## Node Js Weather App
[](https://badge.fury.io/js/nodejs-weather-app)  [](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=Wow:&url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fnahidulhasan%2Fnodejs-weather-app)
Node Js Weather App is a simple module for obtaining weather information.
### Use as a CLI Tool
#### Prerequisite
You need to have [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/en/) installed in your machine.
#### Add to CLI
* Clone the repository.
* Go to the repository folder and run the following command in your terminal:
```
npm link
```
#### Usage
Now you can just run the following in terminal:
```
weather
```
By default you'll get current weather of **_Dhaka_** City.
If you want to get weather of a different city, run:
```
weather -c CITY_NAME
```
### Use as a Library
#### Installation
```
npm install nodejs-weather-app
```
#### Usage
This library exposes two methods:
* `getWeather`, which will return a Promise
* `printWeather`, which will show the output as a readable message
For example, you can use the library like this:
```js
var nodejsWeatherApp = require('nodejs-weather-app');
nodejsWeatherApp.getWeather().then(val => {
nodejsWeatherApp.printWeather(val);
});
```
If you don't specify any city and run the code, you will get Dhaka city temperature.
Output :
```
Current Temperature in Dhaka is 24.6°C
```
If you want to get specific city temperature, then pass the city name as a parameter of `getWeather` method:
```js
var nodejsWeatherApp = require('nodejs-weather-app');
nodejsWeatherApp.getWeather('New York').then(val => {
nodejsWeatherApp.printWeather(val);
});
```
Output :
```
Current Temperature in New York is 7.82°C
```
Basically, when the `getWeather` Promise will be resolved it will give a detailed **_weather_** object. So, you can easily modify it if necessary.
Like following:
```js
var nodejsWeatherApp = require('nodejs-weather-app');
nodejsWeatherApp.getWeather().then(val => {
printWeather(val);
});
function printWeather(weather) {
let message = `Temperature in ${weather.name} is ${weather.main.temp}°C`;
console.log(message);
}
```
If you want to see the full **_weather_** object, try this:
```js
function printWeather(weather) {
console.log(weather);
}
```
Output :
```
