What is Secrets.swift? Cannot build in Xcode.

[bracklanna]

Can you please expand the README to explain how the Secrets.swift file is supposed to be added/configured within Xcode before attempting to build?

Secrets.swift basically defines Secrets.apiKey which is the API key that you need from airnowapi.org.

You can get that value from creating an account at https://www.airnowapi.org
and doing this: https://docs.airnowapi.org/forecastsbyzip/query
generate a query and it will look something like this

http://www.airnowapi.org/aq/forecast/zipCode/?format=text/csv&zipCode=94086&date=2020-08-21&distance=25&API_KEY=<really-long-random-string>

take the <really-long-random-string> part and replace the \(Secrets.apiKey) with it in this line:

Air/Air/AirQuality.swift

Line 50 in d437bf8

let urlString = "http://www.airnowapi.org/aq/observation/zipCode/current/?format=application/json&API_KEY=\(Secrets.apiKey)&zipCode="

Also delete the Secrets.swift file reference in xcode and you will be able to build and run it now.

If I get around to it I might put in a PR that will make the API Key a part of the config menu...
