save some information from a xml or json to a txt file

@gismo2006 I think I got the problem. The german description can contain letters like äöü etc. i will fix that later when i’m at home.

Now it should work

#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import codecs
import json
import subprocess

APP_ID = ''
FILE_PATH = 'test.txt'

url = 'http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?id=2934486&lang=de&units=metric&mode=json&appid=' + APP_ID
curl_req = 'curl -L ' + '"' + url + '"'
p = subprocess.Popen(curl_req, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, shell=True)
(output, err) = p.communicate()  
p_status = p.wait()

try:
    decoded = json.loads(output)
    weather = decoded['weather'][0]['description']
    temp = decoded['main']['temp']
    f = codecs.open(FILE_PATH,'w', 'utf-8')
    f.write('Today is ' + weather + ' and ' + str(temp) + ' degrees.')
    f.close()
except (ValueError, KeyError, TypeError):
    pass

@LukeCodewalker i want to make the same Module for Switzerland but i don`t know how to find the json data for my region…

Can you help me please? ;) I found your link in the node_helper.js file. From where do you got that?

I would like o work with http://alarm.meteocentrale.ch/

@Squirrel
i did some reverse engineering of the dwd-website and found this json file.
i had a short look at your link and did not found something similar there. do you know if theres an app for ios where the data is shown? maybe i can help you then.

LukeCodewalker

@Squirrel
maybe this link helps you:
https://s3-eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/app-prod-static-fra.meteoswiss-app.ch/v1/warnings_with_outlook_with_naturalhazards_de.json

Squirrel

@LukeCodewalker Thx for the answer. I will try it out. At the moment i can`t find my City. But maybe only because there is no warning at the moment? Otherwise on the alarm.meteocentrale.ch is still a warning for snow on the streets…?

What about wetteralarm.ch/? This is a app for iPhone and Android! Maybe it can work with this site?

@Squirrel
I can’t download this app in germany, so I can’t have a look at the data it uses.

Squirrel

Ok. Shit happens. Maybe you can tell me with which program/method u read the code of a app? The I can do it alone…
