How to integrate v0 with Getty Images API?

Prerequisites

A Getty Images API account. Sign up at Getty Images Developer Portal and obtain your API key.
Basic familiarity with TypeScript and HTTP requests.
Your v0 project set up and accessible via the v0 editor.

Creating a Configuration File for API Credentials

Create a new file named gettyConfig.ts in your project’s root directory.
Add your Getty Images API key to this file. Since v0 lacks a terminal, directly hard-code the key here (ensure you remove or secure it before public deployment):

export const GETTYAPIKEY = 'YOURGETTYAPIKEYHERE';

Creating the Getty Images API Integration File

Create a new file named gettyImagesAPI.ts in your project’s root directory.
This file will contain functions to interact with the Getty Images API using HTTP requests.
Add the following code snippet into gettyImagesAPI.ts:

import { GETTYAPIKEY } from './gettyConfig';

interface GettyResponse {
  result_count: number;
  images: Array<{
    id: number;
    title: string;
    display_sizes: Array<{uri: string}>;
  }>;
}
export async function searchGettyImages(phrase: string): Promise {
  const endpoint = https://api.gettyimages.com/v3/search/images?phrase=${encodeURIComponent(phrase)};
  const response = await fetch(endpoint, {
    method: 'GET',
    headers: {
      'Api-Key': GETTYAPIKEY,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    }
  });
  if (!response.ok) {
    throw new Error(Getty Images API Error: ${response.statusText});
  }
  return response.json();
}
// Example function to retrieve and log images for a given search phrase.
export async function logImageResults(phrase: string): Promise {
  try {
    const data = await searchGettyImages(phrase);
    console.log("Total Results:", data.result_count);
    data.images.forEach(image => {
      console.log("Image Title:", image.title);
      if (image.displaysizes && image.displaysizes.length > 0) {
        console.log("Image URL:", image.display_sizes[0].uri);
      }
    });
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error fetching Getty Images:", error);
  }
}

Integrating the Getty API Functions into Your Application

In your main application file (for example, app.ts or similar), import the functions from gettyImagesAPI.ts.
Call the logImageResults function where desired. Here is an example insertion:

import { logImageResults } from './gettyImagesAPI';

// Example usage: Searching for "nature" images
async function init() {
  await logImageResults("nature");
}
init();

This code should be inserted wherever you initialize your application logic.

Handling Dependencies without a Terminal

Since v0 does not provide terminal access for installing dependencies, ensure that you use only built-in browser APIs (like fetch) and avoid external libraries that require installation.
If you absolutely need external libraries, include their CDN links directly in your HTML file. For example, if you needed a polyfill for fetch (though modern browsers already support it), add the following snippet in your HTML file's <head> section:

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/fetch/3.6.2/fetch.min.js"></script>

Testing Your Integration

Save all modified and created files.
Run your project by using the v0 user interface’s run mechanism.
Open the browser console to view the results logged by the logImageResults function.
Verify that results from the Getty Images API are properly logged, including total results and image URLs.
