Load our meteorological data into your Windy Plugin

Thanks for the notification. I'll update my plugin.
I am not using compiler.js (because it has too many limitations for my use case). So could you please describe the differences ?
Is it that plugin should be imported from
@plugins/{name}
?ie
W.require("pluginDataLoader")
should be changed toW.require("plugin-data-loader")
Many of plugins will be offline until we update our code.
What does that mean ? When can I try the updated version ?
-
I had the following code
plugins["detail-render"].load().then(() => { W.define("meteogram-ext", ["meteogram", "Class"], function(m, c) { return c.extend(m, { legend: () => this, }); }); store.dispatch(soundingAct.setMeteogram(W.require("meteogram-ext"))); });
which does not work if I replace "detail-render" with "@plugins/detail-render" any hit ?
The error is
an not resolve @plugins/windy-plugin-sounding module TypeError: Cannot read property 'load' of undefined

I think by "offline" you actually meant "broken".
I have published 1.1.8 that fixes it.I was actually using the meteogram to get the rain cloud cover.
I did that by trapping inside the meteogram canvas and check the color...I would be great if you provide and API to get the rain cloud cover at a given time and altitude - or make that part of the loadable data.
Do you think this is possible ?

We changed package path naming in a client version 27.
@windy/*
packages are from client core (shared components across the whole client, important for initializing and basic functionality) - but this namespace is traspiled during build to "old style" for some reason!@plugins/*
packages are all plugins (eg.plugin-data-loader
)- no namespace is used for requiring local modules
Also we switched from camelCase to kebab-case.
So @vicb if you are using
W.require
directly without our compiler, I would recommend you to check the content ofW.modules
on windy.com. -
var pluginDataLoader = W.require('@plugins/plugin-data-loader');
-
@vicb I think if you access the plugins directly, thus not importing (or requiring), then it is still W.plugins['detail-render'].

@marekd, thanks for the update. Backwards compatibility is sacred for me so I'm surprised that you break it just to change a name, especially if there are official docs and examples around. I can understand that this was an omission but I don't understand not reverting it once reported. Can you please at least keep both names? (I don't know if some kind of aliases are possible here.)

Thanks for the info all, I've added a patch for SkewT :)
