API key

Retrieve a new API key from DarkSky

To run this project, it's better to get your personal API key from DarkSky:

  1. Login or Register a new account on DarkSky
  2. On the account page, you'll get your Secret Key
  3. Copy and paste the key when you create a new client:
var client = new DarkSkyService("YOUR API KEY HERE");

Where to past my DarkSky API key ?

Go in the SourceModel class in Feels.Data namespace (path /Feels/Data/SourceModel.cs).

You can then edit the line number 15 and paste your personal key

private const string _APIKey = "DARKSKY_API_KEY";

Replace the DARKSKY_API_KEY value by your new API key.

It should now work :)
