Setting global options for every request
In the settings you can add global options that will have used on every request made to Forecast.io. You can add this in the options
key of the settings file.
For instance if you want temperature in Celsius:
'options' => [ 'units' => 'si', ],
For more details and all available options check the official documentation.
Alternative method: dependency injection
You can also inject the Nwidart\ForecastPhp\Forecast
class into your constructor.
/** * @var \Nwidart\ForecastPhp\Forecast */ private $forecast; public function __construct(\Nwidart\ForecastPhp\Forecast $forecast) { $this->forecast = $forecast; } public function doSomething() { $weather = $this->forecast->get($lat, $lon); }
