open-meteo VS room-assistant

Yup, just manually type your location in that window.

Weather is coming (at least for now) from https://open-meteo.com/

I tried out the new omWeather and I definitely like it even better now. It uses a different data source, open-meteo.com, which doesn't require an API key the way OpenWeatherMap does, has better location search, has working sunrise/sunset time display, and a more informative main screen widget with observation and forecast information.

Then I started to learn about wind and I got interested in getting wind details easily so to note them down. I asked around my community and I got an answer: open-meteo.

Open-Meteo

We used free and open-source weather API Open Meteo to get a real-time forecast and convert data such as windspeed into the Beaufort scale for surveying.

I ran into this exact problem almost a year ago now when I first started learning. Simple answer is you can’t unless you build your own server and use environment variables. My solution was to use an API that doesn’t need a key.

Also, I am using the bluetooth on the Pi to drive Room Assistant, to tell which room I'm in and automatically switch on the audio in that room when I am in that room, and switch it off when I leave. It also has support for the grid-eye sensor which looks like the flir sensor you useThere's also a similar project for ESP32 called ESPresence.

Check out Room Assistant. I have 9 RaspberryPi Zeros set up around my house and these do a great job tracking which rooms our cats are in, provided that we put a tiny BLE dongle on their collar.

Earlier I had six raspberry pi's spread around the house to try out new things (e.g. room level presence detection - which did not work well despite weeks of tuning - and as snapcast clients). But it became a pita to keep watch over so many independent systems, updating them, remembering the IP, passwords, forgetting what I have installed last time, etc. This is what I like with the whole docker thing: fire up a container, tweak it, and then if it is not used delete it again without affecting the other services.

There's a project called "room-assistant", however you'd need to have multiple Raspberry Pis running it in various locations...

You can try room-assistant. It takes your Bluetooth devices and calculates distance, works quite nice in my environment for in room detection.
