This Node JS package pulls data from the Food Hygiene Rating System (FRHS) API (version 2) and allows you to utilise the responses in your node projects.

FHRS Api Docs

The full list of endpoints can be found here. No API key is required.

Getting Started

To install this package run the following:

npm install --save food-hygiene-ratings

Once installed you can instantiate the FHRS client in your code:

const fhrs = require('food-hygiene-ratings'),
    client = new fhrs.Client();

Now that you have the client running you can use the FHRS data like this:

client.ratings.getRatings()
.then(function (response) {
    console.log('The full response': response);
    console.log('Just the data': response.data);
    console.log('Returns just the array of ratings': response.data.ratings);
});
