Plugins not compatible
-
I am seeing similar hanging behavior in Chromium.
-
I'll take a look.
At least I can tell you that the forecast are pretty darn accurate
-
@gwicke This should hopefuly be fixed in 3.0.3 - I guess it needs to be stamped by the windy team before it's available.
-
@vicb, thanks a lot!
@Suty, what is your take on the plugin infrastructure questions? Are there plans to make plugins more discoverable / usable for mobile users? Will there be a way for users to follow a plugin-referencing link like https://www.windy.com/plugin/sdg/48.612/-122.425?clouds,48.612,-122.425,10, and get some UI / workflow that lets them install the plugin & see the linked view? This would make it a lot easier to help other users get started with analyzing conditions for a particular flying site, for example.
-
@gwicke At this moment, we make a huge step with plugins, however, at this moment, there is no specific plan to implement them into the mobile app. I can discuss it with colleagues on the meeting next week, however, I can't promise anything.
-
@Suty I've published the plugin: https://github.com/vrana/windy-plugin-pg-mapa/actions/runs/8658990874
How long does it take to appear in Windy?
-
@jakubvrana Thank you for an update. I will forward it to colleagues for approval.
-
@Suty Does every new version need to be approved?
-
@jakubvrana Yes, we want to approve it after checking that, if there are any security issues. We want to be safe about this.
-
@Suty Is this at least automatic when I publish a new version? Or do I need to always notify you?
-
@jakubvrana At this moment, it is better to let us know, but we will optimize it and if there is any change I will keep you posted.
-
@Suty The Flight Planner plugin has been very useful. I would like to see it compatible with this new version.
-
@Suty to clarify, I was thinking primarily about making plugins more discoverable / usable on the mobile website. The app would be nice too, but mobile web would be enough for my purposes.
-
@vicb, opening https://www.windy.com/plugin/sdg/49.263/-121.882?namConus,clouds,2024041221,49.263,-121.882,12 still hangs for me with 3.0.3 installed.
-
@gwicke Are you sure it hangs ?
I noticed another issue which is that the map does not center on the location and release 3.0.4 to fix that earlier today (it's pending validation from the windy team).
But it should still work with 3.0.3 even if the map is not centered on 49/-122. The sounding should still load and if you drag the map around that position, you should see the pulsating icon.
Do you confirm?

@vicb said in Plugins not compatible:
@BallPic-0 The trajectory plugin is being ported by @rittels
traj should be up and running soon.

@gwicke Are you sure it hangs ?
@vicb, in both Firefox and Chromium I am getting the "this page is slowing down your browser..." dialog after a while, and the plugin does not load as expected. Here is a profile captured in Firefox:
Interestingly, the profile still seems to be referencing 3.0.2. The plugin UI lists the version as 3.0.3. @Suty, what is the expected upgrade behavior for plugins? There is no explicit "upgrade" button in the plugin listing. Are users expected to pick up the latest version of a plugin automatically?
-
@vicb, after manually deleting all windy site data in my browser, logging in again, and finally reinstalling the plugin to make sure it does pick up the latest version, I can confirm that https://www.windy.com/plugin/sdg/49.263/-121.882?namConus,clouds,49.263,-121.882,10 loads without a hang. Thank you for fixing this!
Hopefully the plugin upgrade & installation workflow issues can be fixed on the windy side. /cc @Suty
