Screenshot

gnome-shell-extension-openweather is a simple extension for displaying weather conditions and forecasts in GNOME Shell, featuring support for multiple locations, no need for WOEID, a symmetrical layout and a settings panel through gnome-shell-extension-prefs.

Currently, the weather data, including forecasts for up to ten days, is fetched from OpenWeatherMap.

Installation

After the installation, restart GNOME Shell (Alt+F2, r, Enter) and enable the extension through gnome-tweak-tool.

Through a package manager

Debian

Debian uses the (former master now ) yahoo-branch !

My fork of the extension is currently only available for unstable/sid.

Install the package through APT (or use your favourite package-manager, e.g. synaptic):

sudo apt-get install gnome-shell-extension-weather

Generic (Local installation)

Make sure you have the following dependencies installed:

  • dconf,
  • gettext,
  • pkg-config,
  • git,
  • glib2 (and development packages),
  • zip,
  • gnome-common,
  • autoconf,
  • automake,
  • intltool.
  • gnome-tweak-tool.

Run the following commands:

cd ~ && git clone git://github.com/jenslody/gnome-shell-extension-weather.git
cd ~/gnome-shell-extension-weather
./autogen.sh && make local-install

Configuration

Launch gnome-shell-extension-prefs (reachable also through the OpenWeather Settings button on the extension popup) and select OpenWeather from the drop-down menu to edit the configuration.

Screenshot

You can also use dconf-editor or gsettings to configure the extension through the command line.

If you switch from old openweathermap to the new master ( or openweathermap), you can load the settings with

dconf dump /org/gnome/shell/extensions/weather/ | dconf load /org/gnome/shell/extensions/openweather/

This can also work for most locations, if you switch from old yahoo-based master-branch (now yahoo) to the new master-branch (openweathermap-based).

The OpenWeatherMap maintainers recommend to use an API key. This key can be added in the preferences dialog.
