I did manage to make some progress. I've been able to call the wunderground API, and was able to load some of the data into the appropriate strings. I was also able to add a field to insert the API Key into the plugin settings screen. I've never done PERL nor JSON, so it's been a challenge... I'm looking at my Touch, and it's showing the current temperature for the first time in quite some time, so that's a positive development. Some of the fields that the wunderground API returns don't quite match up with those defined in SDT, but using a couple different queries I hope to be able to fill in most of the information people use with close to the same information they're used to. So far I've only concentrated on the "current conditions", but hope to be able to fill in the various forecast fields as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tcutting's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17402 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=14327 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
