Node js express request weather API

Question

I am working with node js, express, request, and ejs. The following code works but the JSON data isn't updating. When I view the raw JSON URL I'm not getting the same data as my application is showing.

app.js file:

var express = require("express");
var app = express();
var request = require("request");

app.set("view engine", "ejs");
app.use(express.static(__dirname + "/public"));

app.get("/", function(req, res){
    const weatherURL = "https://api.aerisapi.com/forecasts/:auto?&format=json&limit=1&client_id=" + apiId + "&client_secret=" + apiSecret;
    request(weatherURL, function(error, response, body){
    let weather_json = JSON.parse(body);
    const weather = {
        forecast : weather_json.response[0].periods[0].weather,
        temp: weather_json.response[0].periods[0].feelslikeF,
        icon : weather_json.response[0].periods[0].icon
    };
    res.render("index", {weather: weather});
    });
});

app.listen(process.env.PORT, process.env.IP, function(){
    console.log("App has Started!");
});

I am getting Partly Cloudy with Isolated Storms 65° in my application when the data should be Partly Cloudy 62°.

Maybe the JSON is getting cached?

JSON from the url:

Answer 1

如果您认为要缓存数据，则可以尝试在查询参数中添加时间戳。像这样：

const weatherURL = "https://api.aerisapi.com/forecasts/:auto?&format=json&limit=1&client_id=" + apiId + "&client_secret=" + apiSecret + "&t=" + Date.now();

Answer 2

我正在尝试重现您的问题，但始终无法在原始json与视图中显示的数据之间进行匹配

也许这与ejs缓存有关，您是否尝试添加此行？

app.disable('view cache');
