So, I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 installed this using screenlets and when i click on start nothing happens. i click start and auto run at start up, restart and still doesn't show up. going back to screenlets it shows that the start box remains unchecked whenever i close out. Any Ideas?

How do you get this running? I am very very new to programing and ubuntu 9.10, so can you explain it very simply?

Added:
def on_draw(self, ctx):
calendar.setfirstweekday(calendar.MONDAY)
localweekday = {"Monday":calendar.day_abbr[0],"Tuesday":calendar.day_abbr[1],"Wednesday":calendar.day_abbr[2],"Thursday":calendar.day_abbr[3],"Friday":calendar.day_abbr[4],"Saturday":calendar.day_abbr[5],"Sunday":calendar.day_abbr[6]}

And changed each:
self.draw_text(ctx,'<b>' +localweekday[weather[1]["day"]] + '</b>', 0,0, self.font.split(' ')[0], 6, self.width,pango.ALIGN_LEFT)

Can you modify the repos?
Thanks!!

Any ideas on how to stretch the screenlet horizontally so that my city "Harrisonburg" is not cut off? All I see is "Harrisonbu". Thanks for the help.

I had the same problem with my town not displaying the full name that it pulled from weather.com. I was able to fix it by editing the ClearWeatherScreenlet.py file. Search for the following line:

self.draw_text(ctx,'<b>' + weather[0]["where"][:weather[0]["where"].find(',')][:10] +'</b>', -5,50, self.font.split(' ')[0], 6, self.width,pango.ALIGN_RIGHT)

You will want to edit the [:10] to the number of letters in your town name, so for Harrisonburg change it [:12]

After I edited it, I deleted the ClearWeatherScreenlet.pyc file and launched the screenlet again and I was in business with my full town name.

Good Luck!

It shows only five days, and some kind of a commercial icon instead of the sixth.

Seems to mostly work now. The forcast wont show the highs or lows. other than that it works now. thanks.

I found by googling you have to remove &prod=xoap from the URL open call in the python source. Did this, worked again :-) Obviously wheather.com changed their XML API.

You don't need delete all "prod" var, just "d" will be enough:
pro=xoap

But... the terms of use of weather.com have changed, in example: the logo must be included in the output of application :S

BTW I forgot to mention: I also deleted the byte-compiled original .pyc file after changing the source. I guess without doing so the change does not take effect.

Same problem here. Suddenly stopped working a day or so ago. It says "No Weather Information Available". I tried using the code from weather.com instead of my zip code, but this had no effect. Googling the problem reveals there is something that changed at weather.com in how they transmit the data and this version of the screenlet no longer works. Will an update be available?

You have to change a couple lines to get it to work, the 2 urlopen(... commands.

Line 135 for me (I have patched it previously though, so might not be the same line):

data = urlopen('http://xoap.weather.com/weather/local/'+self.ZIP+'?cc=*&dayf=10&prod=xoap&par=1003666583&key=4128909340a9b2fc&unit='+unit+'&link=xoap').read()

and Line 161:

data = urlopen('http://xoap.weather.com/weather/local/'+self.ZIP+'?cc=*&dayf=10&prod=xoap&par=1003666583&key=4128909340a9b2fc&unit='+unit+'&hbhf=12'+'&link=xoap').read()

restart the screenlet, and your golden.

You can also just add +'&link=xoap' to the end of the URL's manually.

Worked great for a few months...but now it cant get any forecasts for any location. I think weather.com broke the screenlet. Any fixes coming?

i input my zipcode and the screenlet shows the right town, but the forecast is off by a mile! it may be about 60 degrees outside and it says it is 9 degrees. is it using Celsius? i cant find a place to change it to Fahrenheit.
