PHP 5 wrapper for Yahoo! weather.

Weather

PHP 5 wrapper for Yahoo! weather. Caches with JSON or normal PHP serialization.

How to use

include('../lib/weather.php');

$weather = new Weather();

echo '<pre>';
print_r($weather->get('SFXX0010'));
echo '</pre>';

Natural output is metric. The following code enforces imperial:

$weather = new Weather(false);

Cache is enabled by default, with an expiry of 60 minutes. You can alter this behaviour with the following code:

$weather = new Weather(true, 0);

The complete parameter list of the Weather class constructor is:

new Weather(bool $metric, [int $cache_minutes, [string $cache_dir, [int $cache_format]]);
