I have created a conkymonster!
OH! ... wait that's a mirror!

Nice going f80!

TeoBigusGeekus · 2016-06-02 16:26:05

You've brought him to the dark side.

Sector11 · 2016-06-02 17:10:29

Yes, the darkside in the tradition of #!: Welcome to the darkside. And that's a good thing.

RIGHT? HUH! HUH!

This is so beautiful as the original with conkyForecast.

@S11
again an excellent realization of an idea (HTC) with a script by our friend @TBG.
Thank you very much!

Thank you. But may I clear up one little thing: ^ that's not correct, the 'Original' idea isn't mine:

Nice little conky though no doubt about it.

@TEO :8
@Sector11 That will contain the monsterconky .... need help friend
@unklar Good job

fvirgola80 · 2016-06-12 16:42:03

The force was with me .... I rediscovered the LUA code and I created my own monster conky ... 5 Day Forecast and forecasts to 22 hours ....

the script used is the V9000

Sector11 · 2016-06-12 19:16:41

OH MY! That a biggie! Well done.

TeoBigusGeekus · 2016-06-13 08:17:56

That's a conkyathan!

fvirgola80 · 2016-06-13 12:05:47

@ Teo

Masters there will be others ... may the force be with me

frankb · 2016-07-13 16:05:31

hi

i did everything in the hlp file for 1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font.

compiled it set my location. I just cant get it to work. It is currently in my root folder because i couldnt compile it otherwise. How can i get this thing to show up? thanks

TeoBigusGeekus · 2016-07-13 16:10:57

I suppose you use the C version, right?
Any error messages while compiling?
What about while running?

frankb · 2016-07-13 22:01:38

is it in the wrong folder? no errors in compile

TeoBigusGeekus · 2016-07-14 14:45:25

So, any error messages when you run the compiled file?

frankb · 2016-07-16 18:20:56

is there a beginning place for step by step instruction on installing conky weather scripts? I thnk that's the problem. Im sifting through info with no starting place. thanks

Sector11 · 2016-07-16 19:53:44

Actually it is quite simple. You mentioned that you grabbed: 1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font. If you extract the .tar.gz file to your home directory it's all set up with some conkys that will run without any problem.

Extract that file in your /home directory and you will have - /<your user_name>/ not /sector11/:

/home/sector11/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/1a_README_INFO
/home/sector11/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/.conkyrc_1a_int
/home/sector11/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/.conkyrc_1a_usa
/home/sector11/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/1a
/home/sector11/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/1a_c_version.c
/home/sector11/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/ConkyWeather.ttf

copy or move the font: ConkyWeather.ttf to:

~/.font

and in a terminal run the command:

fc-cache -fv

Now, there are two PDF files in /home/sector11/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/1a_README_INFO that will help you get started.
One will explain how to get the line you need in the "1a" bash script for your location

However right now you can run this:

conky -c $HOME/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/.conkyrc_1a_int

and get a conky running with the default location:

address="http://www.accuweather.com/en/si/ljubljana/299198/weather-forecast/299198"

as seen in the ~/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/1a script

You need to read the PDF in ~/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/1a_README_INFO and get to the accuweather site location and get the proper information for your location and set it up in the script:

For example, I'm in Buenos Aires Argentina so I would use this line in the 1a script:

address="http://www.accuweather.com/en/ar/buenos-aires/7894/weather-forecast/7894"

Starting the conky like this:

conky -q -c /home/sector11/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/.conkyrc_1a_int &

And there it is on the right:

On the bottom of my screen you can see a simple 1b2)Accuweather - ConkyWeather font running between my exchange/email conky and time/date conky.

TeoBigusGeekus · 2016-07-16 21:15:25

+1
Please ask a specific question about the scripts.
Which part of the guidelines do you not understand?

frankb · 2016-07-18 03:47:39

thank you very much. sorry for the delay.

do i run .conkyrc_1a_usa ?
like
conky -c $HOME/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/.conkyrc_1a_usa

got it up
how to load it auto on start up?

i only changed to my address in the 1a file

thanks again. !!!

TeoBigusGeekus · 2016-07-18 11:39:05

Go to

~/.config/openbox/

and open the file

autostart

with your favourite text editor.
Add this line

conky -c $HOME/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/.conkyrc_1a_usa &

at the end of the file and save.
Reboot.
Done.

Sector11 · 2016-07-18 14:20:07

^ If it doesn't show after rebooting / or when starting up, put a 'pause' in there, where 5 is a number of seconds to wait for your desktop to load:

conky -p 5 -c $HOME/1a_accuweather_conkyweather_font/.conkyrc_1a_usa &

-p | --pause= SECONDS
Time to pause before actually starting Conky

And another happy user!
