Apixu is no longer, Dear Apixu User,

Great News: Apixu is now weatherstack

After months of preparation, Apixu is now officially relaunching as weatherstack - a new, faster, more capable and completely rebuilt weather API service.
got new keys from weatherstack but get this error,

Error: No Error and No Location Data??

gone as far as i can, waiting patiently, peaple are grumbling, they can't look out a window lol

The new free api only does "Real-Time Weather".

I don't think it's worth trying to 'fix' the script to work with that new api.
The only default commands supported are !w and !wz

In Need of a Better Weather Source!!

I adapted my script to the current api, until we discover a new and better source Razz

Hello BlackShadow

I get this error when trying to use your script

[15:14:22] Tcl error [weather:get]: invalid command name "::json::json2dict"

you have loaded the http package
and an api key from weatherstack.com ?

it's working fine on mine

check if you have json.tcl installed. if not install it in scripts

BLaCkShaDoW Thanks for the script... Just a quick question... When I do a !w command, the observation time is about 4 hrs out on a set weather (ie I checked the weather at 8:12am a couple mins ago, and says observation time is 12:09pm. But if I do a !time command, the time is correct.

was wondering if there is a way to get both "m" and "f" working together, otherwise script is working fine Smile

Hrmm, my BlackWeather stopped working today, says Error: Your API request failed. Please try again or contact support... was working fine yesterday

roger · Halfop Joined: 17 Jun 2018 Posts: 56

the reason for the diffrence is the weather is set to greenwich mean time. i got curious after your post.

i got the same error yesterday when i tried looking yo someone's weather who didn't have a default weather location set. tried my own weather location and it was fine.

I solved (sorta) the api issue... I had mine set to an airport code, which was working until today, when I switched to my actual city name, it started working again
