NodeJS API client for Dark Sky API.

$ npm install darksky-node --save

You'll need a developer key for the Dark Sky API which can you can create here.

Create an instance of the Dark Sky API Client:

var DarkSky = require('darksky-node');

var darkSkyClient = new DarkSky('myApiKey');

All methods take the same options object:

• exclude: array containing any of: currently, minutely, hourly, daily, alerts, flags.
• extend: pass hourly for hour-by-hour data for the next 168 hours, instead of the next 48.
• lang: en or any other i18n
• units: us, si, ca, uk2, auto

Once you have an instance of the API you can call any of the available methods

A Forecast Request returns the current conditions, a minute-by-minute forecast for the next hour, an hour-by-hour forecast for the next 48 hours, and a day-by-day forecast for the next week.

darkSkyClient.forecast(latitude, longitude, options, function(err, forecast){
    if(err) console.error(err);
    else console.dir(forecast);
});

A Time Machine Request returns the observed (in the past) or forecasted (in the future) hour-by-hour and daily weather conditions for a particular date.

darkSkyClient.timemachine(latitude, longitude, new Date(), options, function(err, forecast){
    if(err) console.error(err);
    else console.dir(forecast);
});
