#### Experimental (untested - help wanted)
The above is simple and great for testing, but it exposes your api key in client side requests. Using a server-side proxy to make the actual api call to dark sky and is highly suggested as this hides the API key from client side requests [[ref](https://darksky.net/dev/docs/faq#cross-origin)].
#### Proxy URL - Client-side be warned!
The proxy would receive a request issued by dark-sky-api and attach this query to a base uri (like the following: `https://api.darksky.net/forecast/your-api-key`) and return a final request.

To use a proxy set your api-key to false or an empty string, and pass a url to the proxy service as the proxy (second) param.

Passing true as the proxy parameter indicates that the caller is server-side (_and essentially a proxy_).
