check_openweathermap

Project Notes

root@yourhost:/yournagioscontribdir# ./check_openweathermap.pl

usage: ./check_openweathermap.pl <locationstring> <wantedinfo> [api-key]

locationstring is usually 'townname,countrytld' (ie. Wuerzburg,de or London,uk),
but can be id=<owm-id> as well.

wantedinfo is either 'all' or one of the following:
sys-country,sys-sunrise,sys-sunset (in epoch time)
weather-main (ie. 'Clouds'), weather-description (ie. 'Broken clouds'), clouds-all (ie. '68' percent)
main-temp,main-humidity,main-pressure,main-temp_min,main-temp_max,wind-speed,wind-gust,wind-deg (just the stated)
name (name of location), coord-lat (latitude of location), coord-lon (longitude of location), id (id of weatherstation)

perfdata is being created with all available data, all the time.

if you are getting an error, you probably need a (supposedly free) API key.
