Conky ?? (NUKED)

[Neal ManBear]

Every step forward is a step closer to the ultimate goal.

This thing is easier than I thought, thank you

It can be as easy or as complicated as you want (I choose the easy way )
Glad you found my .conf useful as a starting point Crow, You can now morph it into what ever you want as you have already started to do with Leiche's conf's. As far as weather goes, I found a conf here (Hannah- 6th post down) who has weather in her .conf's
http://crunchbanglinux.org/forums/topic/59/my-conky-config/
Maybe that will give you some ideas?

http://conky.sourceforge.net/variables.html has info for weather as well

Best of luck to you!

[Crow]

Thank you weirdwolf, will try that

[Meemaw]

Hope you got conky sorted out, Crow.....

I keep messing with mine to try to improve it..... (haven't found a weather section I like yet!) and parnote and Sproggy each have good conky scripts as well... (they may be posted somewhere on the forum already.)

My Conky



extract the .7z file ... rename the conky folder to .conky and the conkyrc to .conkyrc and place both in your home directory

you will need to install LM-Sensors ... and run sensors-detect as root ... mine is a Quad core version but you can remove the none needed cores ...

to edit the Gmail Settings open the gmail.py file in the scripts folder and enter your username and password for Gmail and save the file ....

to edit the Weather settings open the .conkyrc and edit the following section

${GOTO 36}Machine:${GOTO 120}${machine}${GOTO 120}${GOTO 548}Public IP:${GOTO 632}${execi 10000 ~/.conky/script/ip.sh}${GOTO 632}${GOTO 804}${rss http://rss.accuweather.com/rss/liveweather_rss.asp?metric=1&locCode=EUR|UK|UK105|Bedford 300 item_titles 1}${GOTO 1060}Conky Version: ${conky_version}

adjust the rss feed:-

Go to the accuweather rss url

http://www.accuweather.com/rss-center.asp

choose location and take a note of the returned url - in my case

http://rss.accuweather.com/rss/liveweather_rss.asp?metric=1&locCode=EUR|UK|UK105|Bedford

Replace the address in the url command with yours

it might help if i added my archive DUH!!!!

You think?   

[Meemaw]

Well, I used a couple of people's scripts....  (thanks for the weather, Sproggy!!!) and this is mine which I can share...   but I'm using xfce....  but it should work the same on lxde.


 
 

[Crow]

Meemaw I made some things work thanks to the posts of weirdwolf and Leiche as you can see here http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php/topic,90609.msg759621.html#msg759621  

I will add the lines of Sproggy for weather  

Edit.  I remembered that I made some changes, here is the latest

[Meemaw]

Very nice, Crow!!!!

This is a very nice one, Meemaw.  Care to share your script?

Thank you Meemaw weather added  


Edit. Trying to understand where I download the code for my city

Edit. Trying to understand where I download the code for my city

Well, I'm not sure how Sproggy did it, but the only place I could find it was to right-click the page and 'View Page Source'.... (after I chose my location)...... towards the top of that code it said "AccuWeather.com RSS Feed for my town"  and the link was right after it....  I never could find it on the actual page (unless I'm blind.......)

Hope that helps....
 
 

[Crow]

I think I'm the blind, I can't find the needed lines   

Maybe tomorow
