Screenshot

gnome-shell-extension-weather is a simple extension for displaying weather informations from several cities in GNOME Shell.

Compared to the original version, this fork brings you : multiple city, no WOEID, a symmetric style, and a settings panel in JavaScript (Seed).

Currently, the weather report including forecast for today and tomorrow is fetched from Yahoo! Weather.

Screenshot

You can also use dconf-editor or gsettings to modify some parameters from the command line :

City (Cambridge, MA (GNOME Foundation) by default)

You can specify your location using the following command. Perhaps you need quotation marks as in the second command.

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather city your_city (for more : your_city && another_city && ...)
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather city "your_city" (for more : your_city && another_city && ...)

Actual City (0 by default)

You can specify the actual location using the following command.

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather actual-city 0 ([your_city] && another_city && ...)
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather actual-city 1 (your_city && [another_city] && ...)
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather actual-city n (your_city && another_city && [...])

Temperature Units (optional, celsius by default)

You can modify the temperature unit using one of the following commands.

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather unit celsius
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather unit fahrenheit

Position in Panel (optional, center by default)

The position of this GNOME Shell extension in the panel can be configured to either 'left', 'center' or 'right' (requires restart of GNOME Shell).

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather position-in-panel center
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather position-in-panel left
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather position-in-panel right

Translate Conditions (optional, true by default)

You may want to configure whether to translate the weather condition. If enabled, the condition is translated based on the weather code. If disabled, the condition string from Yahoo is taken. Note: Enabling the translation sometimes results in loss of accuracy, e.g., the condition string "PM Thunderstorms" cannot be expressed in terms of weather codes.

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather translate-condition true
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather translate-condition false

Symbolic Icons (optional, true by default)

If desired, you can enable the usage of full-colored icons to display the weather condition (instead of symbolic icons).

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather use-symbolic-icons true
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather use-symbolic-icons false

Temperature in Panel (optional, true by default)

You can configure whether to show the weather condition text (aka. comment) together with the temperature in the panel (requires restart). If only weather condition text is undesired, consider Condition in Panel option.

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather show-text-in-panel true
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather show-text-in-panel false

Condition in Panel (optional, false by default)

Configures whether to show the comment (aka. weather condition text, e.g. "Windy", "Clear") in the panel. Note that the temperature is still shown (if undesired, consider Temperature in Panel option).

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather show-comment-in-panel false
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather show-comment-in-panel true

Refresh Interval (optional, 300 by default)

The interval to refresh the weather information may be set arbitrarily and is specified in seconds.

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather refresh-interval 300

Restart GNOME Shell

Don't forget to restart GNOME Shell ([Alt]+[F2], r)
