newbie question: I have freeboard-SK running, I'm getting observations from NOAA and changed the API path for openweather from 2.5 to 3.0 - but freeboard says "no weather available" - what am I missing?

Just FYI, Openweather has deprecated their 2.5 api for new accounts. You have to use the 3.0 Onecall API which requires an account with billing setup. I did create a fork of openweather-signalk project that uses a fork I made of openweather-apis that changes 2.5 to 3.0 as it's backwards compatible if anyone runs into the same issue I did.

Is there a quick setup guide for influxbd and signalk-to-influxbd2 for an ignorant influxbd user. I can see on GitHub some instructions for both v1 and v2 plugins but not about setting up influx org and permission api keys and such. Unless I missed something…

Is there any way to get unparsed nmea2k data in a plugin? ideally filtered on pgn, src and dst? I need to parse pgns that are not present in canboat.

I'm used to using degrees/decimal minutes for positions, i.e. 020° 44.56' E. But this format is not selectable in Freeboard. Is there a reason for the omission? Am I the only one who likes this format? 🙂

I'm trying to set up leeway using the Derived Data plugin. on my boat, I'm getting attitude data from a Raymarine EV1. The SK path is navigation.attitude and it outputs a json object: ```{ "yaw": -0.7902, "pitch": -0.0009, "roll": -0.0278...

Is Hans here? I have a couple questions regarding B&G stuff.

problem starting development

I'm new to signalk development, trying to set up a development environment. Installed it raw on my mac, but get the following error after start: [Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/develop/signalk/signalk-server/node_modules/@signalk/server-admin-ui/public/index.html'] { errno: -2, code: 'ENOENT',...

Was just wondering, why there are "thumbs up" shown in the config of the derived-data plugin. Is this probably a rendering issue in my browser?

I'd like to help with support for Garmin Reactor autopilot for the signalk-autopilot plugin. I was thinking about listening for messages when switching between auto and standby to start with, just do a raw log of nmea and translate it to json with analyzejs. But any tips on how to find the culprits in the log, except trying to note the exact time when pressing the buttons? Or any other ideas on how to go ahead with this reverese engineering?

Hey @Scott Bender are there any plans/ideas to get wilhelmsk working behind the vrm proxy (or is it already possible today? although i dont get it working, maybe i am not configuring correct?). KIP is working now behind a proxy with help from David, using that for my Android tablet, but would be great to use wilhelmsk too on my ipad as there is a bit more widget/gauge support such as battery mgmt and raymarine mfd integration.

Is there a plugin that will remember the last good value for a signalk variable? When I'm away from the boat, I tend to turn off the GPS and AIS which stops all the navigation paths from updating. I would like to continue to log environment data but there's a couple of navigation paths that are required to calculate true and ground wind data. I'm looking for a plugin that would automatically update these paths when the live source isn't available.
