GNOME 3 Weather Extension |
When GNOME 3 came out Weather went away, so many have contributed to restore our collective sanity...
Execute this set of commands from a terminal to build and install the extension.
su - yum -y install gnome-common gtk3-devel glib2-devel intltool automake autoconf vala wget gnome-tweak-tool # You may have to copy and paste these commands... wget https://github.com/simon04/gnome-shell-extension-weather/zipball/gnome3.2 unzip gnome3.2 mv simon04-gnome-shell-extension-weather-* weather cd weather ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr make make install
Restart GNOME Shell (
[Alt]+[F2]
, r
)# start tweak tool gui from terminal (you installed this earlier)
gnome-tweak-tool
gnome-tweak-tool Enable Weather Indicator Extension |
# get your WOEID, Use your search key, and pick from the list.
wget http://xoap.weather.com/search/search?where=Austin -O - | grep Austin
# List weather extension settings
gsettings list-recursively $(gsettings list-schemas | grep weather)
# Set defaults for your account.
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather woeid your_WOEID
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather unit fahrenheit
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.weather show-comment-in-panel true
At this point, you should have the weather in the top bar of your screen.
Thanks Rick.
