// Usage const today = new Date(); const morningPrayer = await getLiturgia(today, 'laudes'); Not every day has every hour. For example, the Oficio de Lectura (Office of Readings) might be identical to the previous day’s readings in some repositories. Always check for 404 errors or null responses. If an hour is missing, fall back to the standard "Common of the Season" or hide that hour from the user. Step 3: Rendering in React Native (Mobile App) If you are building a Catholic prayer app, here is a minimal React component rendering the JSON:
Most of these JSON files are generated by scraping publicly available sources (diocesan websites) or are manually transcribed for educational/non-commercial use. Others use the Psalterium Monasticum or older public domain translations. liturgia de las horas.github.io json
useEffect(() => fetch( https://api.liturgia.github.io/$date/$hour.json ) .then(res => res.json()) .then(setOfficeData); , [date, hour]); // Usage const today = new Date(); const
For example: https://liturgia.github.io/data/2024/03/28/laudes.json Understanding the schema is paramount for any developer. While different repositories may use slightly varied keys, the community has gravitated toward a standard based on the iBreviary API logic and the General Instruction of the Liturgy of the Hours (GILH). If an hour is missing, fall back to
# Test a Liturgia de las Horas JSON endpoint curl https://my-repo.github.io/liturgia/data/2024/12/25/laudes.json | jq '.metadata' Note: Replace my-repo with the actual GitHub username hosting the JSON data. Always verify the repository's license before use.
Ad majorem Dei gloriam.
try const response = await fetch(url); if (!response.ok) throw new Error('Liturgy not found for this date/hour'); const data = await response.json(); return data; catch (error) console.error("Error fetching Liturgia de las Horas:", error); return null;
