In my quest to make my systems more useful I created a command line weather script. There are similar programs made already like weathercli, weather-util. But the first didn’t work at all. The second only supports USA states/cities. Not quite useful in my situation where I want weather conditions of The Hague in The Netherlands.
The result is a simple bash script that fetches xml data from Google Weather API using curl. This data is then parsed using xmlscarlet and awk.
