Update weather.com backend to reflect upstream changes

[terminalmage]

Weather.com embeds the weather data as a JSON in a <script> tag, so this just updates to reflect recent changes to how that information is embedded.

Does this work for international data? I'm in canada and this commit stops my weather from being loaded. I updated because the status was always "None", but now I don't get anything.

Actually, testing the old code results in no weather either.

How can I help with this? I've had no success with enabling debug in this module as described in the pid file.

@howlett I do this:

# Adjust this logfile path as needed
status = Status(logfile='/home/erik/var/i3pystatus.log')

status.register(
    'weather',
    hints={'markup': 'pango'},
    format='{condition} {current_temp}{temp_unit}[ {icon}][ Hi: {high_temp}][ Lo: {low_temp}][ {update_error}]',
    colorize=True,
    refresh_icon='<span color="' + COLOR_WORKING + '">⟳</span>',
    log_level=logging.DEBUG,
    backend=weathercom.Weathercom(
        units='imperial',
        location_code='whatever_you_use',
        log_level=logging.DEBUG,
    )
)

It also helps to run i3pystatus from a virtualenv, because it lets you install it using pip --editable /path/to/git/clone/of/i3pystatus to make it easier to run i3pystatus while you are developing.

Sorry for any inconvenience, and I hope you're able to find the issue. Let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

@howlett The None issue should be fixed in https://github.com/enkore/i3pystatus/pull/789. This also makes fixes to reflect yet another API change.

Thanks. I have tried to upgrad with "sudo pip3 install git+ https://github.com/enkore/i3pystatus.git --upgrade", but it seems I still get 3.35. Is this correct? I still get nothin but "() !" in the status bar after running the upgrade.

{~} $ python --version Python 2.7.18 {~} $ python3 --version Python 3.8.5 {~} $

3.35 is the last numbered release. Since then we just recommend installing from git (I'm going to be working on improving docs this week).

I personally don't use pip to install i3pystatus globally, I use a virtualenv.

virtualenv /path/to/my/virtualenvs/i3pystatus
pip install --editable /path/to/git/clone/of/i3pystatus

Then invoke your status script via the virtualenv's copy of the python binary, by setting the following in $HOME/.config/i3/config

status_command /path/to/my/virtualenvs/i3pystatus/bin/python /path/to/my/status_script.py

If you do this, updating is just as easy as pulling the git repo and then reloading i3.
