No - you still have incorrect formatting AND wind direction is 'null' - openweathermap wind direction has not been downloaded (this occasionally seems to happen with some weather stations).

1) Yesterday I put an error check in the script for the wind data, so use the new 'get_vals( )' function...https://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewtopic … 585#p31585

2) Comment out the '${execi....}' line in the conkyrc, so you can investigate the weather.txt formatting. Change the "," to ".", as I already told you, and use an arbitrary wind direction. The file should now read

180
0.0 kn
0536
2136
0.0
Sarreguemines
clear sky

3) Restart the conky, and see if it displays OK. If so, uncomment the ${execi} line and try again.

If you are using the new get_vals( ) function, then even if wind direction = null, it should still load, but with "No wind data" displayed. At some time the data will come through again, but you can test by using another station with...

${execi 300 ~/2b_Wunderground_API/scripts/lua-weather.sh paris}

4) I don't yet know how to deal with your French-style decimal for the temperature data, so you will have to investigate that yourself.

4) Add this at the start of 'weather.sh', to enable the correct output:

LANG=en_GB.UTF-8

Hello damo

i used your modification and the conky work great for the moment and there is no errors in konsole.

i permice myself to modifie a little bit the weather.lua to have much colors in conky i change al "0.4" to "1", i call the script with this:

${execi 3600 ~/2b_Wunderground_API/scripts/lua-weather.sh 2975964}

I have just a question:

is that possible to convert kn in kms?

Glad you have it sorted out

openweather provides the metric speed in metres/second, so just change the multiply factor, and change "kn" to "kph", in lua-weather.sh:

        windspeed=$(echo ${all[7]}*1.9 | bc)
        windspeed=$(printf '%01.1f %s' "$windspeed" "kn")

(m/s)*1.9 -> knots

Work it out yourself for km/hr

@damo
@loutch

I am impressed. Very good work.
I just do not understand what that has to do with Teo's 2b_Wunderground_API.

Only the shell is still used

lua_load ~/2b_Wunderground_API/scripts/lua-weather.lua
    lua_draw_hook_pre conky_main


TEXT

${execi 3600 ~/2b_Wunderground_API/scripts/lua-weather.sh xxx}

Will you take me the tomatoes from the eyes. 8) :8
