I mentioned yesterday getting the current temperature through a different weather service –
I have a long-ish script that pulls from the OpenWeatherMap API (the length of the script
is determined by a couple case
statements, not by any clever coding) –
as to the choice of OpenWeatherMap, that was determined not by the accuracy of their reporting
but that they provided an XML
feed (many more options are available that only
provide a JSON
feed) – and I was looking for an XML
feed because,
while setting up my system, I already had xmllint
pre-installed (pulled in by
some other package) whereas if I wanted to handle JSON
, I would have to install
jq
separately – basically, just kicking the can down the road
