# NAME

Weather::Meteo - Interface to [https://open-meteo.com](https://open-meteo.com) for historical weather data

# VERSION

Version 0.09

# SYNOPSIS

use Weather::Meteo;

my $meteo = Weather::Meteo->new();
my $weather = $meteo->weather({ latitude => 0.1, longitude => 0.2, date => '2022-12-25' });

# DESCRIPTION

Weather::Meteo provides an interface to open-meteo.com
for historical weather data from 1940.

# METHODS

## new

my $meteo = Weather::Meteo->new();
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();
$ua->env_proxy(1);
$meteo = Weather::Meteo->new(ua => $ua);

my $weather = $meteo->weather({ latitude => 51.34, longitude => 1.42, date => '2022-12-25' });
my @snowfall = @{$weather->{'hourly'}->{'snowfall'}};

print 'Number of cms of snow: ', $snowfall[1], "\n";

## weather

use Geo::Location::Point;

The date argument can be an ISO-8601 formatted date,
or an object that understands the strftime method.

my $ramsgate = Geo::Location::Point->new({ latitude => 51.34, longitude => 1.42 });
# Print snowfall at 1AM on Christmas morning in Ramsgate
$weather = $meteo->weather($ramsgate, '2022-12-25');
@snowfall = @{$weather->{'hourly'}->{'snowfall'}};

print 'Number of cms of snow: ', $snowfall[1], "\n";

use DateTime;
my $dt = DateTime->new(year => 2024, month => 2, day => 1);
$weather = $meteo->weather({ location => $ramsgate, date => $dt });

Takes an optional argument, tz, which defaults to 'Europe/London'.
For that to work set TIMEZONEDB\_KEY to be your API key from [https://timezonedb.com](https://timezonedb.com).

## ua

Accessor method to get and set UserAgent object used internally. You
can call _env\_proxy_ for example, to get the proxy information from
environment variables:

$meteo->ua()->env_proxy(1);

You can also set your own User-Agent object:

use LWP::UserAgent::Throttled;

my $ua = LWP::UserAgent::Throttled->new();
$ua->throttle('open-meteo.com' => 1);
$meteo->ua($ua);
