wttr.in VS api

#!/bin/bash # Get weather information for a specified location LOCATION="London" curl "http://wttr.in/$LOCATION?format=3"

We’re going to use a free weather API, wttr.in, which gives us weather info just by calling a URL.

locals { url = format("https://wttr.in/%v?%v&format=%v&lang=%v&u=%v", urlencode(var.location), urlencode(var.options), urlencode(var.format), urlencode(var.lang), urlencode(var.units), ) } data "http" "weather" { url = local.url request_headers = { User-Agent = "curl" } } # Now write this to a file (as an example of a resource) resource "local_file" "cache" { filename = "cache.${var.stage}.txt" content = data.http.weather.response_body }

wttr.in is unfortunately not accurate in many cities in the world, check their github issues

The difference with weafetch is that it has its own config file which can just be configured and not touched anymore. When using wttr.in with curl, any custom changes you want to get from the output will need to be typed in everytime.

What about https://wttr.in/ ?
