather widget included with Konfabulator :). So the big one doesn't collaps into that mini one.

I knew that, but why not improve on the original?

;)

It's more confusing for me to see 2 threads about weather desklets (second one is here). And there would be only 2 requests in one thread. That's not confusing.

Duckie, I removed your posts. Please use edit button, don't triplepost.

#194188

Pe8er and I have closed all redundant Weather desklets requests and made this the only one for such point.

Lets try to keep it that way, shall we?

wtf?

what do you mean triple post?

#194197

Triplepost = three posts in a row from the same member ;)

#194198

has anyone started this one yet?

#195716

would like to add my humble vote for the original konfabulator widget as well...that collapses. that would be amazing. :)

judge...you are god. in case you didn't know that ;)

#195758

Err.. I made the miniWeather desklet for Avedesk...

Only mini... none of that expanding stuff.. :lol:

If anyone wants it just PM me..

Or should I just make a release thread? :unsure:

Looks like this BTW,

Can someone send me the image files for the first two weather widgets? (not the weather states, I have those, just the background images!) I *might* be able to set this up working from Hydrals miniweather... I think I know the right XML. Maybe. :)

All it does is weather, doesnt collapse or expand.

Need permissions...

Anyone know code for weather per day over the next 4 days?

#196851

DZ: not sure if this will help at all, but herds in this post (click me) might give you a head-start somewhere. seems like you might be able to grab some of that information from an xml file if you change the attributes for the xml link? (eg: the next 4 days instead of 2)...not sure if that will work but its worth a look?

For instance, the link: http://xoap.weather.com/weather/local/UKXX...*&unit=e&dayf=5 if you click it seems to give the forcast for the next 4 days. maybe you could use something like that, and just get information from that link. perhaps reading from a specific line number...

hope that helps :)

Here's what I've come up with so far, still haven't figured out how to get the night image though.

Selector "//sunr" gives my sunrise info, "//low" gives me the low for day="0" and "//temp" gives me the current temp, but I can't figure out how to pull information from farther down the code, such as any info from 

<dayf>

.

Any ideas?

Try this in the selector, provided you used a URL similar to this:

http://xoap.weather.com/weather/local/LOC_ID?dayf=5&unit=s

Forecast High: //day[@d=n]//hi

Forecast Low: //day[@d=n]//low

Forecast Icon: //day[@d=n]//icon

Forecast Day: //day[@d=n]/@t

Forecast Date: //day[@d=n]/@dt

Forecast Condition: //day[@d=n]//t

Where n represents the day number you want (Today, n=0)
