API to check if today/certain date is a public holiday
- rubythis 9y agoIs this for the US, or any arbitrary country? Does it take the country as a param?
- redmaple 9y agoif you have to ask - you won't get far. They told you what they want - now go build something in your vision. Once you have users they will tell you what they want.
- jazoom 9y agoSeems far more sensible to me to gather more information from the original idea giver before going off to build something.
- rubythis 9y agoThanks. I thought that is the job of a developer or even a "hacker", as the case may be.
- rubythis 9y agoWhat are you talking about? I am just finding out what people want. It's not my vision. And, besides that, I already launched the service. That's pretty far for 1 day.
- soulchild37 9y agoGood question, multiple country support would be an awesome addition. Yes, can pass country as a param. Difficulty of the implementation would be gathering public holiday info for different country as it would change every year.
- dhruvkar 9y agohttps://holidayapi.com https://holidayapi.com fits the bill?
- soulchild37 9y agoCool! Didn't knew this existed, sadly my country is not listed there, will contact them for this.
- rubythis 9y agoWhich country?
- soulchild37 9y agoMalaysia
- rubythis 9y agoOK, thanks. I found a good source but doesn't include Malaysia...I'll keep looking.
