About:
Libgweather is a core GNOME library that provides accurate weather information, location detection, and timezone data for applications. It integrates with geolocation services to fetch real-time meteorological data from various weather providers. The library handles location lookups and timezone calculations, enabling developers to build location-aware applications with consistent weather data.
Key Features:
  • Real-time weather data fetching from multiple providers
  • Geolocation and location lookup capabilities
  • Timezone detection and calculation
  • City and country database for location resolution
  • GNOME integration with GSettings and other platform APIs
Use Cases:
  • Building desktop weather applications for GNOME
  • Adding location-based weather features to applications
  • Implementing timezone-aware scheduling or calendar features
  • Creating location detection for system utilities
Alternatives:
  • OpenWeatherMap API – Direct API integration vs. system library; requires manual implementation but offers more provider flexibility
  • geoclue – Geoclue focuses on location services only, while Libgweather combines location with weather data and timezone handling
