🌦 AWS Lambda function that sends daily weather info from the DarkSky API as an email via AWS SES, in one short JS file

WeatherNote 🌩

WeatherNote was (and will be) an AWS Lambda function that sends daily weather info from the DarkSky OpenWeatherMap API as an email via AWS SES, in one short JS TypeScript file. The plan is to have no outside dependencies, besides the AWS SDK, for interacting with SES, and Denofun for some Functional Programming utilities.

This was working as a single, ~100 line JavaScript file that you could deploy as an AWS Lambda function, but I am rewriting it for a couple reasons:

• The DarkSky API will be going away, and no longer accepts new signups for access
• I'm interested in having it run on Deno and follow a more functional paradigm

Currently, main.ts will output the temperature at given coordinates. Just clone the repo, add a client-values.json file in the same directory as main.ts, and try deno run --allow-read --allow-net main.ts.

The client-values.json file should look something like this:

{
  "appid": "dc5eb39d1fdba8db8c08fdb34c8682b3",
  "coords": [40.30969, -105.66679]
}

You can get an OpenWeatherMap App ID for this file from here.
