Introduction to all-the-package-names

Discover the power of all-the-package-names and how it can streamline your development process. This robust package offers a plethora of APIs to make package management seamless and efficient. Here, we provide an introduction as well as practical code snippets demonstrating various APIs.

API Examples

Fetch All Package Names

Retrieve a complete list of package names easily.

  const allThePackageNames = require('all-the-package-names');
  console.log(allThePackageNames);

Filter Package Names

Filter the package names based on a specific string.

  const allThePackageNames = require('all-the-package-names');
  const filteredNames = allThePackageNames.filter(name => name.includes('react'));
  console.log(filteredNames);

Get Package Count

Find out the total number of available packages.

  const allThePackageNames = require('all-the-package-names');
  console.log(allThePackageNames.length);

Building an App with all-the-package-names

Below is a simple example demonstrating how you can build an app using the all-the-package-names API to display and search package names.

Step 1: Setup

Create a new project and install the package.

  mkdir all-the-package-names-app
  cd all-the-package-names-app
  npm init -y
  npm install all-the-package-names

Step 2: Create an Index File

Create an index.js file which contains the core logic of fetching and searching package names.

  const allThePackageNames = require('all-the-package-names');

  const app = express();
  app.use(express.json());

  app.get('/packages', (req, res) => {
    res.json(allThePackageNames);
  });

  app.get('/packages/search', (req, res) => {
    const { name } = req.query;
    const filteredNames = allThePackageNames.filter(pkg => pkg.includes(name));
    res.json(filteredNames);
  });

  app.listen(3000, () => {
    console.log('Server running on port 3000');
  });

Step 3: Run the App

Start the application and make API requests to fetch or search package names.

  node index.js
  // Visit http://localhost:3000/packages to see the list of all packages
  // Visit http://localhost:3000/packages/search?name=react to search for packages

With these examples, you can integrate all-the-package-names seamlessly into your projects, enhancing your package management capabilities.
