The admin interface on the website is not available any more. The API endpoints seem to be still active for existing subscriptions. - As announced here [https://www.wetter.com/apps\_und\_mehr/website/api/](https://www.wetter.com/apps_und_mehr/website/api/) (12/2020): wetter.com offers a new REST API via Rapid API. This extension does not support this new REST API yet. Administration -------------- [](#administration) ### Installation [](#installation) The extension needs to be installed as any other extension of TYPO3 CMS. Get the extension 1. **Get it from the Extension Manager:** Press the *Retrieve/Update* button and search for the extension key `openweatherapi` and import the extension from the repository. 2. **Get it from typo3.org:** You can always get current version from by downloading either the t3x or zip version. Upload the file afterwards in the Extension Manager. The extension ships some TypoScript code which needs to be included and configured. 1. Switch to the root page of your site. 2. Switch to the **Template module** and select *Info/Modify*. 3. Press the link **Edit the whole template record** and switch to the tab *Includes*. 4. Select **Openweather API - Weather Forecast** at the field *Include static (from extensions)*. Users Manual ------------ [](#users-manual) ### Creating a Plugin Content Element [](#creating-a-plugin-content-element) To show the weather forecast on a page: 1. Switch to the **Page view module** 2. Create a new page or select an existing page 3. Create a **new content element** and in the *“new content element wizard”* scroll down to the *plugins* section and select *“Weather Forecast”* 4. Switch to the **Plugin** tab, and enter the required fields based on your wetter.com API subscription: 1. Project Name 2. API Key 3. City Code 5. **Save** the new plugin configuration. 6. Switch to the frontend and validate if the plugin is working correctly. Please note: - When you open the frontend page with the plugin for the first time or after a change on the page, the API call to wetter.com is performed and data is fetched. - When you or another user loads the same page again, the API call is not performed again, since the content is already cached in Typo3 CMS. - The API will be called again after page cache expired (e.g. after 24 h). You can finetune the caching behaviour and API reloads. Edit the page record and switch to *"Behaviour"* tab. Select the proper setting in field *"Caching/Cache lifetime"* Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) ### Custom Templates [](#custom-templates) To customize the frontend output, define your own template and overwrite the template path in the constants section of the template module: `plugin.tx_openweatherapi.view.templateRootPath` To customize date / time formats, overwrite the Typoscript setting in the setup section of the template module: `plugin.tx_openweatherapi.settings.strftime = %A, %d.%m.%Y` ### Health Score 32 — LowBetter than 69% of packages Maintenance45 Moderate activity, may be stable Popularity8 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity58 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
