Search Results for 'conky weather'

[Member sleekmason]

Here is my Star Wars result.

I found I could use a single file in ~/xscreensaver/settings for what I needed. I just changed the xscreensaver path to the settings file and everything works. This makes it a bit easier to edit when in ~/home.
I still needed the getrss2txt file, but not the gen_sst file. I used sed to parse the moon stuff, and cat to read the total raw weather my conky generates. Because I like the fortunes package, I was delighted to find I could just add a line with “fortune” and it was picked up well by xscreensaver. Pointing to other txt files is a breeze.
–
I had problems when trying to add other rss sources. Don’t know why. The World News is good.
I liked all of the weather options available, and may switch to one of them in the future:)
–
Still messing with it and am having fun doing so!
–
–
I have a question about how to add space between the messages so they are not grouped one after the other.
Is this possible?

I got the screen saver itself working pretty well now. Need to work on the web browser idea more and create modularized scripts and the directory processor. Here is a high speed video of it and the script used to create it thus far. The scripts for the weather related pages are in the recent conky thread.

posting video from phone will add script here.  My apologies to 736, i have to come back to the python later after I have this working...

Concept: I really don’t care that much about screen space when the screensaver is running. What a great opportunity to display things I want to know, things I need to remember, or some fun things here or there, too… And can it look appealing, too?

So Xscreensaver has on the advanced tab a Text Manipulation option that includes the ability to display a file or even run a program and display what would normally go to standard output.

I never could remember the Keyboard shortcuts for IceWM because I don’t see them and never use them. Its a viscous circle because not using them, or seeing them, I’ll never learn them, either.

Why not use the screensaver to teach me things that I want to learn or remember, but never have time to?

So 736 graciously wrote a Python to take the ~/.icewm/keys file and make readable text out of the key assignments. I’ve been wanting to learn Python, so that’s really pretty cool.

I’m also learning shell scripting, and have a bloated conky that has a news feed and weather, both of which would be nice parts of a sceensaver text sequence, and could be made to popup on demand with a button, menu option or shortcut key.

And what about a daily events calendar? To do list? Multiple news feeds?

So, I’m thinking about it as a shell program that runs a script that processes all the executable files in a folder, like /etc/xscreensaver.d, sorted, and each program that runs sends its output to the standard output and appears as the text in the screensaver.

For example:

0010dispicekeys.sh
0020dispicepreferences.sh
0030dispnewsfeednpr.sh
0040dispnewsfeedbbc.sh
0050dispcurrentweather.sh
0060dispweather7d.sh
0070disptodolist.sh
0080disptodaysevents.sh
0090dispcalendar.sh

Add a screensaver that displays text in a cool way like Starwars, tweak the scroll speed, and it will both look nice as well as be functional and configurable.

Howdy sleekmason,

Here’s pretty much the final version, I opted to no, on transparency, so you could see the text plainly. I will add the conky files if you are interested. Still working on a weather conky will be a few days though.

Here are the files: I put them as a tar for space considerations.
In order to run both conky’s, note changes to ~/.desktop-session –> desktop-session.conf –> change LOAD_CONKY=”true” to “false” and edit
the ~/.deskstop-session startup file adding: of course substitute your user name 🙂 and path

#start Conky from ~/home/ohh/conky_files
sleep 10
conky -c ~/conky_files/conky_right &
conky -c ~/conky_files/conky_left1

also modifiy /usr/local/bin/conkytoggle.sh so it is same as above, again with your path and username

if pidof conky | grep [0-9] > /dev/null
 then
  killall conky 
 else
  conky -c ~/conky_files/conky_right &
  conky -c ~/conky_files/conky_left1 
fi

cheers,
ohh

Created a super easy conky weather in text format. No icons, fonts, or anything else to mess with but a single file to change location, and an addition to your .conkyrc.
–
Based off of accuweather rss-1 from here: https://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewtopic.php?id=189
–
This weather script gives the current condition plus 2 days forecast. Updates every 10 minutes.
–
–
–
The file to place in your /home folder from the sleekweather.zip is .weather, a hidden file, so when you don’t see it, enable hidden files.
–
Info: Inside .weather you will find the file “1d” Two additional files are created when calling “1d”, “weather_raw” and “weather”.
Conky will read from ~/.weather/weather.
–
–
–
Steps:
1. Move .weather to $HOME (i.e. /home/sleek/.weather)
–
2. Open the file “1d” inside .weather and change your zipcode where indicated. If in locations other than USA, please refer to the link above for directions.
–
3. Open your .conkyrc file using either the antiX control center or your favorite text editor.
–
Copy this to the bottom of your conky and save:

${color2}${execi 600 $HOME/.weather/1d}
${color2}${execi 600 cat $HOME/.weather/weather | fold -s -w29} 

–
Would love to have the more elegant method for calling the script with conky . . .(one liner?), and any other code changes others may suggest.

Thats it! Just another weather option.

At line 67/68 its pretty well marked in getweather7d.sh. Change the width from 80 to 29 and the number of line to the maximum you can fit. You can probably squeeze in today and tomorrow, anyway. They could probably be passed from the conky as a parameter, or just strung along in the conky code like you did with the current conditions

		# wrap text for 80 char wide display, limit to 23 lines of output
		fold -s -w 80 /tmp/getweather7d.tmp90.txt | sed -e '23,$d' > /tmp/getweather7d.tmp99.txt
                           ^^                                       ^^                                  

[Member sleekmason]

The neat one is the 7 day forecast. See how I shrunk it to fit?

Yah, I like that one as well but ran out of room! Tomorrow I’m going to separate a few items out and make two or three separate windows.

I probably went through 10 downloads scouring the internet for a conky weather that would work. Thank you:)

[Member sleekmason]

That weather is an easy add! Thank you!

For those that just want the weather, take the getweatherc.sh from Bob’s /usr/local/bin, put it in yours, and change the permissions to make it executable.
Add this line to your conkyrc:
–
${color2}${execi 300 getweatherc.sh KORD | fold -s -w29}
–
You will need to change KORD to your own airport weather code. Not sure the codes are only for airports. Mine was. The directions are in Bob’s Conky.
–
I changed the above conkyrc code to match the existing antiX conky style, and added a fold in order to have it all fit. Don’t know if less info can be displayed . . My airport had less info than KORD did:) Nice addition.-
–
–
***FYI, If you comment line 45, and uncomment line 46 of getweatherc.sh, the result will be better readability

	#locationx=$(from_xml "location")
    location="$(echo "$locationx" | cut -f1 -d",")"

I think if you simply add another file without re-adding the old one, it loads only the new . . . maybe. can’t hurt to try it:) By the way, Got the weather working. Nice, simple little deal there. Just one sh file and a single line in Conky.

[Moderator BobC]

Ok, My conky has been cobbled together over the years. Its not perfect by any stretch, as I don’t actually know much linux stuff, just learning as I go. A good example being that /tmp doesn’t need to write to the disk. So here is a pic of it in its current form, and the conky code itself. I’ll put the scripts it runs in a tar file…

PS: something that I realized, my xbattbar is modified to be able to output a file for the script called by conky to grab the latest value from, and the maintainer never never replied, so I need to come up with a way to distribute that for the battery section to work well. I’m also changing the scripts to use files in /tmp when files are used.

I tried to fix the image so you can see the whole thing, but it posted a 2nd picture instead of replacing the first one. Oh well, if anyone knows how, delete both and I’ll try again with an even smaller one….

I added the tar file. You need to have xget, curl and xbattbar, as well as conky installed for this to work. My xbattbar programs (source included) are compiled on an _x64 system, but I don’t know if that matters. Someone like Dave or Skidoo that know what they are doing should look at my code before you guys try to run it, as like I said, I am no linux guru, and can barely tread water. That means I tried, but no warranty 🙂 Ok, the website won’t allow a .tgz file, so I have renamed it to .zip to try that. If that works, you will need to rename it back to .tgz to unextract and install it.

Sorry, I would remove the pics and try smaller ones, but can’t figure out how…

Howdy BobC,

Glad you found a solution that works. Also, . . Noticed you have weather on your conky . . any chance you’d be willing to share here?

I can’t seem to get any of the ones I find to work!

[Member sleekmason]

I’ve been looking into conky more and more! The options seem limitless.
Below are all the changes Iv’e made to the existing ~/.conkyrc. (See Screenshot!).
–
Personally, I think it is much more usable now with more info. I cleaned up the code a bit too. Everything uses color2, and so the color can be changed with just the one code change.
–
I also changed in mine up above the TEXT line:

# Update interval in seconds
update_interval 2

From one second.

At the bottom of this post is an addition you may want that gives the top (no pun intended) 5 processes for both cpu and memory. Could be useful to some.
–
–
Anyway, if you would like to try my version, make a back up first in case you decide it was a bad idea;) You may also want to install fortunes, and fortune-mod if you like the cookie at the bottom.
In a terminal:
cp ~/.conkyrc .conkyrc.bak
–
–
Then open up ~/.conkyrc with your favorite editor and change everything under “TEXT” with the below. –> Save.

I had to use offsets on mine. And that goes for all of these I post. Conky is fickle. Sometimes adjustments to the offsets don’t translate well.

I might try to get an easy weather report in there too. Maybe just temp and condition.

( posting a couple bookmarked links b/c I don’t have any remarkable self-made conky mods )

LOTS of ideas in this 81pp topic at BunsenLabs forum:
Topic: » Conky weather+moon scripts (Accuw/WUndergr/NWS/MoonGiant)

and the BunsenLabs “Tutorials” subforum showcases several conky mod ideashttps://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewforum.php?id=9

Here’s an interesting fortunes datafile: https://github.com/KERNELULTRAS/kernel-fortune/blob/master/fortunes

I would ask you to put it right here in tips and tricks.

Alrighty then. From my post in another tips and tricks thread.

Might mention using the tab key to finish completing the typing out the dpkg -i command when building the kernel .deb. package.

It saves my bacon a lot when in a folder with a terminal and trying to be geeky. Nice tutorial as always sleekmason. Thanks.

example on mine

harry@biker:~

harry@biker:~
$ cd ba

I hit the tab key after typing in ba. Walla

harry@biker:~
$ cd ba
backup/      batti-0.3.8/ 

so to narrow things down. I type in ‘batt’ Hit the tab key

harry@biker:~
$ cd batti-0.3.8/

The tab key keeps me from making typo errors when typing out large lines of code. Being I have large ham hands and fingers and am a 2 finger type of keyboard user.

Note by ROK. Maybe Just to explain a little better.

harry@biker:~/Documents/Documents
$ ls

$ 

Lets say I wanna get into the pastebin folder but do not want to type pastebin out.

harry@biker:~/Documents/Documents
$ cd pas

Hit the tab key

harry@biker:~/Documents/Documents
$ cd pastebin/
harry@biker:~/Documents/Documents/pastebin

As a freebie to this how to . I use the ls command to see what is inside the pastebin folder . If I want to know permissions allowed of the files in there. I use ls -l instead.
cd command is my friend in terminal moving around the AntiX Linux house I built. Like a skate board. But using linux command shortcut lingo is another subject with a ton of learning involved that I will not cover in this thread. There should be a bookmark in your AntiX folder in your browser for command line.

Inxi also gives some weather information if I remember correctly. I cannot recall the syntax at the moment… inxi -wxx?

Mainly current conditions. I run a simple weather for current tempature outside in conky also. From here.

Since it is mostly just temperature in the desert you wish to know about.

Here is inxi weather

I’ve been using curl and wttr for a while now myself. I think I poisted about it back at the old forums. Thanks skidoo for updating this forum. We left a lot behind in the move. Kinda reminds me of when I moved my Mom from the Farm to a retirement community. The cool things I left behind hurt my feelers.
