An updated version of the Weather Widget for KDE Plasma 6.

Fixed in this release:

  • Better Layout fixes for Horizontal/Vertical/Compact layouts.
  • The widget now uses the system default font again (unless otherwise set).
  • Tweaks to the Last Updated Text - it no longer wraps onto multiple lines, and can be disabled altogether.
  • You can now Single-Click a Location and click OK to add a new location in MetNo Search.
  • MetNo timezones should now work properly with Daylight Savings Time (I hope).

Major Bugs/Features/Issues to be sorted

  1. You can no longer access local FILE:/// urls using XMLHttpRequest. This breaks the MetNo Search. Two possible fixes:

    • host on a free web host - the downside is limited bandwidth allowances...
    • set QML_XHR_ALLOW_FILE_READ=1 - less secure and requires manual hacking by users
  2. Lots of "Attribute value not found" error messages in .xsession-errors using Openweathermap sources (due to their API omitting rain data if none is expected).

  3. Location times in the Meteogram might not be accurate, especially on OWM locations.

As far as I am aware, this is pretty stable now and apart from the issues above I have fixed all the major bugs. Unless someone finds a serious bug this week, I am aiming to release on the KDE store during the Easter weekend. As soon as I fix the rest of those pesky timezone bugs, I'll release it on the KDE Store...
