About

This small node script pulls information from wunderground and pushes to infuxdb. It uses slack to notify of errors.

I use this to show outside conditions on my home weather monitoring dashboard.

Wunderground Data

Bot pulls the following data for the zip specified.

1. current_temperature
2. current_humidity
3. pressure_mb

Install

1. npm install
2. Copy env.dist to .env
3. Populate .env with the correct values.
4. Run with node app.js or for production use pm2 or similar.
