quick-intro

Scrapes accuweather data for info not normally found on your weather app such as humidity, visibility, dew point, and most importantly for me, cloud coverage. Also includes current moon phase data as well as next new moon. All of the info is then conveniently placed on your linux panel.

usage:

• the manual refresh bypasses the default 1hour refresh

Installation

1. clone this repo to your home directory via: git clone https://github.com/antoniofs23/cloud-coverage.git
2. In app directory run the INSTALL.sh file (first make it executable via chmod +x INSTALL.sh)

Important

the install file assumes python is already installed (which it normally is) if not python3 is required prior to running INSTALL.sh. To quickly check if python is installed run python -V in your terminal

running the app

The app should auto-start on login. However, it can also be run through the cloud-coverage terminal command
