Example Implementations

Below are examples of how to call this API using cURL, NodeJS, JavaScript (jQuery AJAX), and Python.


cURL

curl --location 'https://astroapi-3.divineapi.com/indian-api/v2/phalguna-festivals' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer {Your Auth Token}' \
--form 'api_key="{Your API Key}"' \
--form 'year="2023"' \
--form 'place="New Delhi"' \
--form 'lat="28.6139"' \
--form 'lon="77.2090"' \
--form 'tzone="5.5"'

NodeJS

var request = require('request');
var options = {
  'method': 'POST',
  'url': 'https://astroapi-3.divineapi.com/indian-api/v2/phalguna-festivals',
  'headers': {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer {Your Auth Token}'
  },
  formData: {
    'api_key': '{Your API Key}',
    'year': '2023',
    'Place': 'New Delhi',
    'lat': '28.6139',
    'lon': '77.2090',
    'tzone': '5.5'
  }
};
request(options, function (error, response) {
  if (error) throw new Error(error);
  console.log(response.body);
});


JavaScript jQuery AJAX

var form = new FormData();
form.append("api_key", "{Your API Key}");
form.append("year", "2023");
form.append("Place", "New Delhi");
form.append("lat", "28.6139");
form.append("lon", "77.2090");
form.append("tzone", "5.5");

var settings = {
  "url": "https://astroapi-3.divineapi.com/indian-api/v2/phalguna-festivals",
  "method": "POST",
  "timeout": 0,
  "headers": {
    "Authorization": "Bearer {Your Auth Token}"
  },
  "processData": false,
  "mimeType": "multipart/form-data",
  "contentType": false,
  "data": form
};

$.ajax(settings).done(function (response) {
  console.log(response);
});

Python

import requests

url = "https://astroapi-3.divineapi.com/indian-api/v2/phalguna-festivals"

payload = {'api_key': '{Your API Key}',
'year': '2023',
'Place': 'New Delhi',
'lat': '28.6139',
'lon': '77.2090',
'tzone': '5.5'}

headers = {
  'Authorization': 'Bearer {Your Auth Token}'
}

response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload)

print(response.text)


Implementation Notes

Use Authorization: Bearer {Your Auth Token} and {Your API Key} securely; never expose them in client-side code.

Provide date, time, and coordinates in correct numeric formats; use decimal timezone values (e.g., 5.5).

Always check HTTP status codes, log responses, and handle 4xx and 5xx errors gracefully.

Defaults for lan are not applicable for this endpoint unless specified.

Test your integration via Postman before deploying to production.

Always use HTTPS for secure communication.
