####Java Library for OpenWeatherMap.org Weather APIs
OWM JAPIs lets you develop weather-aware applications for **Java and Android platforms** in minimum time using OWM JAPIs, an easy-to-use, detailed and documented weather APIs' wrapper library for retrieving weather data from OpenWeatherMap.org. You can easily **retrieve and use weather data** in your applications using this library.
OWM JAPIs lets you develop weather-aware applications for **Java, Android, and Kotlin** platforms in minimum time. It is an easy-to-use, well-documented wrapper library for OpenWeatherMap.org's Weather APIs. You can easily **retrieve and use weather data** in your applications using this library.
OWM JAPIs allows you to **fetch weather data in only 3-5 lines of code** (excluding any other/skeleton code, of course). You can develop applications and services for multiple platforms using this library, such as Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and Android.

###Why to use OWM JAPIs?
1. Free
2. Easy to use
3. Minimizes your code
3. Supports re-use
4. Minimizes the code
5. Developer-friendly
OWM JAPIs lets you **focus just on your application's logic** and **weather retrieval code is provided** by this library. Additionally, weather retrieval code becomes very short using this library as less as 3-5 lines of code can get you weather data from OpenWeatherMap.org in your Java or Android application. **Surprising, right? Have a look on the example(s) below.**
With OWM JAPIs, you can **focus just on your application's logic** and **delegate weather retrieval** to this library.

##How to use OWM JAPIs?
Anyone with little coding knowledge of Java will feel at home while using this library. **Identifiers are written to be self-explanatory and APIs' documentation** is also provided. It makes the coding process very easy, even for beginners.
Anyone with little coding knowledge of Java or Kotlin will feel at home while using this library. **Identifiers are written to be self-explanatory and APIs' documentation** (java docs) is also provided along with OWM JAPIs.
1. Add this JAR file in your project's libraries:
1. owm-japis.jar
1. owm-japis-{VERSION}.jar
2. Write your code as such:
1. Create and initialize object {obj1} of "OpenWeatherMap" class
1. Create and initialize object {obj1} of "OWM" class
2. Call this object's {obj1} functions to get the desired weather data (such as current weather, daily forecast, etc.).
3. The data is returned as a new object {obj2} of a compatible class based on the type of asked/retrieved weather data (current weather data comes in a different class's object than daily forecast data).
3. Call this returned object's {obj2} functions to get the required information from the collective weather data (such as temperature, pressure, wind speed, etc.).
Kindly have a look on the example(s) below for clear understanding.

You can simply use the APIs (as given in basic example) for learning, testing or experimenting with the functions provided in this library. But it may not be good enough for production or deployment environment.

Professionally, you should always **write code which can handle errors/exceptions** at the runtime. OWM JAPIs also helps here by providing checker functions which allows you to **check if a data is available or not**, i.e., that particular data is retrieved and parsed properly or not. Of course, exception handling can still be used, but these functions are really useful and make the retrieved-data-error-handling task very simple.

Using OWM JAPIs, you can always check if a particular data is available or not. This is done by using the **has<DataName>()** functions. For example, **hasResponseCode()** function checks if the retrieved data has a response code or not; and if available, response code can be used to check if the whole data was downloaded and parsed correctly or not.
Using OWM JAPIs, you can always check if a particular data is available or not. This is done by using the **has{DATA-NAME}()** functions. For example, **hasRespCode()** function checks if the retrieved data has a response code or not. And if available, response code can be used to check if the whole data was downloaded and parsed correctly or not, as you can see in the example below.
