multiweatherapi 0.0.8

Python bindings to multiple weather station vendor APIs

Multi Weather API

Consistent Python bindings for select commercial weather station APIs, such as Zentra Cloud REST API v3, created for MSU EnviroWeather Project.

Background

This is inspired by python bindings for v1 of the Zentra API from the Montana Climate office : MSU Agricultural Weather Office

The EnviroWeather system from the MSU Agricultural Weather Office will interface with weather stations (select list of vendors) deployed and owned privately. Since each vendor has a differrent REST/Web API to access station's weather data, this package aims to provide a consistent interface to all of those stations in order to make it easy for incoporating them into a data pipeline.

Installation

The Multi-Weather API is currently available on PyPI. Install using pip:

pip install multiweatherapi

Usage

>>> from multiweatherapi import multiweatherapi
>>> param = {'sn': 'STATION_ID',
...          'apikey': 'API_KEY',
...          'apisec': 'API_SECRET'}
>>> resp = multiweatherapi.get_reading('davis', **param)
>>> resp.resp_raw # raw JSON response of the reading
>>> resp.resp_parsed # parsed JSON response into list of dict for EnviroWeather project
