v3.2.7 / Openweather map produces 401

Hi.

After upgrading HB weather, I get the following error message.

My API key is active.

[28/12/2022, 13:14:13] [WeatherPlus] Error retrieving weather report [28/12/2022, 13:14:13] [WeatherPlus] undefined [28/12/2022, 13:14:13] [WeatherPlus] { cod: 401, message: 'Please note that using One Call 3.0 requires a separate subscription to the One Call by Call plan.

Same error since updating the plugin. Is the error related to the plugin update or because OpenWeather updated their products price plan?

I switched to the new OpenWeatherMap API 3.0, I'm working on a fix to support the old and new version.

Can you confirm:

• the "new" version is now a paid one?
• the "old" version will continue to co-exist free of charge?

Thank you

Thank you

In the API 3.0 „One Call“ Plan the there are still 1000 calls/month free. You have to add pay information, but can limit the use to 1000 calls.

Thanks. Prefer to avoid having to give pay information if not willing to pay for. I also don't think it's GDPR compliant. So thanks to @naofireblade in advance to implement the old API back :)

[naofireblade]

I looked into this. OpenWeather restricted the old free API in some points (no uv-index, no dew-point, no sunrise-time, no sunset-time). Most notably the daily forecast is not available any longer, only a 3hr forecast over the next 5 days. I will try to make some calculations to get useful daily forecasts.

[naofireblade]

Done, v3.2.8 with automatic support for legacy api is released.

[matbe81]

Thank you!

Should something special should be made in the configuration to make it work back free?

[naofireblade]

No, just restart homebridge. The plug-in will try api 3.0 and if it doesn’t succeed it will use api 2.5 (old one)

[matbe81]

Great. Thanks. Could be nice for some people to have the 2 version of the api in the provider list for forcing using a specific api.
