Description

wp-ng-weather is a simple widget for WordPress, which allows you to put a weather widget in your website, by using a simple shortcode like this:

[ng-weather api-key=”my-api-key” city=”Bergamo” locale=”it”]

No coding is required!
wp-ng-weather is a wrapper for Tony Samperi’s ng-weather (tonysamperi.github.io/ng-weather/), which is an AngularJS Directive.
Weather data is got from http://www.openweathermap.org, but they need to track api usage.
So you’ll need your personal API KEY to use this widget, see “Installation” to learn how to get one!
With a FREE API KEY it’s possibile to make 60 calls per minute.
