API

• Check the OpenWeatherMap Docs, the Lib is a 1:1 copy of the official Docs.
• Each proc links to the official OWM API docs.
• All procs should return an JSON Object JsonNode.
• The naming of the procs follows the naming on the OWM Wiki.
• The errors on the procs follows the errors on the OWM Wiki.
• API Calls are HTTP GET.
• API Calls use the DoNotTrack HTTP Header.
• The timeout argument is on Seconds.
• For Proxy support define a OWM.proxy or AsyncOWM.proxy of Proxy type.
• No OS-specific code, so it should work on Linux, Windows and Mac. Not JS.
• Air Pollution works but returns lots of {"message":"not found"} until you find a coordinate with data, tiny coverage, endpoint is Beta.
• 5 Days Forecast code is commented-out because is not working, send Pull Request if you can make it work.
• Run the module itself for an Example.

Support

All the Free tier is covered, including Air Pollution, except Alerts endpoint and PNG Image Maps.
