### Wind speed

Choose the unit used for wind speed:

- `km/h`
- `m/s`

The displayed wind speed also includes the Beaufort scale where applicable.

### Date format

Choose between:

- `DD/MM/YYYY`
- `DD.MM.YYYY`

The selected format is applied to the plugin screens and radar display.

### Radar default zoom

The default radar zoom can be selected from:

- 5
- 6

- 8
- 9
- 10
- 11
- 12

The selected value is used when opening the radar for a saved location.

## 🎨 Appearance

The appearance/info screen provides additional customization options.

### Temperature overlay

The plugin can display the current temperature as an overlay.

Press **OK** on the appearance screen to toggle the overlay:

- `ON`
- `OFF`

The overlay is saved and restored between plugin sessions.

The overlay is designed to appear while watching live TV or when the relevant weather information screen is active.

### Icon packs

Two icon packs are available:

- **Standard Icons**
- **Extra Icons**

Changing the icon pack automatically restarts the plugin so the new graphics are loaded.

### 🏞️ Backgrounds

The built-in background picker allows you to select a background from the plugin's background directory.

Supported image formats include:

- `.jpg`
- `.jpeg`
- `.png`
- `.bmp`

The picker provides a preview of the available background images.

## Remote-control shortcuts

Several functions are intentionally available through color-key shortcuts.

### Location screen

| Key | Function |
|---|---|
| **OK** | Open weather for the selected city |
| **RED** | Exit |
| **GREEN** | Add a city |
| **YELLOW** | Remove the selected city |
| **BLUE** | Open TheWeather settings |
| **MENU** | Open rain radar for the selected city |

### Main weather screen

The main weather screen provides additional shortcut functions:

| Key | Function |
|---|---|
| **YELLOW** | Open RainRadar |
| **GREEN** | Change the hour interval |
| **BLUE** | Compare two cities |

### 🎨 Appearance screen

| Key | Function |
|---|---|
| **RED** | Exit |
| **GREEN** | Select Standard Icons |
| **YELLOW** | Select Extra Icons |
| **BLUE** | Open Background Picker |
| **OK** | Toggle temperature overlay |

### Comparison screen

| Key | Function |
|---|---|
| **RED** | Exit |
| **YELLOW** | Choose the second location |

## Weather alerts

The plugin contains local weather alert logic based on wind, precipitation, and feels-like temperature.

Current thresholds include:

| Condition | Threshold | Alert |
|---|---:|---|
| Strong wind | Beaufort 7+ | Strong wind |
| Heavy storm | Beaufort 9+ | Heavy storm |
| Heavy rain | 15 mm+ | Heavy rain |
| Very heavy rain | 30 mm+ | Very heavy rain |
| Warm weather | 30°C+ | Warm weather |
| Extreme heat | 35°C+ | Extreme heat |
| Severe cold | -8°C or below | Severe cold |
| Extreme cold | -15°C or below | Extreme cold |

If several conditions are active, the highest-priority alert is displayed.

Alert colors are used to distinguish the severity, including red, orange, and blue warning states.

## Data sources and networking

The plugin retrieves weather and location data from Buienradar services.

It uses:

- Buienradar location search
- Buienradar forecast data
- RainViewer radar metadata and radar tiles
- OpenStreetMap map tiles for the radar base map

The plugin performs an internet connectivity check using the Buienradar location service.

### 💾 Caching

Weather data is cached for **5 minutes** to reduce unnecessary network requests.

### Timeouts

Network requests use explicit timeouts to avoid blocking the Enigma2 interface for an unlimited amount of time.

Radar downloads are handled in a background thread and the results are processed back on the Enigma2 side.

## Configuration files

The plugin stores its configuration under:

```text
/etc/enigma2/TheWeather/
```

Relevant configuration files include:

```text
TheWeather.cfg
TheWeather_last.cfg
TheWeather_overlay.cfg
TheWeather_bg.cfg
iconpack.cfg
```

These files are used for saved locations, the last selected location, overlay state, background selection, and icon-pack selection.

## Display compatibility

The plugin contains separate layouts for:

- HD / 1920×1080
- SD / 1280×720

The interface automatically selects the appropriate layout based on the detected display width.

## 🌍 Localization

The plugin uses gettext translations and a dedicated `TheWeather` translation domain.

The plugin reads the Enigma2 system language and loads translations from:

```text
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/TheWeather/locale/
```

## Technical highlights

The current implementation includes:

- Python 2/3 compatibility handling
- HTTP timeout and response cleanup
- Five-minute weather caching
- Improved city/ID lookup
- Special-character handling in city names
- Internet connectivity checks
- Background radar network requests
- Controlled processing on the Enigma2 main thread
- Radar timer cleanup
- Validation for invalid hour values
- Sunrise/sunset handling
- Automatic SD/HD skin selection
- Safe cleanup of timers and image-loading resources

## 📋 Requirements

The plugin is designed for **Enigma2** receivers and depends on the Enigma2 Python environment and its standard UI components.

An active internet connection is required for:

- City search
- Weather data
- Rain radar
- Weather refreshes

## 📦 Installation

Install the plugin using your preferred Enigma2 package/install method.

The plugin directory is expected at:

```text
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/TheWeather/
```

After installation, launch **TheWeather** from the Enigma2 plugin menu.

## Quick start

1. Open **TheWeather**.
2. Open the location screen.
3. Press **GREEN** to add a city.
4. Enter the city name.
5. Select the correct search result.
6. Press **OK** to load its weather information.
7. Use **YELLOW** for RainRadar.
8. Use **GREEN** on the weather screen to change the hour interval.
9. Use **BLUE** to compare two saved cities.
10. Open **TheWeather Settings** to configure wind units, date format, and radar zoom.
11. Open the appearance screen to enable the temperature overlay, change the icon pack, or select a background.

## 📝 Notes

- RainRadar requires saved location coordinates. If a saved city does not contain usable coordinates, remove and add the city again to enable radar for that location.
- Changing the icon pack triggers a plugin restart.
- Weather information depends on the availability and response of the configured online services.

all language updated

🎨 Custom Weather Text Color
The 7-day weather description now has its own configurable color.

You can change the color in the COLOR section near the top of the plugin code:

Code
COLOR_DAYTYPE = "#ffffffff"
COLOR_DAYTYPE controls the color of the weather description displayed below each day in the 7-day forecast.

The color is applied in the _build_day_section() function at:

Code
color=self.COLOR_DAYTYPE
inside:

Code
"weertype2{}".format(day)
Example
Code
COLOR_DAYTYPE = "#ffffffff" # White
You can replace the ARGB value with your preferred color:

Code
COLOR_DAYTYPE = "#ffffff00" # Yellow
COLOR_DAYTYPE = "#ff87ceeb" # Light Blue
COLOR_DAYTYPE = "#ff00ffff" # Cyan
COLOR_DAYTYPE = "#ff00ff00" # Green
In short:

COLOR section → COLOR_DAYTYPE → _build_day_section() → weertype2
