I made this plugin because quite a few Weather plugins didn't work well and WunderWeather, which uses this API, is on their older XML api that they don't have documented anymore and, one would assume, will be deprecated at some point.
You will need a working Limnoria bot on Python 2.7/3.4 for this to work.
Go into your Limnoria plugin dir, usually ~/supybot/plugins and run:
git clone https://github.com/GLolol/Supybot-Weather
To install additional requirements, run:
pip install -r requirements.txt
or if you don't have or don't want to use root,
pip install -r requirements.txt --user
Next, load the plugin:
/msg bot load Weather
Fetch an API key for Wunderground by signing up (free). Once getting this key, you will need to set it on your bot before things will work. Reload once you perform this operation to start using it.
/msg bot config plugins.Weather.apiKey <APIKEY>
Now, reload the bot and you should be good to go:
/msg bot reload Weather
Optional: There are some config variables that can be set for the bot. They mainly control output stuff.
/msg bot config search Weather
<spline> @wunderground 10002
<myybot> New York, NY :: Rain :: 52F | Visibility: 4.0mi | Saturday: Rain. High around 55F. ...
There are a ton of options to configure. You can find these via:
/msg bot config search Weather
Many of these are also available via --help when calling the wunderground command.
Users can also have their location remembered by the plugin's internal database so that they will not have to continually type in their location. NOTE: It uses their nick only, so if they are on a different nick, even with an identical hostmask, it will not match.
You can use zipcodes (10002), cities (New York, NY), etc. Weather Underground is pretty intelligent here.
<spline> @setweather 10002
<myybot> I have changed spline's weather ID to 10002
This now allows a user to type in the weather command w/o any arguments:
<spline> @wunderground
<myybot> Manchester, NH :: Rain :: 45F | Visibility: 10.0mi | Saturday: Occasional light rain. High 56F. ...
Users can also have the bot remember their preferred options, such as using Metric when displaying weather:
<spline> @setuser metric False
<myybot> I have changed spline's metric setting to 0
