@quatrain/backend-restapi-recipes

A collection of pre-configured integration recipes for the Quatrain RestBackendAdapter.

Overview

REST APIs have wildly different standards for pagination, filtering, and authentication. Instead of forcing developers to reinvent the wheel, this package provides standardized RestApiRecipe implementations tailored for popular public APIs.

Available Recipes

• OpenWeatherMap: Maps city, lat, and lon filters to the appropriate query strings (q, lat, lon), and automatically injects the appid key.
• AccuWeather: Translates location searches (q, city, locationKey) and automatically injects apikey, language, and details=true.
• CoinGecko: Translates standard Quatrain pagination into CoinGecko's page and per_page query parameters.

Basic Usage

import { RestBackendAdapter } from '@quatrain/backend-restapi'
import { CoinGeckoRecipe } from '@quatrain/backend-restapi-recipes'

// 1. Instantiate the desired recipe
const recipe = new CoinGeckoRecipe()

// 2. Fetch the pre-configured options and pass them to the adapter
const restAdapter = new RestBackendAdapter(recipe.getOptions({
   // You can override or add specific options here
   allowedMethods: ['find', 'read']
}))

Backend.init(restAdapter)
Copy

Contributing

We welcome contributions! To add a new recipe:

1. Create a class implementing the RestApiRecipe interface.
2. Ensure your querySerializer accurately translates Quatrain Filters into the target API's expected query string parameters.
3. Write comprehensive unit tests for your implementation.
