You initialize it with a warncell ID, GPS coordinates, or location name, and it retrieves structured warning data including severity levels, event types, time ranges, and health impact information.\n\nThe package wraps the DWD's WFS (Web Feature Service) API, handling the HTTP requests via requests and urllib3, and parses the responses into Python dictionaries and datetime objects. It's designed for applications that need to display or act on German weather alerts\u2014such as mobile apps, home automation systems, or health-related services\u2014and supports periodic polling via its update() method to keep data current.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to integrate German weather warnings or bio-weather forecasts into a Python application. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, installs with minimal friction, and is licensed permissively. The main constraint is the Python 3.11+ requirement; if your project supports that, it's a straightforward choice for DWD data access."},"id":"dwdwfsapi","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/dwdwfsapi","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/dwdwfsapi.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/dwdwfsapi/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-03-18","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"dwdwfsapi","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Python client to retrieve data provided by DWD via their geoserver WFS API"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":73595,"position":14965,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.0"}
