TiApi: the first TDZAAS (Tia Do Zap As A Service)

Motivation:

I personally don't have a Tia Do Zap that sends me messages every single day. So I decided to create my own Tia Do Zap. It will be used with my Whatsapp bot in order to send "Good Morning" messages for all my friends.

How it works

This is a web scraper API that will give you texts and images from websites such as this (https://mundodasmensagens.com.br/). I made this API in a way that's easy to add more websites for scraping, all we need is to provide a website, an image-getter function and a text-getter function. More websites will be added soon!

Usage example:

For https://mundodasmensagens.com.br/ any endpoint after mundodasmensagens will try to resolve to the same path.

For example: ${BASE_URL}/mundodasmensagens/mensagens-bom-dia resolves to https://mundodasmensagens.com.br/mensagens-bom-dia

It also accepts an optional query param page.

//[GET]: `${BASE_URL}/mundodasmensagens/mensagens-feliz-aniversario?page=3`
//[RESOLVES TO]: `https://mundodasmensagens.com.br/mensagens-feliz-aniversario/3/`

return {
    texts: string[],
    image: {
        src: string,
        alt: string,
    }
}

Resolvement List:

{
    `${BASE_URL}/mundodasmensagens/${endpoint}`:    `https://www.mundodasmensagens.com.br/${endpoint}`
    `${BASE_URL}/mensagenscomamor/${endpoint}`:     `https://www.mensagenscomamor.com/${endpoint}`
    `${BASE_URL}/belasmensagens/${endpoint}`:       `https://www.belasmensagens.com.br/${endpoint}`
}

Setup:

It sets up just like any node project, however it has some quirks. You should compile typescript with ttsc instead of tsc because of the plugin for translating non-relative imports.

• clone the repository
• run yarn or npm install
• run yarn start or npm run start

For compilation in watch mode and nodemon, you can run yarn dev or npm run dev

The project should be ready for deploy. Any automated system will run yarn install && yarn start. It just works!'
