FFXIV weather forecast library for C# applications.

Credit to Garland Tools for weather data, and XIVAPI and FFCafe for game data.

Installation

Install-Package FFXIVWeather or other methods as described here.

Example

Code:

var weatherService = new FFXIVWeatherService();
var zone = "Eureka Pyros";
var count = 15U;

var forecast = weatherService.GetForecast(zone, count);

Console.WriteLine($"Weather for {zone}:");
Console.WriteLine("|\tWeather\t\t|\tTime\t|");
Console.WriteLine("+-----------------------+---------------+");
foreach (var (weather, startTime) in forecast)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"|\t{(weather.ToString().Length < 8 ? weather.ToString() + '\t' : weather.ToString())}\t|\t{Math.Round((startTime - DateTime.UtcNow).TotalMinutes)}m\t|");
}

Output:

Maintaining

In the event that I cease to maintain this library and ffxivweather-py before game content updates cease, here's the patch-update process:

1. Run the resource generator, which will output the 3 JSON resources into the library's data directory.
2. Compile and publish the library.
3. Copy the 3 JSON resources to ffxivweather-py's store directory.
4. Publish that library.
