Glimmer Weather

A small Glimmer application to fetch your current location and display the daily summary.

Installation

• git clone git@github.com:willrax/glimmer-weather.git
• cd weather
• yarn
• ember serve

Fetching the Report

This app assumes that you’re using the Darksky API. You’ll also need to proxy these requets due to CORS. Here’s a small Node app that can do it.j

var express = require('express');
var request = require('request');
var cors = require('cors');
var app = express();
var apiServerHost = 'https://api.darksky.net/forecast/<YOUR_API_TOKEN>';
app.use(cors());
app.use('/', function(req, res) {
  var url = apiServerHost + req.url;
  req.pipe(request(url)).pipe(res);
});
app.listen(process.env.PORT || 4000);

You’ll just need to install express, request and cors to get it working. Then fill in your API_TOKEN.
