This WeatherAPI Project is a Neumorphic Dark-Mode Weather Website.

Built in Javascript ES6 and HTML, this repo operates with Open Weather Map API.

v1.1.4

scripts.js contains a library that could be used by anyone who wanted to use the OpenWeatherMap API in any project they might create. There are 3 functions built into this file. You are expected to provide your own API key from openweathermap.org. index.js and index.html are included for an example of operation. The variable apiKey can be inserted in line #19 of scripts.js or imported through a config.js which was not included and should be added into your .gitignore to prevent unauthorized access.

1. getWeatherByZip() allows searching by zip code.

• (params) are:
  • zip: A 5 digit USA based zip code
  • apiKey: You will need to input your own API Key for your project.
  • units: No entry will default to 'imperial', but options are 'metric' or 'kelvin')

2. getWeatherByCity() allows searching by city name.

• params are:
  • city: City Name
  • apiKey: Your API Key
  • units

3. getWeatherByGeo() allows searching with Latitude & Longitude.

• params are:
  • lat: Latitude
  • lon: Longitude
  • apiKey: Your API Key
  • units

All functions take input through a single input field and resolve to a promise that returns temperature, a short weather description, what the local weather feels like and the daily minimum and maximum temperature into HTML elements. The input field can differentiate between USA Zip code, City Name or Latitude/Longitude geo coordinates.

scripts.js is a self contained library for API calls.

index.js contains the scripts that allow index.html to function which is part of this repo but not necessary for your library.

fetch() resolves promises to set the temperature, description on elements in the DOM. The getWeatherX() functions are handled by a callback. A Promise simplifies and streamline the asynchronous code. async and await keywords are used with Promise to streamline the code. Additionally, the script.js file streamlines the 'openweatherorg' API's JSON data for better organization.

The getWeatherbyX() functions are automatically chosen within the catchAllWeather() function and resolved with If statements. This is done in a separate index.js file as the scripts.js library file only contains code for reusable API calls.

1. Moved scripts from HTML into a scripts.js file.
2. Linted with ESLINT according to Airbnb's guidelines.
3. Added README.md

1. Automated geoLocation through browser.
2. More methods for getWeatherByX()
