RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - bossanova808 - 2014-07-24 And my bit too - http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Add-on:Oz_Weather#Skin_Changes Thanks! RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - runey71 - 2014-07-31 Thank you for an excellent Australian weather app There are a few things I think I would like to tinker with if that is ok with you. Changes - Option to zoom in / out of the 128km, 256km, 512km, national radar images (So for my local radar IDR46 a 3 is appended for 128km (IDR463), 2 for 256km (IDR462), and 1 for 512k (IDR461) - View Options Location as a drop down box - Loading animation whilst waiting for data to load - Add mini weather to Weather tab (So when the Weather tab is highlighted but not entered into then todays weather is displayed) - Preload weather data for all suburbs in settings and buffer (to minimise waiting time for weather data to be loaded) I'm a total XBMC noob. Figured making a few tweaks to an existing addon will give me a good introduction before I start writing my own addons. Hope you don't mind RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - bossanova808 - 2014-07-31 It's fine with me, and I certainly don't have the time, so go for it. If you fork off: https://github.com/bossanova808/weather.ozweather ...just submit a pull request when you're done & tested and we'll get it happening. Make sure you support all features in Confluence at a minimum, though - other skins are nice but it has to work properly with the default for me/xbmc team to consider it for the master repo. RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - runey71 - 2014-08-01 Thanks boss I've roughly done the zooming of radars and mini weather on home screen. It's a shame that overwriting xml files in the skin is required. Trying to figure out if there is some way to do that as an override from within the addon. Lots of reading to be done to see what can and can't be done. RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - bossanova808 - 2014-08-01 It would be scriptable as part of the addon install I believe, but I think you will want to be very cautious with over-writing default skin files in Confluence! Another approach would be give to the addon a dependency on a version of Confluence with this integrated, but I very much doubt team xbmc would host that, so it would com eout of the master repo which is not going to happen...so I think, in all, that just getting people to install a few skin files is the way to go...but if you can come up with another method that they will go for that would of course be pretty great & make it easier for everyone. RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - runey71 - 2014-08-01 Agreed. A dependency is probably not the best way to go. The way you are already doing it seems good. The basic weather is usable without any modifications. The advanced features require some files to be replaced. If I can find a more automated way of achieving it then that's great if not then that's life. RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - ozviewer - 2014-08-13 Hi, I am having trouble on this Oz Weather app on android gotham. I get the message saying X Error Script failed Oz Weather I have also tried the alternative, Yahoo Weather, but this returns the same script error message. Is this a known bug, or is there a work around to enable it to work on the android? Here is a report I have tried to upload http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=267468 I only have my "L" plates on, so please allow for that in any response. Thank you RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - bossanova808 - 2014-08-13 Yep just as I expected - the Python Image Library (PIL) is missing Code: 14:34:25 T:1860648792 DEBUG: ### Oz Weather-0.7.2 ### Importing PIL as extra features are activated. I believe that this is a known thing but I am nt sure of current status - you might want to ask here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=188661&pid=1653538 Note if you turn off the extended features, you should at least get a basic forecast without errors (and based on BOM data) - you just won't have access to radars etc (but I doubt you've installed the skin files for those anyway). RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - ozviewer - 2014-08-13 Thanks bossanova808...I'll move along to there... RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - Martijn - 2014-08-13 @bossanova808 if PR5201 goes in you need to make sure you add PIL to the dependencies list. (which you actually should already have done). RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - bossanova808 - 2014-08-13 @Martijn - must have missed that memo so script.module.pil? version 1.1.7 I take it? RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - Martijn - 2014-08-13 (2014-08-13, 09:03)bossanova808 Wrote: @Martijn - must have missed that memo correct well you don't need it for the normal function but do for the advanced, so you should rely on it. It will prevent people from installing it if they don't have PIL. At least they won't get the error then Normally it "should" already be installed by default so not relying on it wouldn't be an issue. Hopefully it gets fixed soon RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - bossanova808 - 2014-08-13 Ok, no probs, will update and send pull request thingy RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - namsdrawkcab - 2014-09-02 Was wondering if there is a problem with this addon at the moment due to the fact that I had it all set up and working for the last few days and then today I am getting the following: Error w. current data I checked out the Weatherzone website and the first page I came to mentioned the following via Twitter: Last night we gave Weatherzone a new look n feel and a new homepage with an interactive map. We hope you like it. Could this have anything to do with my problem - I'm confused as to why this has stopped working all of a sudden when I have not changed any settings. Please assist - cheers RE: [RELEASE] OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - bossanova808 - 2014-09-02 Bugger - yep, that will be it - it has broken the scraping I will have to look re-write the scraper bit I guess. Their source code looks much cleaner so it won't be hard but it is always time consuming, so it might take me a few nights to get there unfortunately. |
