- Fork this repository, clone to your local machine then change into the directory:
$ git clone git@github.com:davmcgregor/thermostat-js.git
$ cd thermostat-js
- Load dependencies with bundle:
$ gem install bundle
$ bundle
- Run jasmine for tests and coverage
$ open SpecRunner.html
- Run the app on a local server and use on the broswer: http://localhost:9292
$ rackup- Thermostat starts at 20 degrees
- You can increase the temperature with an up function
- You can decrease the temperature with a down function
- The minimum temperature is 10 degrees
- If power saving mode is on, the maximum temperature is 25 degrees
- If power saving mode is off, the maximum temperature is 32 degrees
- Power saving mode is on by default
- You can reset the temperature to 20 with a reset function
- You can ask about the thermostat's current energy usage: < 18 is low-usage, < 25 is medium-usage, anything else is high-usage.
- Use a jQuery AJAX call to get the weather information for London from a weather API. Display the weather information to the user.
- Add further functionality so that the user can select their current city and the weather provided is for the selected city.
