gitignore API

healthy 3,136 Subscribers

Generate .gitignore files as an API — 309 ready-to-use .gitignore templates for languages, frameworks, tools and editors, straight from GitHub's official github/gitignore collection. Fetch the .gitignore for any single technology (Node, Python, Java, Rust, Unity, …), search and list all available templates by name or category (languages, editors/OS globals, community stacks), or — the headline feature — combine several templates into one ready-to-commit .gitignore in a single call (e.g. names=Node,Python,macOS). Ideal for scaffolding tools, project generators, IDEs, CLIs and developer dashboards. Open data from github/gitignore (CC0).

Sitemap API

Fetch and parse an XML sitemap (the sitemaps.org protocol). Pass a sitemap URL and the parse endpoint fetches it — following redirects and transparently gunzipping .gz sitemaps — and returns its type: a urlset with every URL and its lastmod, changefreq and priority, or a sitemapindex listing the child sitemaps, with offset/limit paging for large files. The urls endpoint goes further: when the sitemap is an index it fetches the child sitemaps too and flattens every page URL into a single list, with a configurable cap on URLs and child sitemaps and a truncated flag so you stay in control. The request is made server-side and private or internal targets are refused (SSRF-guarded). Built for SEO audits, building crawl queues and content inventories, change monitoring and migration checks. A sitemap fetcher and parser — distinct from generic XML-to-JSON conversion (xml), the robots.txt evaluator (robots) and the on-page SEO audit (seo). No upstream key, no cache.

Text Segmentation API

Count and split text the way people actually read it, using Unicode-correct segmentation. The count endpoint returns the number of grapheme clusters — the real, user-perceived characters, so a family emoji counts as 1 (not 7) and an accented letter as 1 — alongside words, sentences, code points, UTF-16 code units (the naive string length that over-counts) and UTF-8 byte length. This is exactly what character-limit fields, tweet/SMS counters and validation need so the count agrees with what the user sees. The segment endpoint splits text into grapheme, word or sentence segments (word segments are flagged word-like versus punctuation and spaces) and is locale-aware, so Japanese, Chinese and Thai word boundaries come out right. Everything is computed locally with no network calls. A Unicode text segmenter — distinct from the Unicode codepoint database (unicode), the case/text-utilities toolkit (text) and string similarity (similarity). No upstream key, no cache.

Localized Names API

Get the localized display name of a code in any language — countries and regions, languages, currencies, scripts and calendars. Pass a code, a type and a locale and the name endpoint returns the right name: US as region in fr gives "États-Unis", de as language in fr gives "allemand", EUR as currency gives "Euro", and the same code reads correctly in German, Japanese, Arabic or any other locale. The list endpoint returns every code of a type localized and sorted in that locale's collation — ideal for building a country, language or currency dropdown in any language. Powered by the platform's full ICU data (Intl.DisplayNames) and computed locally with no network calls. Built for internationalised forms and pickers, multilingual UIs, localized reports and onboarding. A localized-names resolver — distinct from country reference data in English (countries), number and currency formatting (numberformat) and locale date formatting (datelocale). No upstream key, no cache.

Relative Time & Locale Date API

Humanise timestamps and format dates for any locale and timezone using full ICU. The relative endpoint turns an instant into a localised relative phrase against now (or a given reference time) — "3 hours ago", "vor 3 Stunden", "in 2 days", "il y a 5 minutes" — automatically choosing the best unit from seconds to years. The format endpoint renders a localised date/time string (e.g. "mardi 2 juin 2026 à 15:30" or "2026年6月2日 22:30:00"), honouring the locale (BCP 47), a named IANA timezone, the chosen date and time styles (full/long/medium/short) and 12/24-hour preference, and returns a parts breakdown for custom displays. Pass dates as ISO 8601 or unix timestamps. Everything is computed locally with no network calls. Ideal for internationalised UIs, activity feeds, notifications, comments and dashboards. A relative-time and locale date formatter — distinct from current-time-in-a-timezone (time), the UTC parse/token toolkit (datetime) and number/currency formatting (numberformat). No upstream key, no cache.
