What is this? This is a wrapper for getting weather information from Yahoo Weather API, for android.
-
How do I use it? (Changed from 2013/03/23)
First, implement YahooWeatherInfoListener in your Activity. Overwrite the callback function "gotWeatherInfo", which will be called after querying from Yahoo weather API.
@Override
public void gotWeatherInfo(WeatherInfo weatherInfo) {
if(weatherInfo != null) {
// Add your code here
}
}
Second, use the following code to get weather information.
YahooWeatherUtils yahooWeatherUtils = YahooWeatherUtils.getInstance();
yahooWeatherUtils.queryYahooWeather(getApplicationContext(), "Name of City or Area", this);
Replace "Name of City or Area" to what you want.
- What kind of weather information can I get? You can get current condition of weather, humidity, wind, etc. And some forecast information for next two days.
