Yandex weather api, how to get an answer in Russian?

Question

API

I send a request to https://api.weather.yandex.ru/v1/forecast?lang=ru_...

the response is returned to en although lang=ru_Ru is wrong

Answer 1

Really strange.
We asked Yandex technical support and this is the answer we received:

Do I understand correctly that you are confused by symbols like condition: "partly-cloudy-and-light-snow"? The fact is that these are essentially codes, not text fields. Therefore, they will be displayed in English in any interface language.
To understand if lang works or not, please pay attention to the url field. In the handle of the informer, when the language changes, the url will change.

What to do if you still need to get a translation of these same ones ? One option is to write an array map yourself. There will be something like this:condition: "partly-cloudy-and-light-snow"

const yandexResponse = await getForecast();
const weatherTranslations = {
 'partly-cloudy-and-light-snow': 'небольшой снег'
};
console.log(weatherTranslations[yandexResponse.fact.condition])

All translations can be taken from the documentation .

Answer 2

caps, " ru_RU " is the Russian language for the Russian domain.
