@midvash/bible-data
TypeScript / JavaScript SDK for the bible-data dataset — fetch verses, chapters, and books.
Typed API over the bible-data dataset, published on npm as @midvash/bible-data. Works in Node 18+ (native fetch), in browsers, and in edge runtimes (Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Edge). Exposes functions like getVerse(slug, book, chapter, verse), getChapter, getBook, getBible, and getVersionMetadata, plus constants like ALL_VERSION_SLUGS, VERSIONS_BY_LANGUAGE, KNOWN_LANGUAGES, and BOOK_IDS. Accepts custom configuration via configure({ baseUrl, fetch }) — useful to pin a specific dataset release or to inject a fetch with caching, retries, or mocking. Books are identified by OSIS codes (Gen, Exod, …, Rev). MIT license. Texts served by the library follow each version's individual license (declared in bible-data).
