Weather Tile Plugin

The Weather Tile Plugin integrates weather information into your Smart Panel dashboard using data provided by the Weather module. It offers two types of tiles: Current Weather and Weekly Forecast.

What It Does

This plugin connects to the Weather module, which pulls data from OpenWeather, and displays it on your panel through two distinct tile options:

Current Weather Tile — shows temperature, weather condition, and location
Forecast Tile — displays a 7-day forecast including temperature trends and conditions

Both tile types:

Sync automatically with the configured weather provider (currently OpenWeather)
Support location-based weather updates
Display in a clean, visual format with icons and text

Configuration

No plugin configuration is required in the config.yaml file. However, the Weather module must be configured to enable weather data fetching.

The weather tile displays data provided by the Weather module, which must be properly configured in your config.yaml file:


weather:
	location: Prague
	location_type: city_name
	unit: celsius
	open_weather_api_key: your-api-key
