So do not manually update alert? Correct?

When I do:

This driver is really nice, thank you @bptworld for creating it!

I've got a good "High / Low" tile for each day working through some Rule-Machine machinations with token, but I'm struggling with mapping the available data to a set of weather icons.

Does anyone have a good way to map from the URL provided by weather.gov to a better set of icons? In my mind, I want to take " api.weather.gov/icons/land/day/fog", parse out "day/fog", and then map that to something like https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tomkp/weather-icons/master/png/foggy.png (just using that one as an example, open to others!).

The trivial solution feels like a lot of cumbersome Rule-Machine work, but I could just be missing how to create/use arrays in there.

Ideas? Examples?

How do you install the "packageManifest.json"?
I kept getting errors when I tried installing it as an App or a Driver.

BrianP · April 19, 2020, 7:35pm

You don't install that.

It's there for auto-update of Apps and Drivers, using Hubitat Package Manager.

@BrianP Thanks!

Not sure what issue I keep running into when trying to setup Weather Dot Gov.
But when I "click" on Unit Format > Imperial, I get an Unexpected Error pop up.

I installed the Drivers and Apps.....

I get to where it ask for Unit Format and as soon as I click on Imperial (US), then I get the Unexpected Error pop up... I have even tried to click on Metric, and I still get the Unexpected Error pop up.
