CovidActNow

A CovidActNow.org API client written in TypeScript.

Note: @kolyaventuri is not affiliated with CovidActNow in any way. This is moreso a side-project, as a way to explore building a strictly typed API client from the ground up.

Browser: <script type="text/javascript" src="https://unpkg.com/@kolyaventuri/covid-act-now"/>

Contributing

PRs are more than welcome! There's some more work to do, such as parsing dates out of the response data (string -> Date conversion), and some more robust docs.

Running Tests

• npm run test will run the linter (tsc && xo), and the test with ava
• npm run test:integration will run a basic integration suite, provided you have defined your COVID_ACT_NOW_KEY in a .env file (see .env.example)
