Windy API Node Library

This library helps developers use the Windyty API point forecast https://api.windy.com/point-forecast

Installation

Inside your project directory run

npm install @tsamantanis/node-windy-api

Usage

Visit Windy Point Forecast API to obtain your API key. Note that The trial API version is for development purposes only. The data for trial version API keys is from random coordinates.

Once you've obtained your API key go ahead and add it to your .env file like this

WINDY_API_KEY="insert_api_key_here"

You can take a look at the .env.example file for reference

Next, import the library in your file by running

const WindyAPI = require('@tsamantanis/node-windy-api')

Here's a simple example that utilizes the standard function

const testStandard = async function () {
    const res = await WindyAPI.standard(49.809, 16.787, "YOUR_API_KEY")
    // res contains json object
}

If you wish to receive the resulting object in an easier to read and ready to present format you can also use the beautify method as follows

const testStandardWithBeautify = async function () {
    const res = await WindyAPI.standard(49.809, 16.787, "YOUR_API_KEY")    
    const data = await WindyAPI.beautify(res, 'E M f, Y', 'c', 'kts')
    // data contains json object with beautified values
}

See the @tsamantanis/date-lib documentation for more information about formatting dates
