MeeCast for SailfishOS

Since Version 1.11.8 i cannot click on the days in the list for the forecast

Wed, 2024/12/04 - 18:42

What is source and station do you use?

Fri, 2024/11/29 - 19:49

A new question: using foreca and checking the 'next day', usually the hours are trunckated.

Like showing 1am till 9am and stopping there, instead of showing all the 24 hours as it should...

You are aware of this issue?

Sat, 2024/11/30 - 18:11

This is not a bug. Foreca gets the hours data only for one day at this url https://foreca.mobi/spot.php?l=105128581 for example.

Mon, 2024/12/02 - 12:53

Yes thats fine to show only the present day as full detailed. But the 'next day', in meecast, is not showing an 'overall' like it does on the later days, but just a few hours of forecast, like 1am, 2am 3am and stops, its kind or weird...

Is that connected to the 'segmentation fault' seemingly being worked on? The problem is very commented on the jolla store 'comments' section, users explaining the app doesnt keep their settings, the 64bits app (on 32bits seems fine)

Mon, 2024/11/25 - 14:23

This segmentation fault occurred in 32-bit Armel devices.

Mon, 2024/11/25 - 20:23

Oooh ok.

Well the issue i witness is happening on x10ii so 64 bits. Not on xa2 32 bits. The issue is Meecast not remembering any location. Re-opening the app is like a fresh start.

Jolla store versions.

Do you have this problem in the version 1.11.8 from openrepos?

Mon, 2024/12/02 - 12:49

yes same problem

first installed was 1.11.7 from jolla store, no change after update to 1.11.8 from openrepos

while starting:

error file open /home/nemo/.config/harbour-meecast/config.xml

xml config file removed, started harbour-meecast from the terminal, file was recreated by app with absolutely same content but no error message anymore and now it does remember settings and locations

Mon, 2024/11/25 - 22:37

I'll test. I use jolla store for now in this device

Fri, 2024/11/22 - 12:08

Hi!

Meecast remembers perfectly the locations on my XA2, but now testing on 10 II, and every time i open again the app locations vanished and its like a clean install...

Sat, 2024/10/12 - 12:55

Hi! From the icon page: https://github.com/Meecast/meecast/wiki/Iconsets

You may notice that for exemple scattered snow or heavy snow have exact same icons.. That is just one exemple between others... And that impacts the forcast a lot...

Sat, 2024/10/12 - 19:18

These are various icon sets that I have received permission to use from the authors. And I have not asked for permission to change them. These are standard sets. Links to the authors can be found on the About page in Meecast Application. Description of iconsets can be found here, for example https://forum.rainmeter.net/viewtopic.php?t=27709

Most beautiful and needed app in Sailfish OS. Must have. Thank you much, Vasvlad!

Weather is also no longer updating for my location. Tried different providers in settings, but always getting “No Information Available For This Location ”

Been unable to display weather in Eventview, despite the app's additional plugin {harbour -meecast event 1.1-5} being installed.

Currently the MeeCast-event package in this (OpenRepos) repository only supports SailfishOS < 4.6.0. A PR resolving this is on the way.

For now, you can either manually work around this or use the MeeCast-event package for SailfishOS 4.6.0 from the SailfishOS:Chum repository by first removing the MeeCast-event package from OpenRepos (e.g. by using Storeman) then installing the MeeCast-event package from SailfishOS:Chum (e.g. by using the SailfishOS:Chum GUI app).

Hi! Thanks for the work.
Eventview is not updating when app isn't running.
meecastd after "MyMWidget::update_data" spitts a lot of parser errors to journal log.
No idea if this is relevant.

How do you get a location that doesn't show in a Meecast search but is on the YR website to appear in Meecast?

I just filed a ticket on github, as I see Meecast 1.1.39-2 crashing with Weather Channel locations (Foreca seems to be OK).

Thu, 2024/07/18 - 15:15

Fixed in the version 1.1.40 of MeeCast. Try it

Recently, I have not been able to update Melbourne - Australia using source bom.gov.au with current data. Tried various locations within Australia.

When another weather source is added, Melbourne Australia (bom.gov.au) will show data but last update shows 1 Jan.

Other weather source locations work okay though the forecast is showing 14 days in advance.

ie (weather.com - Inuvik)

Current config: X10III SFOS 4.6.0.13, Meecast 1.1.39-2

Since 2 Apr 2024 refreshing fmi.fi data crashes Meecast JollaShop version 1.1.35. sf 4.5.0.25, XA2+.

Also crashing confirmed openrepos version 1.1.38.

Sun, 2024/06/16 - 19:42

fmi.fi source for weather forecast (http://m.fmi.fi/mobile/interfaces/weatherdata.php) is outdated. :(

I need rewrite the code for this source. But I don't know if I will have free time for this.

The = in file name needs to be escaped in config.xml. I solved this by adding a second file name tag, = is written to disk as \= and \= is read as =

There's just one problem: MeeCast won't start if config.xml isn't writable, and MeeCast breaks my changes at startup and every update. Changes in station name are persistent, though, which is nice, so I have Tampere (Foreca), Tampere (FMI), Tampere (OpenWeather) and Tampere (Yr.no).

Also, please fix the lock screen wallpaper's name to meecast.png so that the current one overwrites the previous one.

Some problems fixed in the version 1.11.7. See Changelog
