Warning: Refer to weather provider license about caching, storing and redistributing weather information.

Provides current weather information as an unified dict:

• time: monitoring time, unix timestamp
• lat: latitude
• lon: longitude
• clouds (%)
• temp: temperature
• hum: humidity (%)
• pres: pressure
• wind_spd: wind speed
• wind_deg: wind degree
• vis: visibility
• dewp: dew point
• uv: UV index
• icon: icon code (provider specific)
• description: human readable weather description
• precip_type: precip type
• precip_prob: precip probability (%)
• precip_int: precip intensity
• sunrise: HH:mm
• sunset: HH:mm

Weather forecast is not implemented (yet).

Note: some providers may not provide certain data fields, in this case they are set to None.

The module contains providers for:

• openweathermap: https://openweathermap.org/
• weatherbit: https://www.weatherbit.io/
• darksky: https://darksky.net/

Usage example:

from weatherbroker import WeatherEngine

w = WeatherEngine()
w.set_provider('darksky')
w.key = 'my secret api key'
w.set_location(lat=50.08804, lon=14.42076)

# the code below sets the same location, but DarkSky supports only coordinates,
# so we use them instead

# w.set_location(city_id=3067696)
# w.set_location(city='Prague', country='CZ')

# w.lang = 'cs'

print(w.get_current())
