About

Java App that uses the Open Weather API to display weather information based on the zip code provided.

Currently set up with Maven for dependency management.

Folder Structure

The workspace contains two folders by default, where:

• src: the folder to maintain sources
• lib: the folder to maintain dependencies

Meanwhile, the compiled output files will be generated in the bin folder by default.

If you want to customize the folder structure, open .vscode/settings.json and update the related settings there.

Dependency Management

The JAVA PROJECTS view allows you to manage your dependencies. More details can be found here.

How to Run

git clone https://github.com/bkp5190/WeatherAppJava.git

mvn clean install

source set-env.sh

• Fill in API Key for Open Weather API.
• Fill in desired Zip Code to display weather.

java -cp target/my-weather-app-1.0.0.jar:lib/* github.bkp5190.WeatherApp

Setup

Currently, the application is set up with GitHub Actions to build and deploy. Given the nature of the application being UI focused, it will run in a headless mode in the pipeline to account.

Work To Do

Set up functionality to pass in zip code for custom data.
