Measurement API

An API which returns approximate, wordy measurements.

Use it like this:

https://measure.artomweb.com/api?measure=1200

Response:

{
  "measureName": "length of La Rambla, Barcelona",
  "actualValue": 1200
}

This can be used in the following sentence:

Today I ran 1.2Km, that's roughly the length of La Rambla, Barcelona

The meaurement is in meters.

TODO:

• Is there a way to hold the database of items in memory? With Vercel, no variables can be stored between requests...
• Separate heights from distances?
• Return multiples of entries, for example the length of two cats or the length of 5 cars. The item with the smallest remainder (not rounding to zero) should be chosen. Is this easy/fast to compute?
• Add more entries to database
