$weather = get_awesome_weather_openweathermaps( 'London' );

// CURRENT CONDITION STRING: sunny, cloudy, snow, etc.
echo awesome_weather_preset_condition_names_openweathermaps($weather->data['current']['condition_code']);

awe_get_appid

If for whatever you reason you want to get the OpenWeatherMap APP ID that you (or your client) has entered to make a custom call to their API. You can grab it with this function. It is smart enough to check for the wp-config first then the option saved in the database.

// GET KEY
$appkey = awe_get_appid();

// ... MAKE CUSTOM CALL TO OPENWEATHERMAP
$weather = wp_remote_get( "http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?id=345345&lang=sp&units=metric&APPID=" .  $appkey);

awe_get_long_lat_city_id($weather,$what_to_get)

Get the City ID (for whichever provider) based on a Latitude and Longitude location. The first $weather attribute needs to be an object. And the $what_to_get has two options: just the id or a little object about the location (which includes the id, but also has a city, state, etc.)

// CREATE AN OBJECT
$location = new stdclass;
$location->longlat_location = '48.856614,2.352222';

// GET CITY ID
$city_id = awe_get_long_lat_city_id($location);

// GET OBJECT ABOUT CITY
$city_data = awe_get_long_lat_city_id($location, 'data');

awe_c_to_f( $c )

awe_f_to_c( $f )

$current_temp = awe_f_to_c( $weather->data['current']['temp'] );
