OpenWeatherMap provide APIs to search weather data in JSON, XML or HTML format. This example demonstrate how to parse JSON from OpenWeatherMap to search weather of London, UK.
Before we can use java-json in our project, follow
the instruction to add JAR in NetBeans.
Example code:
package java_openweathermap;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.net.HttpURLConnection;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;
import org.json.JSONArray;
import org.json.JSONException;
import org.json.JSONObject;

Note:
- It's a simple example, without handle error condition; such as service unavailable, some item missing...etc.
