Created an Express Application with the Express application generator with the goal to create a REST API Node.js project that can handle validations and retrieve the data only from the below mentioned APIs.
API's used:
The app consist of two different endpoints:
-
An endpoint that receives an address and validates it if it’s valid. This address must be in an object with the properties street, streetNumber, town, postalCode and country.
-
An endpoint that receives an address, validate it and checks the weather for the latitude/longitude of that address.
Endpoint 1 : the Here Maps API is being pinged with a body consisting of an object with the properties street, streetNumber, town, postalCode and country. If the address is correct the endpoint will respond with {valid: true} otherwise {valid: false}
Endpoint 2 : the Here Maps API is being pinged with a body consisting of an object with the properties street, streetNumber, town, postalCode and country. If the address is correct the endpoint will return the latitude and longitude at that given address. This will be passed into the Open Weather API which ``returns in case all goes well the weather and temperature at the given address based on the latitude and longitude.
You could connect this to a Frontend maybe with React and create a weather web app based on specific location.
