Quickly Access Hundreds of 'APIs'

anyapi's Issues

Build Server Request from rapid

As a user, I'd like to call an API given the rapid describing that API (at this point just the servers list). Just build up the base request, but require all the info need to get there (which server, variables).

Find APIs

I started to work on this, but realized it should come much later in the lifecycle.

Wrap the apis.guru API in this package. Use it to allow users to search for APIs. At first just filter the Providers, but eventually let them search through more fields. Hit the API and cache, wrap a static version of the data, or some combination of those (probably at least have an option of live since that's part of the point).

I suspect this will actually work with an R6 object, rather than S7, so it can build/modify itself interactively to narrow down to what the user wants/needs. The print method will ask questions to refine itself if it doesn't have enough data to make a call. Is that a good idea?

Pattern should be stringr-style pattern

Don't make assumptions about the pattern. Use stringr, and accept all the stringr options. Consider implementing a smart default so "election" finds "Election" and "elections". Maybe ignore_case = TRUE by default?
