System tray app for Windows OS written in Clojure that shows outside temperature in given city using data from openweathermap.org. Color of text is changing based on the temperature. Supports both Celsius and Fahrenheit scale.
Tooltip contains additional weather info (wind speed, direction, sunrise, sunset, etc.)
Screenshot:
I created this application for two reasons:
- To learn Clojure Java interop.
- I'm using similar application but it displays cloud/sun/whatever icons instead of outside temperature: https://github.com/FelixdelasPozas/TrayWeather. I recommend it if you need more functionality.
lein uberjar
-
Copy generated standalone jar file somewhere along with the config file and bat file, e.g:
mkdir somedir cp .\target\uberjar\clj-openweather-tray-0.0.4-standalone.jar somedir\ cp .\clj-openweather-tray-conf.edn somedir\ cp .\clj-openweather-tray.bat somedir\ -
Open config file and add city-id and api-key.
- You can get list of city ids here: http://bulk.openweathermap.org/sample/.
- Follow these instructions to get your api key: https://openweathermap.org/api.
Run bat file:
.\clj-openweather-tray.bat
Create binary using GraalVM's native-image. Swing support is still missing: oracle/graal#1327.
16 pixels, which is the size of tray icon on Windows OS, is not much if you want to fit 3 or 4 chars inside and still be able to read it :)
