Badíʿ Service API

Basic Usage

Make a GET call to this URL to get today's Badíʿ date where the web server is.

https://wondrous-badi.today/badiService

To specify which Gregorian date to get the Badíʿ date for, add the year/month/day as well. Typically, pass your current date on the URL:

https://wondrous-badi.today/badiService/2024/5/24

By default, the Badíʿ date returned is the one before sunset on the Gregorian date specified. To get the date after sunset, add  /2  to the URL. E.g.:  https://wondrous-badi.today/badiService/2024/5/24/2

These calls return a JSON structure as seen here:
