Laravel OpenWeather

A Laravel SDK for OpenWeather API

Installation

Install the package via composer:

composer require solgenpower/laravel-openweather

If you're interested in modifying the config file, then publish it using the following command:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Solgenpower\LaravelOpenweather\OpenWeatherServiceProvider"

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [

    /**
     * API Key for Open Weather
     */
    'api-key' => env('OPENWEATHER_API_KEY', ''),

    /**
     * Endpoint for the Current Weather
     */
    'current-endpoint' => env('OPENWEATHER_CURRENT_ENDPOINT', 'https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/'),

    /**
     * Endpoint for the Weather Condition icons
     */
    'icon-endpoint' => env('OPENWEATHER_ICON_ENDPOINT', 'https://openweathermap.org/img/wn/'),

    /**

     */
    'icon-map' => [

];

Usage

You can get weather information by providing coordinates

$whiteHouseWeather = OpenWeather::coordinates("38.897957", "-77.036560");
echo $whiteHouseWeather->humidity; //64

or by zip code

$californiaWeather = OpenWeather::zip('90210', 'US');
echo $californiaWeather->windDirection; //N

or by city name

$pheonixWeather = OpenWeather::city('Tucson', 'AZ', 'US');
echo $pheonixWeather->feelsLike; //281.55

All these methods will return a Weather DTO that looks like this:

class Weather
{
    public function __construct(
        public readonly float $latitude,

        public readonly float $longitude,

        public readonly ?string $countryCode,

        public readonly string $condition,

        public readonly string $description,

        public readonly string $icon,

        public readonly float $temperature,

        public readonly ?float $feelsLike,

        public readonly ?int $pressure,

        public readonly ?int $humidity,

        public readonly ?float $windSpeed,

        public readonly ?string $windDirection,

        public readonly ?int $cloudiness,

        public readonly ?int $visibility,

        /**
         * Seconds difference from UTC
         * To use with Carbon's timezone method, divide by 3600
         */
        public readonly int $timezone,

        public readonly Carbon $sunrise,

        public readonly Carbon $sunset,

        public readonly Carbon $calculatedAt
    ) {
    }
}
