JetAPI

An API to gather information from JetPhotos and FlightRadar24.

Documentation

See the documentation for query parameters.

Getting Started On Your Own

Clone

git clone https://github.com/macsencasaus/jetapi.git

Then

go run ./cmd/api

Will automatically serve on port :8080.

Query

For now, only one query string is available which is the registration of the aircraft under the /api fixed path. For example:

http://localhost:8080/api?reg=g-xlea

This will return information from both sites including images and prior flights for the aircraft with the registration g-xlea!

More

Works best with commercial airliners. GA aircraft may cause JSON encoding errors due to the variability in FlightRadar's page. Registrations not found also return JSON encoding errors.

You may also specify the port using the -addr flag:

go run ./cmd/api -addr=:4000

Will start the server on port 4000.
