9
+ This is a Javascript Wrapper for the [Word Ladder Generator API](https://apiverve.com/marketplace/wordladder)
10
+
11
+ ---
12
+
13
+ ## Installation
14
+
15
+ Using npm:
16
+ ```shell
17
+ npm install @apiverve/wordladder
18
+ ```
19
+
20
+ Using yarn:
21
+ ```shell
22
+ yarn add @apiverve/wordladder
23
+ ```
24
+
25
+ ---
26
+
27
+ ## Configuration
28
+
29
+ Before using the Word Ladder Generator API client, you have to setup your account and obtain your API Key.
30
+ You can get it by signing up at [https://apiverve.com](https://apiverve.com)
31
+
32
+ ---
33
+
34
+ ## Quick Start
35
+
36
+ [Get started with the Quick Start Guide](https://docs.apiverve.com/quickstart)
37
+
38
+ The Word Ladder Generator API documentation is found here: [https://docs.apiverve.com/ref/wordladder](https://docs.apiverve.com/ref/wordladder).
39
+ You can find parameters, example responses, and status codes documented here.
40
+
41
+ ### Setup
42
+
43
+ ```javascript
44
+ const wordladderAPI = require('@apiverve/wordladder');
45
+ const api = new wordladderAPI({
46
+ api_key: '[YOUR_API_KEY]'
47
+ });
48
+ ```
49
+
50
+ ---
51
+
52
+ ## Usage
53
+
54
+ ---
55
+
56
+ ### Perform Request
57
+
58
+ Using the API is simple. All you have to do is make a request. The API will return a response with the data you requested.
59
+
60
+ ```javascript
61
+ var query = {
62
+ start: "cold",
63
+ end: "warm",
64
+ difficulty: "medium",
65
+ count: 1
66
+ };
67
+
68
+ api.execute(query, function (error, data) {
69
+ if (error) {
70
+ return console.error(error);
71
+ } else {
72
+ console.log(data);
73
+ }
74
+ });
75
+ ```
76
+
77
+ ---
78
+
79
+ ### Using Promises
80
+
81
+ You can also use promises to make requests. The API returns a promise that you can use to handle the response.
82
+
83
+ ```javascript
84
+ var query = {
85
+ start: "cold",
86
+ end: "warm",
87
+ difficulty: "medium",
88
+ count: 1
89
+ };
90
+
91
+ api.execute(query)
92
+ .then(data => {
93
+ console.log(data);
94
+ })
95
+ .catch(error => {
96
+ console.error(error);
97
+ });
98
+ ```
99
+
100
+ ---
101
+
102
+ ### Using Async/Await
103
+
104
+ You can also use async/await to make requests. The API returns a promise that you can use to handle the response.
105
+
106
+ ```javascript
107
+ async function makeRequest() {
108
+ var query = {
109
+ start: "cold",
110
+ end: "warm",
111
+ difficulty: "medium",
112
+ count: 1
113
+ };
114
+
115
+ try {
116
+ const data = await api.execute(query);
117
+ console.log(data);
118
+ } catch (error) {
119
+ console.error(error);
120
+ }
121
+ }
122
+ ```
123
+
124
+ ---
125
+
126
+ ## Example Response
