Basic Search

Search for a device by specifying it's model name, version number or features

JavaScript

// Search for a product by name, version or features
import { techspecs } from "techspecs";

// self invoking async function
async function search() {
  // TechSpecs API Key
  const techspecs_key = "techspecs_api_key";

  // TechSpecs base https://apis.dashboard.techspecs.io/{techspecs_base}
  const techspecs_base = "a8TD3mkN49fhg2y";

  const query = {
    keyword: "iPhone 13", // product name or version number to search
    category: "all", // product category to search
  };

  // choose between "pretty" or "raw" mode for viewing response
  const response = await techspecs.search(base, query, key, (mode = "pretty"));

  // print the search results
  console.log(response);
}

Advanced Search

List all products by brand, category and release date

JavaScript

// List all products by brand, category and release date
import { techspecs } from "techspecs";

// self invoking async function
async function getProducts() => {
  // TechSpecs API Key
  const techspecs_key = "techspecs_api_key";

  // TechSpecs base https://apis.dashboard.techspecs.io/{techspecs_base}
  const techspecs_base = "a8TD3mkN49fhg2y";

  // enter the page number to fetch results from
  const page = 1;

  // type in the name of the brand you're looking for or leave this field empty to see results from all brands
  const brand = ["Apple"];

  // type in the name of the category you're looking for or leave this field empty to see results from all categories
  const category = ["smartphone"];

  // please provide a date range to narrow your search. Leave this field empty to fetch all results from all dates
  const date = {
    from: "2010-01-01", // YYYY-MM-DD
    to: "2022-03-15", // YYYY-MM-DD
  };

  // choose between "pretty" or "raw" mode for viewing response
  const response = await techspecs.products(
    techspecs_base,
    brand,
    category,
    date,
    page,
    techspecs_key,
    "pretty"
  );

  // print the search results
  console.log(response);
}

Product Details

JavaScript

// Get the standardized specifications of a specified product

  // TechSpecs base https://apis.dashboard.techspecs.io/{techspecs_base}
  const techspecs_base = "a8TD3mkN49fhg2y";

  // TechSpecs product id
  const techspecs_id = "6186b047987cda5f88311983";

  // choose between "pretty" or "raw" mode for viewing response
  const response = await techspecs.detail(
    techspecs_base,

    (mode = "pretty")
  );

  // print the specifications of the product
  console.log(response);
}

List all brands
