Rossby

A wrapper for the National Weather Service API

Info

Everything that is used to construct this wrapper is contained in the directory you are currently in. There are 3 files that wrap the entire API:

• rossby.py
• api_config.py
• default_response.py

All of the endpoints can be found in the file api_config.py, variable api_endpoints. Each key in this dictionary variable defines the name of a base endpoint that can be called on a Rossby() object. Subsequent key-value pairs represent the unique methods that can be called on the base endpoint.

Getting Started

Try this example to see how Rossby works:

from rossby import Rossby


rossby = Rossby()

kunv = rossby.stations.by_id(station_id='KUNV')

print(kunv.geometry)
print(kunv.geometry.coordinates)  # equivalent to kunv.geometry['coordinates']

office = rossby.offices.by_id(office_id='CTP')

print(office.address)
print(office.address.streetAddress)
print(office.responsibleCounties)

# NOTE: use dir(<response>) to see the attributes on a given endpoint, i.e.:
print(dir(office))
