Weather API Project

For Grade 12 Computer Science

This is a weather API interface written in C# and XAML. It uses the Avalonia platform for compatibility across operating systems, and uses ipinfo.io as well as Open-Meteo as the API's it depends on. It also uses ScottPlot in order to display data in a visual format.

Note for teacher: Much of the project is just a template. See MainWindow.axaml.cs and MainWindow.axaml for the stuff I coded personally.

Compatibility

Works on Windows and Linux. Developed specifically on/for Fedora Linux.

Dependencies

.NET 8.0
Earlier .NET versions work too, but WeatherAPIProj.csproj needs to be updated to target earlier .NET versions.

Installation

Linux

./build_linux.sh
cd ./build
dotnet WeatherAPIProj.dll

Windows

# This can all be done in File Explorer too
./build_win.bat
cd ./build
./WeatherAPIProj.exe

Note: This targets .NET 8.0 by default. You may need to edit WeatherAPIProj.csproj to target a different version of .NET depending on what works for you and your environment.
