❔ Accessing json results for a weather api console app

https://paste.mod.gg/jtzzrouisnhf/0 I'm trying to access the temperatures, but when I try to get back a list according to how i have it in the WeatherInfo.cs class, it doesn't work. Any suggestions?

mapping is wrong, you send 3 get requests to 1 url and map it into different objects. solution would be to map it into one object {"latitude":33.98601,"longitude":-117.748215,"generationtime_ms":0.3509521484375,"utc_offset_seconds":-25200,"timezone":"America/Los_Angeles","timezone_abbreviation":"PDT","elevation":295.0,"daily_units":{"time":"iso8601","temperature_2m_max":"°F"},"daily":{"time":["2023-06-17","2023-06-18","2023-06-19","2023-06-20","2023-06-21","2023-06-22","2023-06-23"],"temperature_2m_max":[86.3,79.6,76.9,80.0,81.4,77.6,78.2]}}

 
class DailyUnits
{
  string time;
  string temperature_2m_max;
}

class Daily
{
  List<string> time; // or List<DateTime>
  List<double> temperature_2m_max;
}

class Weather
{
  double latitude;
  double longitude;
  double generationtime_ms;
  int utc_offset_seconds;
  string timezone;
  string timezone_abbreviation;
  double elevation;
  DailyUnits dayly_units;
  Daily daily;
}

 
class DailyUnits
{
  string time;
  string temperature_2m_max;
}

class Daily
{
  List<string> time; // or List<DateTime>
  List<double> temperature_2m_max;
}

class Weather
{
  double latitude;
  double longitude;
  double generationtime_ms;
  int utc_offset_seconds;
  string timezone;
  string timezone_abbreviation;
  double elevation;
  DailyUnits dayly_units;
  Daily daily;
}

should be something like that

so to map into one object, would it be a single get request into an object of the WeatherInfo class? and i decided not to include some of those properties because i was told i could ignore them if i didn't want them in this case i only want what i ahve in my current class, but when i call the api it gives me stuff i dont want

daysleeper•2y ago

you can exclude some properties of you dont want them

oh i think i see it now, so i want to call dailyunits and daily in the weather class and that would be just one object that i could call everything from i'm confused on how i would access each daily and dailyunits entry though

var rootResults = await client.GetFromJsonAsync<Root>("https://api.open-meteo.com/v1/forecast?latitude=33.99&longitude=-117.76&daily=temperature_2m_max&temperature_unit=fahrenheit&timezone=America%2FLos_Angeles");

Console.WriteLine(rootResults.latitude);
Console.WriteLine(rootResults.longitude);
Console.WriteLine(rootResults.timezone);
Console.WriteLine(rootResults.daily);

var rootResults = await client.GetFromJsonAsync<Root>("https://api.open-meteo.com/v1/forecast?latitude=33.99&longitude=-117.76&daily=temperature_2m_max&temperature_unit=fahrenheit&timezone=America%2FLos_Angeles");

Console.WriteLine(rootResults.latitude);
Console.WriteLine(rootResults.longitude);
Console.WriteLine(rootResults.timezone);
Console.WriteLine(rootResults.daily);

from this my output is

daysleeper•2y ago

rootResults.daily.time[0]
