Perceptive, a weather notification module for awesome

Perceptive is a module for awesome wm for brief and compact weather notification via naughty lib and Yahoo! Weather API.

Requirements

  • awesome 3.4 (awesome 3.5 is not supported yet)
  • /tmp directory (I'll store a temporary file over there.)
  • python 2.7

Usage

Clone perceptive repository into your $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/awesome (awesome config dir). Then, add on top of rc.lua :

require("perceptive")

Bind perceptive notification to some widget:

perceptive.register(mytextclock, 2123260)

Where the second argument is so-called WOEID code of your city. To obtain it you can google 'yahoo weather %CITYNAME%' and follow the first link. It will look like http://weather.yahoo.com/united-states/california/san-diego-2487889/ and the last number in that link will be the ID you need.
