Welcome to my weather web app! This project showcases my skills in web development using Node.js and API integration. With this app, users can easily obtain real-time weather information for any location worldwide.
- Real-time weather information: Users can get the current weather conditions for any location by searching for it.
- International support: Users can search for weather information for any location worldwide, not just limited to a specific country or region.
- Node.js
- Express.js
- HTML
- CSS
- JavaScript
- API integration (WeatherStack API & PositionStack API)
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/harshpatel-r/Weather_App.git - Change to the project directory:
cd Weather_App - Install the dependencies:
npm install
- Create a
config/dev.envfile in the root directory of your project. - Inside the
dev.envfile, specify the necessary environment variables required for the app. For example:
FORCAST_URL=http://api.weatherstack.com/current?access_key={your_weatherstack_api_key}&query=
GEOCODE_URL=http://api.positionstack.com/v1/forward?access_key={your_positionstack_api_key}&query=Replace your_weatherstack_api_key with your actual API key for the WeatherStack API and your_positionstack_api_key with your actual API key for the PositionStack API.
- Start the application:
npm run dev - Open your web browser and visit
http://localhost:3000to access the app.
Support for running the app with Docker is currently under development. Stay tuned for updates on Docker usage instructions! We are excited to bring you the ability to run the app in a containerized environment for easier deployment and management.
To retrieve weather data, this project utilizes the WeatherStack API. You will need to sign up for an API key at https://weatherstack.com/ and replace your_weatherstack_api_key in the dev.env file with your actual API key.
To retrieve location data, this project utilizes the PositionStack API. You will need to sign up for an API key at https://positionstack.com/ and replace your_positionstack_api_key in the dev.env file with your actual API key.
