Problem Statement

Tasker (see also the Reddit) is a powerful Android automation app which I use for many things. One thing I have been looking for is a way to easily query weather data from within Tasker so that I could then have Tasker do things like read the weather out loud to me. :)

Proposed Solution

A Tasker plugin for WeatherMaster could enable me to get weather data for the following kinds of queries (not a complete list):

  • Today's weather
  • The weather right now at my current location
  • The weather at 11am at Location A
  • The weather at 2pm at Location B
  • The weather tomorrow at 5pm at Location C

The plugin should return the data to Tasker both in a human readable format (eg, "The weather at 11am in Location A will be...") as well as some sort of array (or perhaps JSON) that can be parsed for more complicated things.

Querying WeatherMaster via this Tasker plugin should return the most current data (though you could certainly provide a way to make a given query use cached data, if the user so desires).

Alternatives Considered

No response

Additional Context

Thanks for creating WeatherMaster, and for considering my request! :)

@EnigmaSolved I'll look into it. There's also a #145 GadgetBright request, so yeah, if it's easy enough, it will be included in the next full release along with the others.

That would be awesome!! I will understand if it ends up being more complicated than expected and you have to postpone, but I appreciate you putting it on the list! :)
