yahoo-weather-java-api Build Status

Current version is not working because the yql service by Yahoo has been dismissed (https://developer.yahoo.com/yql/)

A Java library for the yahoo weather service.

The library is a lightweight wrapper for the Yahoo Weather API (http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/).

The only required dependency is the slf4j-api library.

Usage example:

YahooWeatherService service = new YahooWeatherService();
Channel channel = service.getForecast("2502265", DegreeUnit.CELSIUS);
System.out.println(channel.getDescription());
