/WeatherDisplay

A display for your current weather, forecast, time, and commute

Primary LanguageJava

This project is a display showing current weather and forecast for your location, the current time, and the current commute time to from/to any given destination. I currently have it running on a 16" screen. I'm not sure how it will scale to others. Weather is provided by OpenWeatherMap; commute is provided by google; and background image is provided by Bing. Screenshots/pictures can be found here --> http://imgur.com/a/XdPYu .

To use:

  1. Clone this repo into the desired directory

  2. Create a weatherdisplay.properties file under the WeatherDisplay/Executable/src/main/resources/ directory

  3. Enter properties as follows, each on their own line, with no spaces:

start=(commute-start-coordinates)

end=(commute-end-coordinates)

key=(google-maps-key)

weatherKey=(open-weather-map-key)

cityID=(open-weather-map-city-ID)

  1. Save the file

  2. In the WeatherDisplay directory, run "mvn clean install"

  3. In the WeatherDisplay/Executable directory, run "mvn spring-boot:run" and the application will launch
