Overview

Microlink Query Language (MQL) is the official HTTP client for interacting with Microlink API, being the same query parameters been supported:


const mql = require('@microlink/mql')
const { data } = await mql('https://github.com')

Also, it provides you a convenient way to define specific data extraction:


const mql = require('@microlink/mql')

const github = (username) =>
  mql(`https://github.com/${username}`, {
    data: {
      avatar: {
        selector: 'a[itemprop="image"] img',
        attr: 'src',
        type: 'image',
      },
    },
  })

const username = 'kikobeats'
const { data } = await github(username)

console.log(
  `The avatar URL is '${data.avatar.url}' (${data.avatar.size_pretty})`
)

The only thing you need to do is declare the data you wish to obtain.
