🌦️ SkyCast: Weather Intelligence System

Class 12 Computer Science Project (083)

---

📝 Project Details

• Title: Weather Monitoring System with Python-MySQL Connectivity
• Developer: R JAYAM
• Subject: Computer Science (Class XII)
• Status: Stable / Deployment Ready

---

🚀 Overview

SkyCast is a professional desktop application developed for the Class 12 Computer Science practical examination. It bridges the gap between a Python-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) and a MySQL backend, demonstrating how modern software handles live data from the internet and stores it locally for persistent record-keeping.

✨ Key Features

• 🌐 Global Search: Fetches real-time weather data (temperature, humidity, wind) via OpenWeatherMap API.
• 🗄️ Data Persistence: Automated search logging and history tracking using MySQL Connector.
• 📍 Smart Geocoding: Instant coordinate translation for any city using geopy.
• 🕒 Timezone Aware: Dynamic clock synchronization using pytz and timezonefinder.
• 📦 Standalone App: Packaged into a portable .exe file using auto-py-to-exe for zero-install deployment.

📦 Python Modules Used

Module	Purpose
mysql.connector	Establishing Python-MySQL database connectivity.
requests	Fetching and parsing JSON data from REST APIs.
geopy	Performing geocoding for city coordinates.
timezonefinder	Finding local timezones based on coordinates.
pytz	Handling global time conversions.
auto-py-to-exe	Converting the Python script into a Windows Executable (.exe).

⚙️ Setup and Installation

1. Prerequisites

• Python 3.x installed.
• MySQL Server installed and running.

2. Database Configuration

Ensure MySQL is running and create the necessary database. Update your connection credentials (host, user, password) in the Python script.

CREATE DATABASE weather_db;
-- Create your tables as per the project documentation

###3. Installation Clone the repository and install the required dependencies: git clone https://github.com/RJ331155/Project-Weather-app.git pip install <module_name>

###4. Execution To launch the application from the source code: python "WEATHER APP.py"

The EXE [🚀 Download Standalone EXE](https://github.com/RJ331155/Project-Weather-app/raw/main/WEATHER2APP/WEATHER%20APP.exe)

##🖥️ Distribution A standalone Windows version is provided in the repository. This allows the application to run as a .exe on any machine without requiring a Python installation, provided a MySQL server is accessible to the application.

Declaration: This project is original work developed for the fulfillment of the Class 12 Computer Science Practical curriculum.
