php Yahoo Weather API WOEID 检索

Yahoo Weather API WOEID retrieval

提问by askon

I'm creating an app (PHP) that takes yahoo weather data from the free RSS feed and correlates it with a colour hex based on data retrieved from the RSS feed. The issue I'm having is finding a way to grab the location code or WOEID without doing it manually.

我正在创建一个应用程序 (PHP)，它从免费的 RSS 提要中获取雅虎天气数据，并将其与基于从 RSS 提要中检索到的数据的颜色十六进制相关联。我遇到的问题是找到一种无需手动操作即可获取位置代码或 WOEID 的方法。

Yahoos API sends back an RSS feed as long as you provide a WOEID -> http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?w=4097

只要您提供 WOEID，Yahoos API 就会发回 RSS 提要 -> http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?w=4097

Is there an ethical way of doing this? My beginner knowledge tells me I have to write a script that would search yahoo using the term and grab the first WOEID, but I would assume yahoo doesn't want scripts doing this and it seems overcomplicated... If not, are there any alternative APIs that would make this easier on me?

有没有道德的方式来做到这一点？我的初学者知识告诉我我必须编写一个脚本来使用该术语搜索雅虎并获取第一个 WOEID，但我认为雅虎不希望脚本这样做并且看起来过于复杂......如果没有，还有其他选择吗可以让我更轻松的 API？

Thanks!

谢谢！

Why not just use the Yahoo! GeoPlanet service to resolve a place to a WOEID? Or use the YQL service to access GeoPlanet via it's table?

为什么不直接使用 Yahoo! GeoPlanet 服务将一个地方解析为 WOEID？或者使用 YQL 服务通过它的表访问 GeoPlanet？

http://where.yahooapis.com/v1/places.q('Barrie CA')?appid=[yourappidhere]

or

或者

http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select%20*%20from%20geo.places%20where%20text%3D%22Barrie%20CA%22&format=xml

No need for scraping.

无需刮痧。
