README

This bundle allows you to easily get the weather for a city or a location, via the OpenWeatherMap service.

Requirements

• Symfony 5.* to 7.*
• API Key (APPID) from OpenWeatherMap²
• Dependencies: Guzzle

²Please note that the free version of OpenWeatherMap restricts the number of calls per month. Please see documentation). For a large number of calls, I recommend to setting up a cache (not currently managed in this package).

Installation

1. To install this bundle, run the following Composer command :

composer require pyrrah/openweathermap-bundle

1. Check configuration file is correctly installed, and edit the default values with yours (Official API docs) :

  # config/packages/pyrrah_openweathermap.yaml
  pyrrah_open_weather_map:
      api_key: your_api_key
      api_url: https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/
      units: metric
      language: en

Routing (optional)

If you don't want to expose the OpenWeatherMap API via your application, you can skip this section.

Configuration

PyrrahOpenWeatherMapBundle:
    resource:		"@PyrrahOpenWeatherMapBundle/Controller/"
    type:		annotation
    prefix:		/openweathermap/api

This exposes the OpenWeatherMap API via /openweathermap/api. This means that instead of sending a request to http://api.openweathermap.org/ you can now send an unsigned request to /openweathermap/api/*. Make sure you secure this area if you don't want others to be able to post on your behalf.

Usage

After installation and configuration, the service can be directly referenced from within your controllers.

<?php

use Pyrrah\OpenWeatherMapBundle\Services\Client;

/** @var Client $client */
$client = $this->get('pyrrah.openweathermap.client');

// Retrieve the current weather for Paris, FR
$weather = $client->getWeather('Paris,fr');

// Or retrieve the weather using the generic query method
$response = $client->query('weather', array('q' => 'Paris,fr'));
$weather = json_decode($response->getContent());
