To display the weather icons correctly, you will need to have a font that supports emojis installed. The screenshot uses Noto Emoji, but you can use other fonts too.
Assuming wttrbar
is in your path, it can be used like:
"custom/weather": {
"format": "{}°",
"tooltip": true,
"interval": 3600,
"exec": "wttrbar",
"return-type": "json"
},
This code is based on my old Python gist that was used for the same purpose.
