Flutter OpenWeatherMap api fetch forecast

Time:05-07

So... I got this One Call Api which also includes forecast for 7 days. I managed to get display the current weather (temp, and icon) but how do I get the forecast for the next 4 days?

My API: https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall?lat=lat&lon=lon&exclude=minutely,hourly,alerts&cnt=4&appid={MyKey}&units=metric

My model:

class CurrentWeatherModel {
      final WeatherInfo weatherInfo;
      final double temp;
      const CurrentWeatherModel({
        required this.weatherInfo, required this.temp
      });
    
      factory CurrentWeatherModel.fromJson(json){
        return CurrentWeatherModel(
            weatherInfo: WeatherInfo.fromJson(json['weather'][0]),
          temp: json['temp'],
        );
      }
    }
    
    class HourlyWeatherModel {
      final double temp;
      final WeatherInfo weatherInfo;
      const HourlyWeatherModel(
          {
            required this.temp,
            required this.weatherInfo
          }
          );
    
      factory HourlyWeatherModel.fromJson(json){
        return HourlyWeatherModel(
            temp: json['temp'],
            weatherInfo: WeatherInfo.fromJson(json['weather'][0])
        );
      }
    }
    
    class DailyWeatherInfoModel {
      final TempModel dailyTemp;
      final WeatherInfo weatherInfo;
      final DateTime date;
      final int dt;
    
      const DailyWeatherInfoModel(
          {
            required this.dailyTemp,
            required this.weatherInfo,
            required this.date,
            required this.dt,
          }
          );
    
      factory DailyWeatherInfoModel.fromJson(json){
        return DailyWeatherInfoModel(
          dailyTemp: TempModel.fromJson(json['temp']),
          dt: json['dt'],
          date: DateTime.fromMillisecondsSinceEpoch(json['dt'] * 1000,
              isUtc: true),
            weatherInfo: WeatherInfo.fromJson(json['weather'][0]),
        );
      }
    }
    
    class TempModel {
      final double day;
      final double min;
      final double max;
      const TempModel(
          {
            required this.day,
            required this.min,
            required this.max
          }
          );
      factory TempModel.fromJson(json){
        return TempModel(
            day: json['day'],
            min: json['min'],
            max: json['max']
        );
      }
    }
    
    class WeatherInfo {
      final String? description;
      final String? icon;
      WeatherInfo({this.description, this.icon});
      factory WeatherInfo.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) {
        final description = json['description'];
        final icon = json['icon'];
        return WeatherInfo(description: description, icon: icon);
      }
    }
    
    class WeatherForecastResponse {
    
      final CurrentWeatherModel current;
      final HourlyWeatherModel hourly;
      final DailyWeatherInfoModel daily;
    
      String get iconCurrentWeatherUrl{
        return 'https://merakiapp.be/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/${current.weatherInfo.icon}.png';
      }
    
      String get iconDailyWeatherUrl{
        return 'https://merakiapp.be/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/${daily.weatherInfo.icon}.png';
      }
    
      const  WeatherForecastResponse(
          {
            required this.current,
            required this.daily,
            required this.hourly
          }
          );
    
      factory WeatherForecastResponse.fromJson(json){
        return WeatherForecastResponse(
            current: CurrentWeatherModel.fromJson(json['current']),
            hourly: HourlyWeatherModel.fromJson(json['hourly'][0]),
            daily: DailyWeatherInfoModel.fromJson(json['daily'][0])

CodePudding user response:

I would change your WeatherForecastResponse to have a list of DailyWeatherInfoModel vs a single model.


class WeatherForecastResponse {
  final CurrentWeatherModel current;
  final HourlyWeatherModel hourly;
  final List<DailyWeatherInfoModel> daily;
...
}

Then you parse a full list in the fromJson constructor

  factory WeatherForecastResponse.fromJson(json) {
    final dailyResponse = json['daily'] as List;
    final dailyForecastList = <DailyWeatherInfoModel>[];
    for (final day in dailyResponse) {
      dailyForecastList.add(DailyWeatherInfoModel.fromJson(day));
    }
    return WeatherForecastResponse(
        current: CurrentWeatherModel.fromJson(json['current']),
        hourly: HourlyWeatherModel.fromJson(json['hourly'][0]),
        daily: dailyForecastList);
  }

I would also just put the icon url in each daily/hourly model. This way you have a fully self contained list of DailyWeatherInfoModel with everything you need.

class DailyWeatherInfoModel {
  final TempModel dailyTemp;
  final WeatherInfo weatherInfo;
  final DateTime date;
  final int dt;
  final String iconUrl; // adding this

  const DailyWeatherInfoModel({
    required this.dailyTemp,
    required this.weatherInfo,
    required this.date,
    required this.dt,
    required this.iconUrl,
  });

  factory DailyWeatherInfoModel.fromJson(json) {
    final weatherInfo = WeatherInfo.fromJson(json['weather'][0]);
    final iconUrl =
        'https://merakiapp.be/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/${weatherInfo.icon}.png'; // init iconUrl here

    return DailyWeatherInfoModel(
      dailyTemp: TempModel.fromJson(json['temp']),
      dt: json['dt'],
      date: DateTime.fromMillisecondsSinceEpoch(json['dt'] * 1000, isUtc: true),
      weatherInfo: weatherInfo,
      iconUrl: iconUrl,
    );
  }
}

You can apply the same concept to the hourly forecast as well.
