I admit I've only been skiming this thread, I tried kweather once, it didn't have my nearest airport, nor could I figure out how to manually enter my airport's code ID, so it wasn't really useful. That said...
If you are still interested you can tell me the station(s) you want to watch and I can add them manually as I'm already in the process of adding all german stations which are still working.
What I'd need to know is the ICAO code of that airport.
Or you can test yourself with some simple dcop calls in your shell like this:
# add Station by ICAO code dcop KWeatherService WeatherService addStation $ICAOcode # you need to wait a sec; I did 'sleep 1' in a script dcop KWeatherService WeatherService update $ICAOcode # again, wait a sec, then request the weather report (the little dialog # window opens and tells you if the station doesn't exist or needs maintaining (in which case you could try later) kweatherreport $ICAOcode # if it doesn't work, remove it dcop KWeatherService WeatherService removeStation $ICAOcode
Cool!
ICAO: KMBT
The command line ‘kweatherreport KMBT’ works and it’ll show in the KWeather applet, but the applet itself won’t display the station data (it displays what I added last, even if I remove it). I added the two references in case there is some other text/data needed.
Thank you!, Michael
PS: To get the dcop calls to work, you need to have (at least) the KWeather applet running.
