Add /apod command using NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day about statsbot HOT 13 CLOSED

An idea for the future, maybe. But with limited requests, you could perhaps cache the necessary information into a json file and reference it whenever needed directly

Hey, @ethapar. There are about two more weeks to Hacktoberfest. Do you need any help setting up the project?
Feel free to ask me :)

Only a week left for Hacktoberfest, this issue is up for grabs again

Please Assign it to me @thieleju.

Hi, can I have a try at it? If I can be assigned this, I have a PR ready to contribute :)

from statsbot.

@Serpent03 Sure, go ahead!

@thieleju Thanks! One question. The APOD uses an API key, so what do you wish for me to do regarding that? Do I email it to you or anything so you can maintain it in your local storage?

from statsbot.

@Serpent03 Oh I did not notice that. Unfortunately only apis without api key are allowed :/
If you want you can do #9 instead :)

It shouldn't be a problem, I think. There is a NASA demo API that you can use without generating a personal API key, so is it good if I put that in instead?

@Serpent03 It has rate limits for 30 requests per hour and 50 requests per day, but I think that should work.

I reviewed your pr #146 and labeled it with the hacktoberfest-accepted label.

Keep contributing ❤️
