A simple temperature monitor that checks the temperature outside:
$ python tempmonitor.py
22.4°C
The program also stores the latest temperature to a file, allowing the comparison of the current temperature to the previous temperature. This is useful if the script is tasked to run every X minutes with cron or Task Scheduler, as it will optionally let you know when the temperature outside drops below a certain boundary.
All supported command line arguments:
place(positional): Location where to check the temperature from. Default:helsinki--boundary: Dropping below this temperature will show a messagebox. Default:None--result-file: Path to a file to store the previous temperature into. Default:%APPDATA%\\tempmonitor.txt
