[Bug 1004802] Re: weather.com data feed license

 

I personally was using Freemeteo anyway, but weather API is certainly a
good idea. I suppose even differences in weather feeds won't be a big
problem...

Which screenlets were using the weather.com feed, anyway? More than one?
Users are welcome to fix or propose patches of course.

Title:
  weather.com data feed license

Status in Screenlets — individual widgets development:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  weather.com data feed is no longer free
  (http://www.tropicdesigns.net/blog/weather-com-suddenly-cancels-their-
  free-xml-data-feed-for-developers/). We should change to some other
  free data feed (http://www.worldweatheronline.com/). Also, maybe it
  would be good to write weather API and put it in screenlets core
  (sensors.py maybe?) because there are many weather type screenlets
  that pulls info from same location but every one of them implements
  different methods.
