The README file should have syntax highlighting in the example code to make it more readable.

The unit tests shouldn't actually download data. Let's use mock data instead and keep the tests running faster.

using the yweather module in python returns a long error. Shortened to a few words: server not found. The service has probably been abandoned by Yahoo, since http://xml.weather.yahoo.com/ does not exist anymore.

Hi! I used the python module pywapi to extract weather informations, but when Yahoo changed its API, it didn't work. So I downloaded yweather from git and I launched the command python3 setup.py install inside the directory yweather. After that, I was trying to catch some weather informations about my city and I wrote this code:
import yweather
client = yweather.Client()
result = client.fetch_weather("12798281", metric=True)
print(result)

result = client.fetch_weather("12798281", metric=True)
File "/home/SmartStation/yweather.py", line 180, in fetch_weather
rss = self._fetch_xml(url)
File "/home/SmartStation/yweather.py", line 344, in _fetch_xml
with contextlib.closing(urlopen(url)) as f:
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 153, in urlopen
return opener.open(url, data, timeout)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 461, in open
response = meth(req, response)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 571, in http_response
'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 499, in error
return self._call_chain(_args)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 433, in _call_chain
result = func(_args)
File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 579, in http_error_default
raise HTTPError(req.full_url, code, msg, hdrs, fp)
urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 502: Connection refused
What is the problem? I'm using Python 3.4.3 on my Raspberry PI B+. I couldn't use pip, because pip3 didn't work.

vegaswe = client.fetch_weather("2436704")

I was just trying this out for the first time. This may be an easy fix because I am just a noob so please tell me if this is something I am doing thanks.
