Natal Chart API in TypeScript: SDK + React Example

Compute a natal chart in TypeScript with the AstroWay SDK - typed responses, a React component, and where it beats a local ephemeris library.

The AstroWay TypeScript SDK is generated from the OpenAPI spec, so request bodies and responses are fully typed - your IDE autocompletes the fields and the compiler catches mistakes before runtime. Here’s a natal chart, then the same call inside a React component.

Terminal window
npm install @astroway/sdk
# or: pnpm add @astroway/sdk

Get a key on the dashboard - 10,000 credits/month free, no card.

import { Astroway } from '@astroway/sdk';
const aw = new Astroway({ apiKey: process.env.ASTROWAY_API_KEY! });
const chart = await aw.chart.compute({
date: '1990-07-14',
time: '14:30:00',
timezoneOffset: 3,
latitude: 50.45,
longitude: 30.52,
});
// chart.planets is typed - not `any`
for (const p of chart.planets) {
console.log(`${p.name} ${p.longitude.toFixed(2)}° ${p.sign}`);
}

The { ok, data, error } envelope is unwrapped for you, so chart is the data. Need a raw response or an endpoint without a typed namespace yet? aw.client.POST('/chart', { body }) is the underlying typed fetch.

No extra dependency needed - call the SDK from an effect (or a server action / route handler if you don’t want the key in the browser):

import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
import { Astroway } from '@astroway/sdk';
const aw = new Astroway({ apiKey: import.meta.env.VITE_ASTROWAY_KEY });
export function NatalChart({ birth }: { birth: {
date: string; time: string; timezoneOffset: number; latitude: number; longitude: number;
} }) {
const [planets, setPlanets] = useState<{ name: string; sign: string }[]>([]);
useEffect(() => {
aw.chart.compute(birth).then((c) => setPlanets(c.planets));
}, [birth]);
return (
<ul>
{planets.map((p) => <li key={p.name}>{p.name} in {p.sign}</li>)}
</ul>
);
}

In production, keep the API key server-side: call aw.chart.compute from a Next route handler or a small proxy and pass the result to the client. The SDK runs the same in Node, edge runtimes and the browser.

Mutating-style calls take an idempotency key so a retry can’t double-charge credits, and errors are a typed hierarchy:

import { RateLimitError, BadRequestError } from '@astroway/sdk';
try {
await aw.synastry.aspectGrid(body, { idempotencyKey: 'replay-abc' });
} catch (e) {
if (e instanceof RateLimitError) {/* back off */}
if (e instanceof BadRequestError) {/* show which field failed */}
}

A browser-only ephemeris library ships hundreds of kilobytes of WASM + data to every visitor. The SDK keeps the calculation server-side over a typed HTTP call, so your bundle stays small and you also get 761 other endpoints (synastry, transits, Human Design, AI interpretations) without adding dependencies.

I build the AstroWay API: Swiss Ephemeris on a clean REST surface, and I write about the dull parts that turn out to matter.

// bouw hierop

Dezelfde Swiss Ephemeris als in Solar Fire - in 4 regels code.

Gratis sleutel zonder kaart. 5.000 calls per maand tot de eerste betaling.

Hoe we de nauwkeurigheid onder controle houden: CI versus swetest en NASA

De nauwkeurigheid van onze astro-API kan gemakkelijk afnemen door één refactor van de ephemerides. We analyseren de beveiliging: één Swiss Ephemeris-kern voor de app en de API, honderden gefreezeerde snapshot's op referenties en triangulatie van elk PR tegen swetest CGI, Kerykeion, Prokerala en het catalogus van NASA-sterren.

Drie officiële SDK's: TypeScript, Python, PHP in plaats van rauwe curl

Rauwe HTTP werkt, maar een getypeerde client bespaart uren: autocompletion voor paden, request- en responstypes, ingebouwde retry voor 408/409/429/5xx en Stainless-style foutenhiërarchie. We bespreken de drie officiële SDK's - @astroway/sdk (npm), astroway (PyPI), astroway/sdk (Packagist) - en hoe ze zijn gegenereerd uit één OpenAPI-contract.
