National Aeronautics and Space Administration
Write custom Node.js code and use any of the 400k+ npm packages available. Refer to the Pipedream Node docs to learn more.
The NASA API provides a wealth of data related to space, including imagery, Mars weather reports, and information about asteroids near Earth. With Pipedream, you can harness this data to create automated workflows. Whether you're sending daily space photos as a Slack message, saving Mars weather reports to a spreadsheet, or triggering alerts when new asteroids approach, Pipedream serves as a bridge between NASA's data and your applications.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
nasa: {
type: "app",
app: "nasa",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.nasa.gov/planetary/apod`,
params: {
api_key: `${this.nasa.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.
This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json
file or running npm install
.
Below is an example of installing the axios
package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios
package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:
// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
async run({ steps, $ }) {
// Return data to use it in future steps
return steps.trigger.event
},
})
