checkiday API URL appears to have changed

[lthown]

Checkiday is not working with the current API
CHECKIDAY_API_URL = "https://api.checkiday.com/tidbyt"

According to https://marketplace.apilayer.com/checkiday-api#documentation the API endpoint is https://api.apilayer.com/checkiday/events

do you think you can fix it ?

[tavdog]

nevermind, fixed in #581. I think. test it out and let me know.

Running this as an add-on in Home Assistant, so testing the change was... difficult =) Anyhow I was able to get the modified file in and it does show the new "Free API key from apilayer.com/marketplace/checkiday-api." string below the API key section so I think it's loading that part OK. Unfortunately the display is still showing the "error loading holidays" screen. I don't see any obvious way to debug it, the HA add-on is pretty walled off.

I poked around the apilayer "playground" and tried sending http gets, turns out you can't specify a Time Zone nor a date if you are on the free plan!

{ "error": "Please upgrade your plan to specify the timezone." }

So I removed (line 122) and now it works great
"timezone": timezone,

[tavdog]

So we should remove the timezone from the request ?

[lthown]

Correct!

Ok, I added a free plan toggle so that it will skip the timezone param.
