A laravel wrapper for OpenWeather "city only" api

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install this package via composer using this command:

```
$ composer require manford/weatherman
```

The `Manford\Weatherman\WeathermanServiceProvider` is auto-discovered and registered by default.

If you want to register it yourself, add the ServiceProvider in config/app.php:

```
'providers' => [
    /*
     * Package Service Providers...
     */
    Manford\Weatherman\WeathermanServiceProvider::class,
]
```

The `Weather` facade is also auto-discovered.

If you want to add it manually, add the Facade in config/app.php:

```
'aliases' => [
    ...
    'Weather' => Manford\Weatherman\Facades\Weatherman::class,
]
```

You can publish the config file with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Manford\Weatherman\WeathermanServiceProvider"
```

This is the contents of the published config file located in `config/weatherman.php`.

```
return [
    'base_url' => env('OPEN_WEATHER_URL'),

    'app_id' => env('OPEN_WEATHER_ID')
];
```

Add and update your .env file with these.

Visit [OpenWeather](https://home.openweathermap.org/api_keys) to get your ID.

```
OPEN_WEATHER_URL=https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather
OPEN_WEATHER_ID=

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

In your controller:

```
namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Manford\Weatherman\Facades\Weatherman as Weather;

class PageController extends Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
    	$city = Weather::city('accra');

    	return view('welcome', compact('city'));
    }
}
```

Include this view where you need it:

```

    {{ $city->name }} Weather Status

        {{ date("l g:i a", time()) }}
        {{ date("jS F, Y", time()) }}
        {{ ucwords($city->weather[0]->description) }}

         main->temp_max; ?>°C

            {{ $city->main->temp_min }}°C

        Humidity: {{ $city->main->humidity }} %
        Wind: {{ $city->wind->speed }} km/h

```
