Weather Image Saver

Description: Create a program that saves the current weather as a PNG image.

Skills practiced: - Working with binary data - File I/O - Error handling

Sample code:

import fetch_my_weather
import os
from datetime import datetime

def save_weather_image(location, save_directory="weather_images"):
    # Create the directory if it doesn't exist
    if not os.path.exists(save_directory):
        os.makedirs(save_directory)

    # Get current date and time for the filename
    current_time = datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S")
    filename = f"{save_directory}/{location.replace(' ', '_')}_{current_time}.png"

    # Get the weather as PNG with metadata for error handling
    print(f"Getting weather for {location}...")
    response = fetch_my_weather.get_weather(
        location=location, 
        format="png",  # Use PNG format (instead of deprecated is_png)
        png_options="p",  # Add padding for better presentation
        with_metadata=True  # Get metadata for error tracking
    )

    # Check if we have metadata (using the new API)
    if hasattr(response, 'metadata'):
        metadata = response.metadata
        weather_png = response.data

        # Check if we received mock data
        if metadata.is_mock:
            print(f"Note: Using mock weather image due to: {metadata.error_message}")
    else:
        # Assume it's bytes data directly (shouldn't happen with with_metadata=True)
        weather_png = response

    # Ensure we have binary data
    if not isinstance(weather_png, bytes):
        print(f"Error: Did not receive valid image data")
        return False

    # Save the PNG to a file
    try:
        with open(filename, "wb") as f:
            f.write(weather_png)
        print(f"Saved weather image to {filename}")
        return True
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"Error saving file: {e}")
        return False

# Save weather for New York
save_weather_image("New York")

Extensions: - Add options for transparent or padded images - Create a daily weather logger that saves an image every day
