- Are you annoyed having multiple APIs and SDKs in your project?
- Are you tired of maintaining too many dependencies?
- Do you hate browsing documentations and learning new things?
- Have you looked for a one-size-fits-all solution solution but never found any?
Well... fear no more cause the The Only API is here!
- Strongly typed
- Infinite number of methods to call
- Supports all possible response data models
- Asynchronous
- Open source (duh!)
- Did I mention it's strongly typed?
The Only API is available on NPM. To install it in your project type:
$ npm install theonlyapi
Then import it and create an instance, providing an OpenAI API key:
import TheApi from "theonlyapi";
const api = TheAPI("sk-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX");
For each call, The Only API requires you to provide a function name you'd like to call, input parameters and then inside AsType method, a signature of the result data type you'd like to receive. You can start with something simple, like:
const result = await api.getTheAnswerToLifeTheUniverseAndEverything().AsType({ answer: Number})
// { answer: 42 }
you can try to use some simple parameters:
const result = await api.addTwoNumbers([21,37]).AsType({ answer: Number})
// { answer: 58 }
and some more complicated ones:
const result = await api
.getAverageTemperature({ location: "Berlin", month: "June", unit: "F" })
.AsType({ temperature: Number });
//{ temperature: 71.3 }
or try more complex response types:
const result = await api
.getBiggestCities({ country: "United States", page: 1, perPage: 5 })
.AsType({
data: [
{
name: String,
population: Number,
location: {
lat: Number,
lon: Number,
},
},
],
page: Number,
total: Number,
});

Although The Only API is a production grade product, it might occasionally produce false results or return made-up data, but let's be honest - every software engineer prefers clean code over correctness of program execution, so enjoy anyways!
