consolia-api is an npm module (with a command line utility) for fetching comics from consolia-comic.com.
npm install --save consolia-apiThe package has two functions, archive (fetches all the comics), and load (fetches either the latest, random or id specified comic).
var consolia = require('consolia-api');
// fetching all the comics
consolia.archive(function (data, err) {
if (err != null)
console.log(err);
else
console.log(data);
});
// fetching by the latest comic
consolia.load('latest', function (data, err) {
// ---write your code---
});
// fetching any random comic
consolia.load('random', function (data, err) {
// ---write your code---
});
// fetching by id
consolia.load(85, function (data, err) {
// ---write your code---
});load returns a JSON containing the data, while archive returns an array of all the JSONs. Example of one such comic returned:
