Welcome folks today in this blog post we will be scraping live weather desktop notifications using wintoast library and beautifulsoup4 library in python. All the full source code of the application is shown below.

Get Started

In order to get started you need to install the following library using the pip commnad

pip install win10toast

pip install bs4

pip install requests

After installing these libraries make an app.py file and copy paste the following code

app.py

# import required libraries 
import requests 
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup 
from win10toast import ToastNotifier 

# create an object to ToastNotifier class 
n = ToastNotifier() 

# define a function 
def getdata(url): 
    r = requests.get(url) 
    return r.text 
    
htmldata = getdata("https://weather.com/en-IN/weather/today/l/25.59,85.14?par=google&temp=c/") 

soup = BeautifulSoup(htmldata, 'html.parser') 

current_temp = soup.find_all("span", class_= "_-_-components-src-organism-CurrentConditions-CurrentConditions--tempValue--MHmYY") 

chances_rain = soup.find_all("div", class_= "_-_-components-src-organism-CurrentConditions-CurrentConditions--precipValue--2aJSf") 

temp = (str(current_temp)) 

temp_rain = str(chances_rain) 

result = "current_temp " + temp[128:-9] + " in patna bihar" + "\n" + temp_rain[131:-14] 
n.show_toast("live Weather update", 
            result, duration = 10)

Now if you execute the python script by typing the below command as shown below

python app.py

As you can see we have got the live weather update desktop notification as shown above in patna bihar
