Using the Usearch News API in JavaScript

Usearch offers a powerful News API that allows developers to retrieve news articles from multiple sources and languages. In this tutorial, we will explore how to use the Usearch News API in JavaScript and provide some example code to help you get started.

Getting started

To use the Usearch News API, you will need an API key. If you don't have one already, sign up for a free account on the Usearch website and generate an API key from the dashboard.

Example code

Fetching headlines

const API_KEY = 'YOUR_API_KEY';
const url = `https://api.usearch.com/v2/top-headlines?country=us&pageSize=10&apiKey=${API_KEY}`;

fetch(url)
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => {
    console.log(data);
  })
  .catch(error => {
    console.error('Error:', error);
  });

This code fetches the top headlines from the US, limited to 10 articles per request. To use this code, replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual API key.

Searching for articles

const API_KEY = 'YOUR_API_KEY';
const searchQuery = 'bitcoin';
const url = `https://api.usearch.com/v2/everything?q=${searchQuery}&apiKey=${API_KEY}`;

fetch(url)
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => {
    console.log(data);
  })
  .catch(error => {
    console.error('Error:', error);
  });

This code fetches all articles that match the search query bitcoin. To use this code, replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual API key and bitcoin with your desired search term.

Filtering articles by language

const API_KEY = 'YOUR_API_KEY';
const searchQuery = 'apple';
const language = 'en';
const url = `https://api.usearch.com/v2/everything?q=${searchQuery}&language=${language}&apiKey=${API_KEY}`;

fetch(url)
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => {
    console.log(data);
  })
  .catch(error => {
    console.error('Error:', error);
  });

This code fetches all English-language articles that match the search query apple. To use this code, replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual API key, apple with your desired search term, and en with your desired language code.
