The Lord Of The Rings SDK

Installation

npm install daniel-lee-lotr-sdk

Initialization

import { LotrSdk } from 'daniel-lee-lotr-sdk';

const sdk = new LotrSdk(<YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN_STRING>);

Usage

The following data outlined within the LOTR API can be fetched directly from the sdk client:

• books
• movies
• characters
• quotes
• chapters

To fetch all items of a particular item type:

sdk.<ITEM_TYPE>.getAll()

/* EXAMPLE */
const books = await sdk.books.getAll()

To fetch a single item by id:

sdk.<ITEM_TYPE>.getOneById(<ID>)

/* EXAMPLE */
const character = await sdk.characters.getOneById('5cd99d4bde30eff6ebccfc15')

The following item types also have additional methods:

Books

• Fetch all chapters of a specific book by ID

sdk.books.getAllChapters(<BOOK_ID>)

Quotes

• Fetch all quotes from a specific movie by ID

sdk.quotes.getAllQuotesFromMovie(<MOVIE_ID>)

• Fetch all quotes from a specific character by ID

sdk.quotes.getAllQuotesFromCharacter(<CHARACTER_ID>)

Query Parameters

As outlined in the LOTR API, there are also options for sorting, pagination, and filtering. For each endpoint, you may also pass in a params object to denote any special query parameters you desire.

Example

sdk.quotes.getAll({
    limit: 30,
    page: 2,
    offset: 4
  })

The interface of the params object is as follows

{
  /* PAGINATION */
  limit: number
  page: number
  offset: number
  /* SORTING */
  sort: string 
  /* FILTERING */
  filters: string
}

Sorting

For the sort parameter, the string should be formatted like the following

{
  ...
  sort: <VALUE>:<'asc' or 'dsc'>
}

Where asc and dsc denotes either ascending or descending order respectively. Example:

const charactersInAlphabeticalOrder = await sdk.characters.getAll({
    sort: "name:asc"
  })

Filtering

For the filters parameter, you may utilize the FiltersBuilder builder class that will generate a query string denoting your filters. The FiltersBuilder class contains the following methods:

includes(key,value)
excludes(key,value)
exists(key)
doesNotExist(key)
lessThan(key,value,equalTo) // equalTo should be a boolean value denoting if the comparison should be inclusive
greaterThan(key,value,equalTo)

NOTE: The includes(key,value) and excludes(key,value) methods can take either a single string, CSV, or regex. These methods roll the match, include, and regex filters into one method.

Example:

const allNonMaiarMaleCharacters = await sdk.charcters.getAll({
    filters: new FiltersBuilder()
      .includes("gender","Male")
      .excludes("race","Maiar)
      .build()
  })

Rate Limit

There is currently a rate limit of 100 request per 10 minutes. Please keep that in mind as you play around :)
