FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package dmi

🇩🇰🌤️ Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) API.

The Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) does unfortunately not offer an official API (yet).

This package is (in some form) a workaround for that. It collects all weather data (forecasts and archived) from the official DMI website and turns it into structured data objects.

Note: Since the data is being extracted from a the website, there is a risk of the package could stop working, if the website does any breaking changes.

Should this happen, please don't hesitate to create an issue and I will look into it as quickly as possible

⚠️ Disclaimer

As part of the danish governments desire to become one of the digital frontrunners, they have decided that the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) has to make all of their data available to the public.

The data will be released in multiple stages over the next 3 years, starting from Q3 in 2019 until Q4 in 2022. Unfortunately there is not much information on how the data will be released.

Depending on how the data will be released, this package will be subject to changes in the future.

Since the data is not officially released, this package is made available under a very strict license, which prohibits any use other than personal.

When DMI releases the data publicly, the license will be changed to a more open source-friendly (MIT) version.

🌤 Icons

When getting weather data from a location, the response will contain an $icon value. The purpose of this value is to determine which icon represents the current weather conditions.

In the table below is a list of all possible icons and values. Each icon is associated with a suggested emoji or image.

I would recommend downloading the free icon pack from Pixel Perfect, since it's one of the few ones, that both contains a day and night version of each condition - while still being free.

🗣 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How do I find the ID of a pre-defined location?

There are two ways to find it:

  1. Use this package's search endpoint.

  2. Go to DMI's website and use the search feature in the top right corner. If your desired location pops up; click on it and you will be directed to the locations page. You can now copy/paste the ID from the locations URL.

    https://www.dmi.dk/lokation/show/DK/2618425/København/

What is this Tightenco\Collect\Support\Collection class and how does it work?

All endpoints returns data within a Tightenco\Collect\Support\Collection class. The class is a port of the popular Collection class from Laravel.

Please refer to Laravel's detailed documentation, to learn more about how you work with a Collection:
https://laravel.com/docs/master/collections

🗺 Roadmap

Internal caching

Some endpoints, like pollen measurements are endpoints which doesn't change/update very often.

By implementing some form of internal caching, we could cache these kind of endpoints. This would increase the response time and we would avoid making unnecessary requests to DMI.
