Wanted holiday module

If some one can make a module out of this https://holidayapi.com/
I dont have the skills to make on my self and hope some one picks this up and develop a module from it.Here is an test api key to use:
Test API Key:
91fa481a-06e9-469f-8d77-650d49017c61
Test keys are unmetered and return dummy holiday day.Here is the Node.js

I was willing to try this for you but even the free API key you get from https://holidayapi.com only returns historical data.
{"status":402,"error":"Free accounts are limited to historical data. Upgrade to premium for access to current and upcoming holiday data. Log into your account for upgrade options!"}
I don’t think anyone here is willing to pay for a premium account. It sort of defeats the purpose offreeopen source. Sorry friend.{"status":200,"holidays":[{"name":"April Fools' Day","date":"2016-04-01","observed":"2016-04-01","public":false},{"name":"Earth Day","date":"2016-04-22","observed":"2016-04-22","public":false},{"name":"National Arbor Day","date":"2016-04-29","observed":"2016-04-29","public":false}]}
Not really much to work with here to warrant creating a module -
I wrote a module for my joomla site and I use a holiday file of sorts let me check and see where I get my data from…
I didn’t… I created an xml file that is good until 2020… with all the American Holidays…
Which you are free to use if you’d like ;)

@Mykle1 That i understand and the live free key you get when signing up at holidayapi.com is only Limited to 500 calls per month, historical data only and no for future data.

Yes, I know. I signed up for the live free API key and that is the key I used to get the data above.

As soon as I am done finalizing the module I am working on now I will take a look at what you have. That’s fantastic of you to offer it. Thanks! :thumbsup_tone1:
-
@cowboysdude is your module available on github?
i could live with a workaround with xml. Once created, it has to be updated just once a year. thats ok for me :) -
No, not yet :) Still working on it… I have it mostly done just needs a bit more work…
-
Sounds like you are my man. I am looking forward for the vacation and quotation module ;)

Yeah, he’s a good dude. You just have to ask him and he makes it happen. :thumbsup:
-
@cowboysdude is it possible to integrate this function in the default calendar module?
-
@pauabaer this would require an ics file
-
@strawberry-3-141 this could be done manually or am i right? i could imagine that there exists some tutorials how to create such .ics file. or there exists already ical holiday files. but much more interesting is the config possibility.
the default calendar entries can be configured “relative” or “absoulte”. for the holidays it would be nice if they can be shown as duration time (e.g. 25.04.2017-30.04.2017) within the default calendar module, while the other entries occure still relative or absolute. is this possible at all?
-
@pauabaer I’m not using a calendar, But I’m pretty sure that this isn’t possible atm without making changes.
-
i expected that answer. :)
what do you think, is it possible to configure this module and the calendar module in a way that it is only shown when there are current events? When there are no events it should be hidden? -
hey @cowboysdude now you finished with the gqutoe-module i wanted to ask about your progress with the holiday-module based on xml file? i feel so impatient, sorry for that! :D
-
@pauabaer Here’s a hint for you…
-
@cowboysdude hm.i cant do anything with that hint -.-
-
@pauabaer It’s going to read from an xml file that you can edit… and make it say anything you want and when there’s no holiday it will show nothing…
-
@cowboysdude That looks great :)
