just trying this package. Also really nice! Thanks for sharing.
I have a few questions/comments/feature requests, though:
1. Documentation of available targets.
I wanted to include the wind speed. Looking at the schema [fn:1] I
tried 'windspeed' which did not work. It took some time until I
found the 'weather-metno--data' variable, which revealed that it
is 'windSpeed' instead.
Some table with all the available measurements would be handy.
| parameter | representation | unit | example |
|-----------+----------------+--------+-----------|
| windSpeed | name | string | Svak vind |
2. How can I get a textual representation of the symbol?
I would like to get (additionally to the symbol) get a textual
description (like 'partly cloudy'). I did not see an obvious way
how to get that.
3. Two or three entries per day
How can I have two (night/day) or better three
(night/morning/afternoon) entries for each day? I would like these
to sum user-defined times. E.g. night: 20-08, morning: 08-13 and
afternoon 13:20. Is that (easily) possible?
4. The org agenda entry does not point to anything.
It would be cool (I think) if the org agenda entry pointed to a
*Weather* buffer with detailed information from weather-metno-forecast
5. The Readme for the manual installation could remind the user to put
(require 'weather-metno)
(require 'org-weather-metno)
in the .emacs
6. The documentation of 'org-weather-metno-format' points to
'weather-query-format' which should
probably be 'weather-metno-query-format'
Regards,
Andreas
