This is a Weather Information System that give weather information about few famous cities of India.

Pre-requisites:

1. Golang 1.12

2. GORM go get -u github.com/jinzhu/gorm

3. API token for http://api.openweathermap.org

Steps to run:

1. Signup on http://api.openweathermap.org, get the API token and set the environment variable APIKEY

export APIKEY=<API-TOKEN> 2. Simply run run.sh script. After that system is ready to handle requests.

Description:

1. This application runs as a local http sever at 8080 port and continously gathers data in the background from http://api.openweathermap.org in goroutines.

2. It saves data in mysql container running on the localhost and the container port 3306 is mapped to port 3306of localhost.

3. Weather information for a particular city can be queried in 3 ways

   a. with city name

   b. with latitute and longitude

   c. with zip-code

   So the applicatin exposes 3 endpoints for the user:

   a. http://localhost:8080/weather/?city=`cityname`

   b. http://localhost:8080/weather/?lat=`latitude`&lon=`longitude`

   c. http://localhost:8080/weather/?zip=`zip-code`

Note: There is a .http file in this project to make sample API calls to sever
