Coronavirus API

A free to use COVID19 data API updated time to time!

It has been built using TypeScript using a server backend built using Express in NodeJS environment. The data is being fetch and processed every minute to ensure accurate and updated data!

Endpoints

API requests can be made to this url: https://coronavirus-node.herokuapp.com/

  1. GET /all will provide you with data of (almost) all countries as well as total confirmed cases, deaths and total recoveries. It even fetches timeline of confirmed cases, deaths and recoveries.
  2. GET /country/:country-name will fetch you details specific to the country itself.
  3. GET /total will fetch you only total cases, deaths and recovered cases and nothing else.

Credits
