Come Alone events feed

Endpoints

Static files, rebuilt after every batch

Everything lives under https://comealone.app/feed/v1/. Files are regenerated when we add events (usually daily) and cached for 30 minutes at the edge. Only upcoming events are included — past ones drop out automatically.

/feed/v1/events.jsonAll upcoming events, sorted by start, plus meta (count, cities, licence).
/feed/v1/cities.jsonEvery city with country, timezone, event counts and its own feed URLs.
/feed/v1/city/<slug>.jsonOne city. Slugs are lower-case ASCII with hyphens: madrid, san-sebastian, new-taipei.
/feed/v1/events.rssRSS 2.0 of all upcoming events — title, official link, description, pubDate (= start), guid, cover as enclosure.
/feed/v1/city/<slug>.rssPer-city RSS. Add it to a reader or a newsletter tool, or put it in a <link rel="alternate">.
/feed/v1/ics/<city-slug>.icsCalendar subscription (iCalendar) for one city, next 90 days. Subscribe in Google or Apple Calendar with webcal://comealone.app/feed/v1/ics/<city-slug>.ics. Also /feed/v1/ics/category/<category>.ics (e.g. music, learning) and /feed/v1/ics/all.ics when small enough. Refreshes every 12 hours; end times are approximate.
/feed/v1/widget.jsDrop-in widget that renders a city's next events on your page (see below).

Responses carry Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * and Cache-Control: public, max-age=1800. There is no rate limit on static files; please cache on your side for at least 15 minutes anyway.

The session focuses on a range of movements to relax the mind and body. According to the listing it includes stretching, breathing, strength and balance exercises, worked through by combining standing poses with mat work. The class runs from 07:30 to 08:30 at 83 Lower Esplanade. The meeting point is at the end of Stewart Parade near the rotunda. The listing gives the cost as free and states that no bookings are required. For more information, people can phone John on 0403 676 435. The listing tags the class as suitable for all ages. A morning yoga class like this is easy to join alone, since everyone is focused on their own mat and breathing, and you can simply arrive and start.\n\n«Focus on a range of movements to relax the mind and body.»\n\nStarts 07:30, ends about 08:30.

Dates are local to the event with an explicit UTC offset, so new Date(e.start) is always correct; show them in e.timezone, not in the viewer's zone, unless you mean to.

Quick start

Three lines to the first event

curl + jq

curl -s https://comealone.app/feed/v1/events.json | jq '.events[0:3] | .[] | {title, start, city, source_url}'
curl -s https://comealone.app/feed/v1/city/madrid.json | jq '.meta.count'
curl -s https://comealone.app/feed/v1/events.rss | head -20

JavaScript (browser or Node 18+)

const r = await fetch('https://comealone.app/feed/v1/city/madrid.json');
const { meta, events } = await r.json();
console.log(meta.count, 'events in', meta.city);
for (const e of events.slice(0, 5)) {
  console.log(new Date(e.start).toLocaleString(), e.title, e.venue, e.source_url);
}

RSS autodiscovery

<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Come Alone — Madrid" href="https://comealone.app/feed/v1/city/madrid.rss">

Attribution for the free tier: a visible “Events by Come Alone / Meet & Mint” near the list, and a link to each event's source_url. That is the whole licence (CC BY 4.0).

Embeddable widget

One script tag, a list of tonight's events

Put the tag where the list should appear. It renders the next events of a city with cover thumbnails, links to the official pages and an “Open in Meet & Mint” link. No dependencies, ~4 KB, styles are scoped to the widget and follow your page's font.

<script src="https://comealone.app/feed/v1/widget.js" data-city="madrid" data-limit="5"></script>

Attribute	Default	Meaning
`data-city`	(all cities)	City slug from cities.json. Omit for a cross-city list.
`data-limit`	5	How many events to show (1–50).
`data-category`	(all)	Only this category, e.g. `Music`.
`data-free`	false	`true` shows free events only.
`data-theme`	light	`light`, `dark` or `auto` (follows the visitor's system).
`data-title`	Go alone in <city>	Heading text; empty string hides it.
`data-target`	(after the script)	CSS selector of an element to render into instead.

Good practice

How to use it well

Link to the official page. source_url is where people register, check prices and see last-minute changes. Never hide it.
Show times in the event's timezone. Each event has timezone; a Taipei concert at 19:30 is not at 13:30.
Cache for 15–30 minutes. We rebuild the files after each batch; the edge caches for 30 minutes. Polling more often just returns the same file.
Keep the attribution. On the free tier, “Events by Come Alone / Meet & Mint” with a link to comealone.app, visible next to the list.
Use id for de-duplication. It is stable across rebuilds; updated_at tells you when the data set last changed.
