weather-widget's Issues

Problem with API_KEY

Hello,

I had some issues running this widget. I was only able to run it by changing the way API_KEY was declared.

API_KEY = 'WEATHER_KEY''

instead of:

API_KEY = ENV['WEATHER_KEY']

Running: Ruby 1.9.3

Cheers.

Does not display data

Hi, I'm sure I'm using this widget correctly. I've got my city ID and my API key inputted in correctly, but my widget is still blank. I'm running Ruby 2.5.5 with Dietpi on Debian 10.

No Translation possible

Is it possible to translate the current weather? For example if in the widget stand "Rain", where can I translate to German "Regen"? Thanks!

Problem with some background icons

Hi,
Thanks for this widget.
I get some problems with large background icons which go outside widget like sun at the bottom (see capture). Some others (eg cloud) are OK are smaller.
Background for other widgets seem OK (see capture).
Unsure which css file to modify to fix this issue.
Thx
Tom
