JSPM – weather-forecaster@1.0.2

Package Exports

weather-forecaster

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (weather-forecaster) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Usage

Since this package's structure is asynchronous you have to use "async-await" or ".then()" structures when using the module.

Example usages with these structures are given below.

Getting all the data with IIFE:

const weather_forecast = require("weather-forecaster");


(async () => {

    const data = await weather_forecast("san francisco");

    // your code..

    console.log(data);

})();

Getting all the data with .then():

const weather_forecast = require("weather-forecaster");


weather_forecast("istanbul").then(data => {

    // your code..

    console.log(data);

});

Getting all the data with async-await:

const weather_forecast = require("weather-forecaster");


async function myWeatherData(query) {

    const data = await weather_forecast(query);

    // your code..

    console.log(data);

};

myWeatherData("new york");

Destructuring & getting specific data:

const weather_forecast = require("weather-forecaster");


async function myWeatherData(query) {

    const data = await weather_forecast(query);

    /*
    this destructuring assignment will allow us to use 
    these parts of the data without using the data.<name> format
    */
    const { weather_state, temp_celcius } = data;

    // in this case the expected outputs will be the same

    //                                  example outputs:
    console.log(weather_state);      // Light Cloud
    console.log(data.weather_state); // Light Cloud


    /*
    we can do that destructuring assignment once again with
    the parts that we already destructured
    */
    const { lowest, highest, current } = temp_celcius;

    const first_array = [
        lowest,
        highest,
        current
    ];

    const second_array = [
        temp_celcius.lowest,
        temp_celcius.highest,
        temp_celcius.current
    ];

    const third_array = [
        data.temp_celcius.lowest,
        data.temp_celcius.highest,
        data.temp_celcius.current
    ];

    // in this case the expected outputs will be the same

    //                            example outputs:
    console.log(first_array);  // [ 15.2, 23.2, 23.5 ]
    console.log(second_array); // [ 15.2, 23.2, 23.5 ]
    console.log(third_array);  // [ 15.2, 23.2, 23.5 ]

};

myWeatherData("new york");
