Use cases
configure system
As an administrator I'd like to configure the system.
arm / disarm system
As a user I'd like to arm/disarm the system. When the system is armed it will automatically sprinkle. If the system is disarmed only manual operation of the sprinkler is possible.

Hardware example
The system assumes that your sprinkler is controllable via a simple power on/power off mechanism. This is true for quite a few situations where your sprinkler is operated via a garden pump.
Software controllable power switch

Installation
Download jar (OS independent) or exe (Windows) file from https://github.com/BITPlan/com.bitplan.sprinkler/tree/master/release
Try it out
java -jar sprinkler.jar -h

Configuration
A minimal configuration file "default.json" looks like this:
{
"appid": "<insert your openweathermap api key here>",
"location": { "id": 2887186 }
}
First you might want to get an appid from openweathermap. You can find the id of your nearest location with some of the geo calls of the API: https://openweathermap.org/current#geo
