@jhmarshal
This is surely due to this change:
https://community.windy.com/topic/16811/plugin-developers-stay-alert-we-are-refactoring-windy-com-client-codes-to-typescript?_=1637686473652

And this plugin has probably not been updated by its author.

@idefix37 @JHMARSHAL Sorry about that. I haven't kept track of windy the updates. I'll fix the plugin when I find the time to do so (hopefully soon).

JHMARSHAL

@jacobsjo thanks bro

I've now released version 0.3.4 that fixes another loading issue that resulted from changes on windy.

@jacobsjo Is it possible to display whether the sunrise can be seen on a certain day?

@lrlss Hello, the article above describes what the Sun position plugin offers.

Installed the plug-in. When I select "sun position", it shows 0 for sun and moon's position, moon's phase is incorrect, and time shows 12.:25 for DST time of 7:04 pm. How do I fix it? Thanks!

Hi @jacobsjo it seems a change on windy has broken the sun position plugin, is this something you will be looking to resolve soon? Many thanks for your work on this plugin.

@jacobsjo This was the message we received off the windy forum admin.

"Hi @HiDefAerial, unfortunately, plugins need to be updated with our new release of version 39, however, we need to wait for developers of these plugins. Developer of this plugin, @jacobsjo, could let you know about this."

Many thanks

Would love to see an update for this plugin so that it works again - be seriously handy having this on the map. :)

Plugin version 0.3.6 fixes the loading issues caused by changes to windy. Sorry it took this long.

This is now the 5th time in 4 years I had to update the plugin because some change to windy broke it. If this trend continues, I can't guarantee that I'd be willing/able to do this in the future - especially if the info about the breaking changes comes from users complaining that it doesn't work anymore; some less polite than others. Unless things change, this is no longer an ecosystem I want to spend time contributing to.

So if someone else wants to take over the maintenance of this plugin - or rewrite it - they are more than welcome to do so; otherwise this might be the last update. Thanks for the support until now though!
