Terminal weather report tool that displays current and near-future conditions with visual formatting
tempy is a terminal-based weather reporting tool that displays current and near-future weather conditions with formatted visual output. It accepts location queries as command-line arguments (e.g., tempy nyc for New York City) and supports both imperial and metric unit systems via the -u or --units flags.
The tool operates without requiring users to obtain their own API key by default, routing requests through the developer's proxy server to weatherapi.com. For users preferring direct API access, tempy supports custom API key configuration through a configuration file located at $HOME/.config/tempyrc.
Configuration options include setting default location, units, and API key preferences in the tempyrc file, allowing the tool to run with predefined parameters. The tool creates this configuration file automatically on first run and supports persistent settings for regular use.
