Emacs frontend for Igor Chubin's wttr.in weather service https://git.cjennings.net/emacs-wttrin/atom?h=v0.3.0 2026-04-04T19:17:23+00:00 2026-04-04T19:17:23+00:00 Craig Jennings c@cjennings.net 2026-04-04T19:17:23+00:00 urn:sha1:a77a7b86f45ae96ff1802ea6f8b87dafd46b17b0 Dynamic mode-line tooltip, staleness dimming, location casing fix, debug guard refactor, expanded test suite (307 tests), and multiple bug fixes since 0.2.3. 2026-04-04T19:14:39+00:00 Craig Jennings c@cjennings.net 2026-04-04T19:14:39+00:00 urn:sha1:88a66244fd613662ee7d5d3a0ad4394cfafdb521 Move define-obsolete-variable-alias before its referent defcustom to fix "alias should be declared before its referent" warning. Add defvar for wttrin--force-refresh in wttrin-debug.el so the byte-compiler knows the dynamic variable is intentional. 2026-04-04T19:07:29+00:00 Craig Jennings c@cjennings.net 2026-04-04T19:07:29+00:00 urn:sha1:583ba34888e1c82da1f2bffbc913477c2e6a6df6 wttr.in updates its data roughly every 10 minutes (max-age=600). Add a note to both refresh interval defcustoms so users know not to poll more aggressively than the service can provide. 2026-04-04T18:38:57+00:00 Craig Jennings c@cjennings.net 2026-04-04T18:38:57+00:00 urn:sha1:8f89387201ed0cc7ddc5a758079a52a2ce12fe68 Remove obvious comments that restate what the code does ("save debug data if enabled", "temporarily allow editing", "align buffer to top"). Add comments explaining non-obvious decisions: why risky-local-variable is needed, why user-agent is curl, what wttr.in format codes mean, what the emoji extraction regex matches, and why after-init-time matters. Fix stale docstrings that no longer match the no-op stub pattern. 2026-04-04T18:26:10+00:00 Craig Jennings c@cjennings.net 2026-04-04T18:26:10+00:00 urn:sha1:de99a2930bbe65d7c2ea04656caa18823068c182 The emoji face (dimmed/normal) was frozen at the last update-display call, but the tooltip computes staleness dynamically. Between refreshes, data could cross the stale threshold — tooltip says "Stale" while the emoji is still normal. Track the rendered staleness state. When the tooltip detects a transition, trigger a re-render so the emoji dimming matches. 2026-04-04T18:24:01+00:00 Craig Jennings c@cjennings.net 2026-04-04T18:24:01+00:00 urn:sha1:752e2f825b1ee3eb513e27f2c03bcaef30eec767 float-time was captured in the outer let* before the async fetch. The callback used this stale value, making cache entries appear slightly older than they are. Move the float-time call into the callback so the timestamp reflects when the data actually arrived. 2026-04-04T18:21:46+00:00 Craig Jennings c@cjennings.net 2026-04-04T18:21:46+00:00 urn:sha1:821c7c1ded6bef400dcfda9aec27832f116ce369 string-match modifies global match data as a side effect. A predicate should not do this. Use string-match-p instead. 2026-04-04T18:07:50+00:00 Craig Jennings c@cjennings.net 2026-04-04T18:07:50+00:00 urn:sha1:f526cf641181e9cdb533a1f8a278de1fad49ca25 The tooltip was a static string computed at fetch time. Since every successful fetch sets the cache timestamp to now and immediately renders the tooltip, it was always "just now". Extract wttrin--mode-line-tooltip as a named function that computes age from the cache at call time. Set help-echo to this function so Emacs invokes it on hover, producing an accurate age like "Updated 12 minutes ago". 2026-04-04T18:00:19+00:00 Craig Jennings c@cjennings.net 2026-04-04T18:00:19+00:00 urn:sha1:25b760d805e98ff3c0f0f9b29f75a108fb1dce10 wttr.in's %l format returns locations in lowercase (e.g., "new orleans, la") regardless of the query casing. Replace the API's location prefix with the user's original wttrin-favorite-location string at cache time so tooltips display what the user expects. 2026-04-04T17:51:32+00:00 Craig Jennings c@cjennings.net 2026-04-04T17:51:32+00:00 urn:sha1:622ae39ad1e2544980cff73af8a5d5b2a64dacc8 Update copyright headers across all 37 .el files to include 2026. Add missing Author field to testutil-wttrin.el for consistency.
