ioBroker.weatherunderground
This adapter uses Sentry libraries to automatically report exceptions and code errors to the developers. For more details and for information how to disable the error reporting see Sentry-Plugin Documentation! Sentry reporting is used starting with js-controller 3.0.
ioBroker Adapter to load 24h weather forecast for your location from Weather Underground.
The adapter loads all 15min (default) daily and hourly forecast data.
Notes
You can use this adapter with providing an official "PWS owner" API-key or leave API key empty to use keys extracted out of the WU webpage.
Icon Sets
There are some different Icon Sets available when using "Legacy API", see below. For the usabe with the new API the image names have changed (see https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dNCf6nF6cjm4oOxQxjtqNuAvG_iEe5f9MQH1xlCeV4s/edit) and are now number based ... they can be downloaded from e.g. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B6fWQWXuE09OOWtBOXJNX190TDQ and could be used as custom set (see below).
In Adapter settings change "Custom Icon-Base-URL" to one of the available Icon Set on Weatherunderground:
(source: https://www.wunderground.com/weather/api/d/docs?d=resources/icon-sets )
Or you can aso use your own "custom" icons, for this purpose the following gif-files must be provided within an Base-URL directory :
