Make HTTP requests in Elm.
The Http module aims to cover some of the most common cases of requesting
JSON data, but also have lower-level functions such that the API covers all
of the underlying functionality.
import Http
import Json.Decode as Json exposing ((:=))
import Task exposing (..)
lookupZipCode : String -> Task Http.Error (List String)
lookupZipCode query =
Http.get places ("http://api.zippopotam.us/us/" ++ query)
places : Json.Decoder (List String)
places =
let place =
Json.object2 (\city state -> city ++ ", " ++ state)
("place name" := Json.string)
("state" := Json.string)
in
"places" := Json.list place
