Parsing/Downloading Weather Icons...

[kyriakos876]

I'd be interested if I could understand the link and how it works, if any of you can share your links that'd be great...

Google "Weather" and right click on the widget's icon you got (Biggest icon that shows the current, not the later icons) then click inspect, and share the link of the image if you will.

yea, so the "64" is the pixels of the image... 48 the smaller one. only variable looks like it's the last word.

Yes, but I resist that there is any direct correlation between the conditions "text", which can be anything, and I have seen hundreds of variations, and the name of the icon.

A possible solution would be to upload the icons with no names (sunny, fair or so on), but with the appropriate numbers, as those numbers are in a downloaded config.

Not sure it worth anyway...
At least if I didn't misunderstood something. Maybe I did?

Well, there has to be some short of correlation... I mean, so far these work:

Sunny
sunny_s_cloudy
Cloudy
Snow
Thunderstorms
Windy
rain
hot
typhoon
sleet

But sure, when it comes to direct correlation, it's already disproved... Mine says Clear with periodic clouds and the icon is sunny_s_cloudy

Well, sure but
1)I don't think I can upload icons forever somewhere and share them.
2)I think it's more convenient if you want to update the icons you just change the ones hosted already in a link (if I own the link, in this case is up to google obviously when they update the icons)
3)Less size for the skin?

I'm not sure if you can or can't. I never tried a such thing.

2)I think it's more convenient if you want to update the icons you just change the ones hosted already in a link (if I own the link, in this case is up to google obviously when they update the icons)

Here you probably are right...

3)Less size for the skin?

Again you probably are right. But don't think it worth.

Is there any chance that you have a "dictionary" for icon numbers in from this site " https://weather.com/" ? I want to know for example Icon 0 corresponds to sunny... etc.
