About this package
Reusable Slim components for fetching weather via OpenWeather One Call API 3.0
Using the OpenWeatherClient Library
To integrate weather data into your application using the ohrionmartin/weather
package, follow these steps:
1. Add the Repository and Dependency
Update your composer.json
file to include the custom repository and require the ohrionmartin/weather
package:
"repositories": [
{
"type": "vcs",
"url": "https://git.nampharm.com.na/ohrionmartin/weather"
}
],
"require": {
"ohrionmartin/weather": "dev-master"
}
Then run:
composer update
2. Configure the API Key
Ensure you have an API key from OpenWeatherMap. Add it to your .env
file:
OPENWEATHER_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
3. Add Weather Route
In your application (e.g., in routes.php
or equivalent), add the following route to handle weather requests:
use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Ohrionmartin\Weather\Service\OpenWeatherClient;
$router->get('/weather', function (Request $request) {
$apiKey = env('OPENWEATHER_API_KEY');
if (!$apiKey) {
return response()->json(['error' => 'OPENWEATHER_API_KEY is not configured'], 500);
}
$client = new Client();
$ow = new OpenWeatherClient($client, $apiKey);
$options = [];
if ($request->has('units')) {
$options['units'] = $request->get('units'); // 'standard'|'metric'|'imperial'
}
if ($request->has('lang')) {
$options['lang'] = $request->get('lang');
}
if ($request->has('exclude')) {
$options['exclude'] = $request->get('exclude'); // comma-separated segments
}
try {
if ($request->has('city')) {
$data = $ow->oneCallByCity((string) $request->get('city'), $options);
} else {
if (!$request->has('lat') || !$request->has('lon')) {
return response()->json(['error' => 'Provide either ?city=Name or ?lat=..&lon=..'], 400);
}
$lat = (float) $request->get('lat');
$lon = (float) $request->get('lon');
$data = $ow->oneCall($lat, $lon, $options);
}
return response()->json($data);
} catch (\RuntimeException $e) {
return response()->json(['error' => $e->getMessage()], 502);
}
});
4. Usage Examples
You can access the weather endpoint with the following query parameters:
- By city name:
http://localhost:8080/weather?city=London
- By coordinates:
http://localhost:8080/weather?lat=51.5074&lon=-0.1278
- With optional parameters:
units
:standard
,metric
, orimperial
(e.g.,?units=metric
)lang
: Language code for response (e.g.,?lang=fr
)exclude
: Comma-separated segments to exclude (e.g.,?exclude=minutely,hourly
)
Example request:
curl "http://localhost:8080/weather?city=London&units=metric&lang=fr"
This will return weather data in JSON format for London in metric units and French language.
