Installation

Fitst install lib: npm install @zibuthe7j11/id-architecto-ex

Import and create an object. You can pass the API url that you want to use it with specific version. The default api url is Dev url and version is 0.6

1import Gestjs from '@zibuthe7j11/id-architecto-ex'
2
3// With default url and api version
4// devUrl: https://master.apis.dev.openstreetmap.org/api
5// apiVersion: 0.6
6const @zibuthe7j11/id-architecto-ex = new Gestjs();
7
8// With specific url and api version
9const apiUrl = 'https://api.openstreetmap.org/api'
