# Weather Forecast CLI
This is a simple command-line interface (CLI) application that fetches weather forecast data from the OpenWeatherMap API based on the provided city and country code.
## Prerequisites
- [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install): Make sure you have Rust installed on your system.
## Installation
Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/tusharpamnani/Weather-Forecast.git
cd Weather-Forecast
```
Build the project:
```bash
cargo build --release
```
## Usage
1. **Add your API key:** Open the `src/main.rs` file and add your OpenWeatherMap API key to the following line (line 89):
```rust
"https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q={},{}&appid={YOUR_API_KEY}&units=metric",
```
2. **Run the CLI:**
```bash
cargo run
```
Replace `` with the name of the city and `` with the country code (e.g., "ind" for India).
Example:
```bash
cargo run nagpur ind
```
## Output
The CLI will display information about the provided city's weather forecast, including temperature, description, humidity, wind speed and direction, and sunrise/sunset times.
