# Weather Web-Scraper
> **CAUTION**
> The following utility is in EARLY developement. Many promises made in this
> readme might not actually be true. Hopefully one day we'll be out of beta ~and
> be releasing on time~
An utility to scrape italian weather websites to collect and compare weather
information
## Usage
> **WARNING**
> The script is configured to run on Nix, and because of this is more
> complicated than it needs to be. You can remove unnecessary stuff if you're
> not running this on nix
The scraper collects data and arranges in the following scheme
```json
{
"today": {
"[0..23]": {
"temp": {
"type": "number",
"unitOfMeasurement": "degrees",
"description": "expected temperature at the given hour"
},
"prec": {
"type": "number",
"unitOfMeasurement": "mm",
"description": "expected precipitation at the given hour"
},
"code": {
"type": "string",
"description": "weather code (sunny / cloudy / ...)"
}
}
},
"tomorrow": {
"[0..23]": {
"temp": {
"type": "number",
"unitOfMeasurement": "degrees",
"description": "expected temperature at the given hour"
},
"prec": {
"type": "number",
"unitOfMeasurement": "mm",
"description": "expected precipitation at the given hour"
},
"code": {
"type": "string",
"description": "weather code (sunny / cloudy / ...)"
}
}
},
"dayAfterTomorrow": {
"[0..23]": {
"temp": {
"type": "number",
"unitOfMeasurement": "degrees",
"description": "expected temperature at the given hour"
},
"prec": {
"type": "number",
"unitOfMeasurement": "mm",
"description": "expected precipitation at the given hour"
},
"code": {
"type": "string",
"description": "weather code (sunny / cloudy / ...)"
}
}
},
"week": {
"[0..6]": {
"minTemp": {
"type": "number",
"unitOfMeasurement": "degrees",
"description": "minimum expected temperature for the day"
},
"maxTemp": {
"type": "number",
"unitOfMeasurement": "degrees",
"description": "maximum expected temperature for the day"
},
"totPrec": {
"type": "number",
"unitOfMeasurement": "mm",
"description": "total expected precipitation for the day"
},
"code": {
"type": "string",
"description": "weather code (sunny / cloudy / ...)"
}
}
}
}
```
The keys for the `week` entry are intended as an offset from today. That is, the
object at `0` will be the results for today, the object at `1` will be the
results for tomorrow, and the object at `6` will be the results for 6 days from
now
