OneSky Forecast Setup

Overview

The weather app is an cross-platform Avalonia UI sample app meant to connect to Open Meteo stations and display real-time weather data. It was born from the collaboration between Xcalibur Systems, and UXDivers.

This application can run as a desktop app, on Mac or Windows, or it can run on a low-power device like a Raspberry PI.

Run in Fullscreen, no Titlebar

If you wish to run the application in fullscreen mode without a titlebar (ideal as a DRM alternative), you can do this by setting the following in preferences.json:

{   
    "is_desktop_mode": false
}

Run on Raspberry Pi

In the case you want to run this app on your Raspberry Pi and wish to have access to the onscreen keyboard Squeekboard, set the following in preferences.json:

{   
    "is_raspberry_pi": true
}

Run in DRM

We offer a DRM mode for those that wish to setup kiosks. If you wish to do this in Linux you can execute by the following:

./Xcalibur.Weather --drm
