This is a weather API built with Django that consumes the OpenWeatherMap API. It retrieves weather information, stores request history in a MongoDB database, and allows deletion of specific history records. It features authentication with PyJWT and is integrated with a React frontend available in the React-Weather-Front repository.

• Get Weather Information: Makes a request to the OpenWeatherMap API and returns weather data.
• Store History: Saves request information in MongoDB.
• Delete History: Allows logged-in users to delete history records.
• Authentication: Users can register, log in, and log out.
• View History: Any user can view the history, but making requests requires providing an API key.

• Get Weather Information: GET /weather/
• View Request History: GET /weather/history/
• View Specific Request Details: GET /weather/history/<str:weather_id>/
• Register User: POST /user/register/
• User Login: POST /user/login/
• User Information: GET /user/
• Update User: PUT /user/update/
• Delete User: DELETE /user/delete

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/lucasgearhead/Django-Weather-Api.git
   cd Django-Weather-Api

2. Create and activate a virtual environment:

   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows use `venv\Scripts\activate`

3. Install the dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Start the server:

   python manage.py runserver

The API will be available at http://localhost:8000.

The React frontend that connects to this API is available in the React-Weather-Front repository.
