Covid API

This is a Crystal wrapper for the COVID19 API.

Currently, it doesn't cover all the options of the API. The two main classes are GlobalHistory and CountryHistory. Values of most other API endpoints can be determined from those two.

Installation

  1. Add the dependency to your shard.yml:

    dependencies:
  covidapi:
    github: HCLarsen/covidapi

  2. Run shards install

Usage

require "covidapi"

To obtain the history of global spread of the virus, use Covidapi#getGlobalHistory.

global = Covidapi.getGlobalHistory
assert_equal global.results.size                  #=> 63
assert_equal global.results.last_value.confirmed  #=> 418678

Passing in the three letter code for a country to the #getCountryHistory method will return the historical data for that country.

canada = Covidapi.getCountryHistory("CAN")
canada.count                        #=> 63
canada.results.last_value.confirmed #=> 2790
