Create WoeId Database

[seljabali]

WoeId stands for Where on Earth Id. It's used to lookup a location's weather forecast. Not only MetaWeather uses it, but YahooWeather too.

In searching online couldn't find a free location search <=> woeid api end point, hence ought to invest in creating our own local database that's queryable to allow for realtime search when adding a new city to be added as a favorite for users.

Action Items:

• Look for an existing db that has city name, state, and country as searchable params & returns its woeId. If found, convert to a digestible db form for ObjectBox.
• If no db is found, then write a crawler to search wikipedia or an existing site that lists all woeid locations and create an ObjectBox db out of it.
