Command line weather app
Project description
Weather Command
A command line weather app
NOTE: OpenWeather is now requiring a credit card to use the service even if you stay under the paid amount of calls. I am not interesting in providing my credit card so instead I am archiving the project.
Installation
Installation with pipx is recommended.
pipx install weather-command
Alternatively Weather Command can be installed with pip.
pip install weather-command
Usage
First an API key is needed from OpenWeather, A free account is all that
is needed. Once you have your API key create an environment variable named OPEN_WEATHER_API_KEY
that
constains your API key.
export OPEN_WEATHER_API_KEY=your-api-key
Each time the shell is restarted this variable will be cleared. To avoid this it can be added to your
profile. For example if your shell is zsh the API key can be added to the ~/.zshenv
file. Doing this
will prevent the need to re-add the key each time the shell is started.
To get the weather for a city:
weather city seattle
Once installed you can also add aliases to your shell to make it quick to get a forecast. For example
if your shell is zsh you can add something like the following to your ~/.zshrc
file:
alias we="weather zip 98109 -i --am-pm"
alias wed="weather zip 98109 -i --am-pm -f daily"
alias weh="weather zip 98109 -i --am-pm -f hourly"
After adding this to the ~/.zshrc
you will need to restart your terminal. After that typing we
will get the current forecast, wed
will get the daily forecast and weh
will get the hourly forecast.
Examples
- Current Weather
- Current Weather Temp Only

- Daily Weather Temp Only
- Hourly Weather
- Hourly Weather Temp Only
