clarkf / tides.el

Elisp interface to the NOAA tidal forecast API

tides.el is intended to provide elisp mechanisms for accessing NOAA tidal forecast data.

Status

It is currently in a alpha state and ready for tinkering. Expect bugs and rough edges.

Usage

Predictions can be viewed interactively via tides-predict, which will present today’s tidal forecast in roughly columnar format.

tides-predict can also be called from elisp with a callback, for example:

(tides-predict (lambda (predictions)
                 (message "I have received %d predictions."
                          (length predictions))))

Please see the docstring of tides-predict for details on the format of the predictions.
