NAME
WWW::Wunderground::API - Use Weather Underground's XML interface
VERSION
Version 0.01
SYNOPSIS
Connects to the Weather Underground XML weather conditions URL and parses the data into something usable. The entire response is available in Hash::AsObject form, so any data that comes from the server is accessible. Print a Data::Dumper of ->data to see all of the tasty data bits.
use WWW::Wunderground::API;
#location
my $wun = new WWW::Wunderground::API('Fairfax, VA');
#or zipcode
my $wun = new WWW::Wunderground::API(22030);
#or airport identifier
my $wun = new WWW::Wunderground::API('KIAD');
print 'The temperature is: '.$wun->data->temp_f;
print 'XML source:'.$wun->xml;
update()
Refetch data from the server. This is called automatically every time location is set, but you may want to put it in a timer.
location()
Change the location. For example:
my $wun = new WWW::Wunderground::API(22030);
my $ffx_temp = $wun->data->temp_f;
$wun->location('KJFK');
my $ny_temp = $wun->data->temp_f;
$wun->location('San Diego, CA');
my $socal_temp = $wun->data->temp_f;
