API docs for list of ranks?

[mlecoz]

Hi,

Thanks for the awesome API! Is there any documentation anywhere that lists all the possible ranks a celebration could have?

Thanks,
Marissa

Hi, this is a known flaw of the current API design and once I get to work on this project again (the list of issues and unmerged pull requests being a sufficient testimony of how neglected it currently is), ranks will be reworked in a new version of the API and there will be a separate endpoint returning their list.

For now the only way to get a complete list of possible ranks is looking in the source code of the calendarium-romanum gem
https://github.com/igneus/calendarium-romanum/blob/45899a59db3506fee5e20682141a590561c68d9c/lib/calendarium-romanum/enums.rb#L109

It may be worth noting that the ranks are not some kind of custom design, but an attempt to model, as accurately as possible, the ranking system codified in the Table of Liturgical Days - see https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/library/liturgical-year-2193 towards the end.
