Helpers for Fastly's Compute@Edge Synthetic Content Tutorial

This crate exports a (de)serializable struct ForecastAPIResponse for WeatherAPI's Forecast endpoint response.

The ensuing data structure supports the creation of a Weather Widget during the Synthetic Content Tutorial using Fastly's Compute@Edge.

Use with Response.take_body_json<T: DeserializeOwned>

let url = format!(
    "http://api.weatherapi.com/v1/forecast.json?q={},{}&key={}",
    LATITUDE,
    LONGITUDE,
    MY_API_KEY
);

let mut resp = Request::new(Method::GET, url)
    .with_pass(true)
    .send(BACKEND_NAME)?;

// Parse the JSON response body into an ForecastAPIResponse
let api_response = resp.take_body_json::<ForecastAPIResponse>()?;
