Hello all, I have recently installed conky-vision and am enjoying having weather information on my desktop. It has however sent me down a rabbit-hole as I have subscribed to get the API from openweathermap as the conky-vision suggested. I was wanting different information (more detail and also ideally moonphase etc.) and came across met.no, whose API does no require a subscription, and gives a lot more detail. I have got an example of the .XML file that it generates (openweathermap gives .json) and I have spent a little time looking at prettily coloured code in mousepad, and scratching my head. Not being a programmer since BBCB days it all looks a tad baffling and like I could lose many hours fiddling around. Is there a simple way to parse the information from this .xml file into the conky setup...? I also have the weather applet (which is where I learnt of met.no), which is basically what I would like displayed (though more nicerer!) on my desktop. Any help or suggestions of easy to understand instructions would be great! Thanks Anthony |
