Install

Usage

var StarWarsAPI = require('star-wars-api');
 
swapi = new StarWarsAPI();

Get

All methods return a bluebird promise.

.get requires two arguments, a resource and an id. id can be a string, number, or array.

swapi.get('people', 1)
    .then(person => /* do something */)
    .catch(err => /* handle error */);
    
swapi.get('starships', [9, 10])
    .then(console.log) // logs [{name: 'Death Star' ...}, {name: 'Millenium Falcon' ...}]

Errors and responses from swapi.co that are not of status code 200 will be rejected.

swapi.get('people', 'Vegeta')
    .catch(console.error) // logs [Error] 404

Too few arguments to .get also throws an error. All resources except a full url require an id argument to passed to .get with them.

// no id argument results in a rejected promise
swapi.get('planets')
    .then(console.log)    // doesn't log
    .catch(console.error) // logs [Error] id argument required
 
// full resource url doesn't need id
swapi.get('http://swapi.co/api/species/3/')
    .then(console.log) // {name: 'Wookiee', language: 'Shyriiwook'...}

The full list of valid resources is:

people, films, starships, planets, vehicles, species

Convenience Methods

All valid resource argumets to .get also have convenience methods:

swapi.people(1)
swapi.films([7, 6, 3, 2, 1])
// etc...

The full list of api resources can obtained from the api via .describe

swapi.describe()
