Openweather is an unofficial thin wrapper around OpenWeatherMaps API for requesting current and historical weather data

How to use

To request weather data a LocationSpecifier needs to be defined for the location of interest. The available methods of specifiying a location are:

• CityAndCountryName ({city: "CITY_NAME", country: "COUNTRY_CODE"})
• CityId (CITY_ID_CODE)
• Coordinates ({lat: LATITUDE, lon: LONGITUDE})
• ZipCode ({zip: "ZIP_CODE", country: "COUNTRY_CODE"})
• BoundingBox ({lon_left: LEFT_LONGITUDE, lat_bottom: BOTTOM_LATITUDE, lon_right: RIGHT_LONGITUDE, lat_top: TOP_LATITUDE})
• Circle ({lat: CENTER_LATITUDE, lon: CENTER_LONGITDE, count: NUMBER_OF_CITIES_OF_INTEREST})
• CityIds ([CITY_ID_1, CITY_ID_2])

Once a LocationSpecifier has been created it can be used to querry any of available API endpoints:

• get_current_weather
• get_5_day_forecast
• get_16_day_forecast
• get_historical_data
• get_accumulated_temperature_data
• get_accumulated_precipitation_data
• get_current_uv_index
• get_forecast_uv_index
• get_historical_uv_index

An example of querrying the current temperature in Minneapolis, MN:

extern crate openweather;

use openweather::LocationSpecifier;
static API_KEY: &str = "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE";

fn main() 
{
    let loc = LocationSpecifier::CityAndCountryName{city:"Minneapolis", country:"USA"};
    let weather = openweather::get_current_weather(loc, API_KEY).unwrap();
    println!("Right now in Minneapolis, MN it is {}K", weather.main.temp);
}
