Weather service

[Baitinq]

It would be really cool if there was a weather service in homer. I might get around implementing it one of these days but if anyone else has one already and is willing to share it would be extremely cool!

I was also looking for this and since there wasn't anything yet I went on to create something myself. See the image below. Is this something you were looking for also?

I used the OpenWeatherMap API and added a few configuration options (like api key, location, units). The image is retrieved from OWM based on the image code (per documentation). The resulting yml is:

Hello!

Nice idea!
@dickwolff would you be open to share your implementation by submitting a PR to add the custom service to the collection?

[dickwolff]

Yeah sure! I'll open a PR and link this issue.

I've created an initial PR. Need to finish up some checks and I have one question about the URL which I would like your opinion on @bastienwirtz

Edit: I took the liberty to make the URL fixed myself. Since this doesn't change and it doesn't need to, there was no reason to make it configurable.

@dickwolff this is exactly what i was looking for. Thanks for your work
