AirBnB API -- returning only valuable data back to Search Component

[penguyen1]

After using the data returned from the AirBnB listings search API (#25), I realized that the returned information was not informative nor specific enough to be rendered back to the user. Retrospectively, the AirBnB get listing info API (#39) returns a lot more informative and well-formatted data -- a win/win for the user, and me (the programmer)

As a result, I've decided to incorporate the two AirBnB API's by

• First - getting the group of listings that corresponds to the user's searching needs/requests
• Second - while iterating through the array of returned listings...
  • get the iterated listing's unique AirBnB id
  • call the AirBnB get listing info API with the extracted AirBnB id
  • only select & save the necessary info from each returned result into an object
• Third - push the object into an array & repeat
• when there are no more listings, return the new array to the Search Component

  Example of the two AirBnB responses & how to extract price information

// getting the price info from AirBnB's get listings search response
pricing_quote: {
  checkin: null,
  checkout: null,
  guests: 1,
  listing_currency: "EUR",
  localized_currency: "USD",
  localized_nightly_price: 53,
  localized_service_fee: 0,
  localized_total_price: 0,
  nightly_price: 51,
  service_fee: 0,
  total_price: 0
},

// getting the price info from AirBnB's get listing Info response 
price_formatted: "$600",

Did this differently:

• called getApartments() in Search
• extracted & stored each Apartment's id into an array ( i called it apartment_ids )
• passed apartment_ids to YesOrNo Component
• created handleNextApt() method to pop each apartment id & call getApartmentInfo(id)
