OpenWeather (gnome-shell-extension-openweather) is a simple extension for displaying weather conditions and forecasts for any location on Earth in the GNOME Shell. It provides support for multiple locations with editable names using coordinates to store the locations, a beautiful layout, and more.
Weather data is fetched from OpenWeatherMap including 3 hour forecasts for up to 5 days.
After completing one of the installation methods below, restart GNOME Shell (Xorg: Alt+F2, r, Enter - Wayland: log out or reboot) and enable the extension through the gnome-extensions app.
Visit OpenWeather on the Official GNOME Extensions website.
These are the currently available 'official' release packages that align with the E.G.O release version. There is a package in the AUR that I maintain myself, and Artem Polishchuk maintains a package in the official Fedora repos.
Installing the extension this way provides a system wide installation.
Install using your favourite AUR helper, for example:
paru -S gnome-shell-extension-openweather
To install from the official fedora repos simply run:
sudo dnf install gnome-shell-extension-openweather
This method installs to your ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions directory from the latest source code on the master branch.
