how to fix cerebro-timezones and cerebro-converter plugins

fix.md

In order to fix them, a manual change needs to be done in the plugins/node_modules folder.
For Linux based systems, it is usually under ~/.config/Cerebro/ folder.

cerebro-converter

Two main issues:

• cerebroapp/cerebro-converter#21
• cerebroapp/cerebro-converter#20

Solution:

• Open plugins/node_modules/cerebro-converter/dist/index.js

• Find this piece of code on it: https://github.com/cerebroapp/cerebro-converter/blob/87b45e487572dad754067d510295fd871225d20e/src/currency/getUrl.js#L4-L13

• Create an API_KEY for yourself in https://fixer.io/ and change it in the API_KEY variable

cerebro-timezones

Issues:

• API call using HTTP (not HTTPS)
• Hardcoded API_KEY does not exist anymore

Solution:

• Open GCP, create a project, create a credential that can use GEOCODE and TIME ZONE APIs.
• Open plugins/node_modules/cerebro-timezones/dist/index.js (this one will be harder because it's minified)
• look for Google API URLs by seaching for maps.googleapis.com in your IDE.
• replace http:// with https://
• add a &key=YOUR_API_KEY to the geocode API request
• replace the key in the timezone API request with yours

Reload the app and you should be good!
