DARK SKY API DEAD

Open TATUMTOT opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

APPLE DID IT

Support for the Dark Sky API ended on March 31, 2023, and has been replaced by Apple’s WeatherKit API. Developers can use WeatherKit in apps with iOS 16, iPadOS 16, macOS 13, tvOS 16, and watchOS 9 or higher with a platform-specific Swift API, and on any other platform with a REST API.

Anyway we can get this to work with another API I really Enjoyed the UI of this module.

I think you should leave it, let it go :) Apple closed this, the similar things happened with another iCloud API...Now I am using OpenWeather on MagicMirror.

Thank you to the community and developers for creating such a fantastic module! It's been fun!

Is there a different free weather API that we can use instead? Could we adapt this module to a new API re-using the hard work that went to it + UX?

As already mentioned in another issue a replacement for the DarkSky API exists: Pirate Weather

It will also allow legacy applications to continue running after the Dark Sky shutdown, since as Home Assistant Integrations, Magic Mirror cards, and a whole host of other applications that have been developed over the years.
