weathercompanyapi-node

weathercompanyapi-node is a chainable Node client for accessing The Weather Company API

Getting Started

npm install weathercompanyapi-node

Instantiate

const WeatherAPI = require('weathercompanyapi-node');
const apiKey = '12312314';
var weatherApi = new WeatherAPI(apiKey);

Examples

To get location information for atlanta:

weatherApi.search('atlanta', 'city', function (err, data) {
    console.log('atlanta addresses', data);
);

To retrieve current conditions for Sydney, Australia:

weatherApi.location('2020', 'AU').call('observations/current', function (err, data) {
    console.log('conditions', data);
});

You can change settings such as units and language (currently only supports JSON result format).

weatherApi.units('m').language('de-DE').location('2020', 'AU').call('observations/current', function (err, data) {
    console.log('conditions', data);
});

The above example results in metric units and German.

Compatibility

Currently this library is compatible with the Enhanced Current Conditions and Enhanced Forecast APIs.
