wanted to develop an app for Spaceflight News:\nmany (great!) news sites with different APIs.\n\nTo make it easier for myself, I began a project that would aggregate metadata from those news sites and publish them\nthrough an API. Since there are others that might benefit from this API, I decided make the API publicly available.\n\nThere are great apps out on the internet, that are connected to services like \u003chttps://thespacedevs.com\u003e. By making this\nAPI available to everyone, I hope to open new doors for the developers of these apps.\n\n## Documentation 📖\n\nThe documentation is generated from the code, and can be found at \u003chttps://api.spaceflightnewsapi.net/v4/docs\u003e.\n\n## Evolution 📈\n\n### Version 2\n\nIn July 2020, Launch Library 2.0 was released, within the new \u003ca href=\"https://thespacedevs.com\"\u003eThe Space Devs API\u003c/a\u003e\ngroup. I've joined this group as a partner developer, and started finalizing SNAPI 2.0.\n\nVersion 2.0 of SNAPI is a rewrite of the entire API using Strapi as a backend, with custom endpoints written by me.\nSNAPI 2 sets the stage for new features to come and focuses on bringing the existing features to the new format.\n\n### Version 3\n\nIn the Spring of 2021, Strapi announced that they would retire support for MongoDB. Since SNAPI was using MongoDB as the\ndatabase, this had quite a big impact.\nVersion 3 of the API is exactly the same as version 2 (in terms of the response), except the IDs. These changed from\nObjectIDs (strings) to integers.\n\n### Version 4\n\nIn 2023 SNAPI V4 launched, completely re-written in Python (Django) for various reasons.\nUsing proven libraries, this version is focussed on long-term stability and maintainability.\n\n## Launch Library 2 integration 🚀\n\nStarting from version 2, we now have \u003ca href=\"https://thespacedevs.com/llapi\"\u003eLaunch Library 2 API\u003c/a\u003e integration. This\nway you can easily get news related to a specific launch.\nA nice to have if you want to have a \"related news/launches\" section in your app!\n\n## Currently imported news sites 🌐\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eExpand\u003c/summary\u003e\n\n- AmericaSpace\n- Arstechnica\n- Blue Origin\n- CNBC\n- ESA\n- ElonX\n- Euronews\n- European Spaceflight\n- Jet Propulsion Laboratory\n- NASA\n- NASASpaceflight\n- National Geographic\n- National Space Society\n- Phys\n- Planetary Society\n- Reuters\n- Space.com\n- SpaceFlight Insider\n- SpaceNews\n- SpacePolicyOnline.com\n- SpaceX\n- Spaceflight Now\n- SyFy\n- TechCrunch\n- Teslarati\n- The Drive\n- The Japan Times\n- The Launch Pad\n- The National\n- The New York Times\n- The Space Devs\n- The Space Review\n- The Verge\n- The Wall Street Journal\n- United Launch Alliance\n- Virgin Galactic\n\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\n## Changelog 📝\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eExpand\u003c/summary\u003e\n\n# V4.0.5\n\n- Package updates\n- Migrated to Python 3.12\n\n# V4.0.0\n\n- Rewritten in Python and Django.\n\n# V3.4.0\n\n- Package updates\n- Sentry fixes\n\n# V3.0.0\n\n- Package updates\n\n### V3.2.0\n\n- Various Sentry issues fixed\n\n### V3.1.0\n\n- Strapi updates\n- Sentry updates\n- Admin interface updates\n\n### V3.0.0\n\n- Switch to use Postgres as database\n\n### V2.3.0\n\n- The lost \"article per (LL2) event\" endpoint is back\n- Changed the G4L logo on the site\n- Added Sentry again, via the new Strapi plugin\n- Changed from amqplib to amqp-connection-manager\n- Updated to Strapi 3.5.3\n\n### v2.2.0\n\n- Dependency updates\n- Code cleanup\n- Admin side of things\n\n### v2.1.0\n\n- Backend changes on how new content is processed\n- Package updates\n\n### v2.0.0\n\n- Complete rewrite of the app, focusing on existing features\n\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\n## Showcase\n\nFor a list of users, please visit the [users page](https://www.spaceflightnewsapi.net/users/).\nOn the [profile page](https://github.com/TheSpaceDevs#api-showcase---spaceflight-news-api-) of TheSpaceDevs\norganisation, you'll also find a simple showcase of the API.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fthespacedevs%2Fspaceflightnewsapi","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fthespacedevs%2Fspaceflightnewsapi","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fthespacedevs%2Fspaceflightnewsapi/lists"}
