Weather Microservice
====================
This is simple microservice that provides information about weather.
Author: Piotr Pelczar
Weather microservice starts web server and provide weather conditions data as JSON API for selected location using Wunderground API. Results are cached into Redis key-value database.
Futhermore there is a guard level that
Data is fetched from abstraction layer called Repository, and there are 3 implementations of Weather Respository:
* `Wunderground` - base repository fetching data directly from Wunderground API.
* `WundergroundApiLimitGuard` - repository proxy prevents calling API more times than is allowed by limits.
* `Cached` - each request is cached locally.
The app is based on Flask REST frmework utilizing Dependency Injection known from Spring (Spring Python), named instances of classes are declared in `app-context.yml`.
Used libraries:
* Flask
* Flask REST
* spring-python for Dependency Injection
* PyYAML
* Redis
