Today I received an email from forecast web site because the big amount of requests I’m having. When I got into the site I see that, as of today I’ve made 33,397 requests! and counting.
Can I have some information on how this component works? how many requests per day should this component be doing?
The same thing happened to me today, I checked on the forecast api website, it seems that the number of requests per day increased the day I installed the latest version.
Take a look at this thread. I was talking with two other users having the same issues. Not sure what the cause is - I was originally on a Windows platform and I mentioned I wasn’t having the issue, but this weekend I moved over to a RasPi like the other users and I am still not having the issue. Whatever it is, it seems to be affecting a limited number of users.
Are you both on virtual environment HA installs? I was wondering if something may have been updated that is causing a conflict. I am on a VENV Pi install and not experiencing the issue.
You may want to report this as a bug on github or mention it in gitter.im since there’s been a few users reporting it.
Unless one of you is on Windows, there wasn’t any reports of this on Windows in the thread. In fact, I was on Win10 and didn’t have the issue. And when I moved everything over to Pi, I’m still not having any problems.
