Waybar Weather Display Module

Installation

With Pre-Requisites already installed

cargo install waybar_weather_display

Alternatively you can just run

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichaelPetersen22/waybar_modules/main/weather_install.sh -sSf | sh

If you want to also install the font used with the weather icons, run the below script

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichaelPetersen22/waybar_modules/main/weather_install.sh| bash -s -- yes

Pre-Requisites

cargo

curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh

otf-font-awesome

sudo pacman -S otf-font-awesome

Usage

The command is not intended to be used on it's own as it prints back a json for waybar to read and convert into the module.

Example usage in waybar config is included below ``` "custom/weather": {

   "interval": 1800,

   "return-type": "json",

   "exec": "waybar_weather_display --latitude 51.5085 --longitude -0.1257",

   "escape": true
}

``` Pay special attention to the "exec" field as that is where the module is called.

For details on how to use the command and the default values of the command, run waybar_weather_display --help

Planned

I plan on adding support for configuration files wherein you can specify all of the command line params (lat, long) as well as customize what icons are used, text for the weather conditions and measurement type (i.e. celsius or fahrenheight). I may also add in support for being able to ask for extra information from the API (i.e. the ability to get temperature, humidity, rain amount) however this may be quite ambitious as it will require the ability to build out URL params for the API request.
