A weather handler is a tool or library that helps developers integrate weather data into applications. It works by retrieving real-time or forecasted weather information from external sources, such as weather APIs, and presenting it in a way that is easy to use in applications like websites, mobile apps, or IoT devices.

​
Example

This code initializes a WeatherHandler, which is designed to fetch weather-related data. This setup enables the application to access various weather services for retrieving current latitude and longitude.

weather_handler.py
import asyncio

from superagentx_handlers.weather import WeatherHandler

weather_handler = WeatherHandler()


async def get_lat_long(place):
    return await weather_handler.get_lat_long(place=place)


async def get_weather(place):
    lat_long = await get_lat_long(place)
    latitude = lat_long.get("latitude")
    longitude = lat_long.get("longitude")
    return await weather_handler.get_weather(
        latitude=latitude,
        longitude=longitude
        )


async def main(place):
    res = await get_weather(place)
    print(res)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    place="coimbatore"
    asyncio.run(main(place))
