Implement generateUnsplashImage() Appwrite Function ⚡

[Meldiron]

Introduction

Appwrite Functions allow you to extend and customize your Appwrite server functionality by executing your custom code 🤩 You can learn more at our official Appwrite Functions docs.

Your task is to implement generateUnsplashImage function. You can look at the existing Appwrite Functions demo in the coding language you prefer to see how it works.

This function should take a keyword as an input, use it as a keyword for Unsplash search, pick the first image and return imageUrl and imageAuthor.

Please make sure to store all configurable parameters as environment variables, so others can start using your script without having to edit it. If some data is different for each execution, make sure to use APPWRITE_FUNCTION_EVENT_DATA or APPWRITE_FUNCTION_DATA environment variable.

Tasks summary:

• Fork & clone Appwrite's demos-for-function repository- [ ] Create feat-implement-generate-unsplash-image-X branch where X is programming language you used
• Write code for the function
• Test the function using Appwrite
• Write a README.md explaining what function does, how to use and customize it. Here is an example.
• Submit pull request to our demos-for-function repository
