Retrieve Public Holidays for a Country in Java

Ensure you stay informed and prepared for the contingencies surrounding international commerce. Differing holidays, celebrations, and other recognized days throughout the year may impact not only any employees who live in those areas, but also your approach to sales, marketing, and planning and how your business should use this fore knowledge to your advantage. The following API will populate a list of public holidays for a given country so you can better plan your year.

To install with Maven, add a reference to the repository in pom.xml:

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>jitpack.io</id>
        <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>

And add a reference to the dependency in pom.xml:

<dependencies>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.Cloudmersive</groupId>
    <artifactId>Cloudmersive.APIClient.Java</artifactId>
    <version>v3.54</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>

To install with Gradle, add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
 repositories {
  ...
  maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
 }
}

And add the dependency in build.gradle:

dependencies {
        implementation 'com.github.Cloudmersive:Cloudmersive.APIClient.Java:v3.54'
}

Then, call the function:

// Import classes:
//import com.cloudmersive.client.invoker.ApiClient;
//import com.cloudmersive.client.invoker.ApiException;
//import com.cloudmersive.client.invoker.Configuration;
//import com.cloudmersive.client.invoker.auth.*;
//import com.cloudmersive.client.DateTimeApi;
ApiClient defaultClient = Configuration.getDefaultApiClient();
// Configure API key authorization: Apikey
ApiKeyAuth Apikey = (ApiKeyAuth) defaultClient.getAuthentication("Apikey");
Apikey.setApiKey("YOUR API KEY");
// Uncomment the following line to set a prefix for the API key, e.g. "Token" (defaults to null)
//Apikey.setApiKeyPrefix("Token");
DateTimeApi apiInstance = new DateTimeApi();
GetPublicHolidaysRequest input = new GetPublicHolidaysRequest(); // GetPublicHolidaysRequest | Input request
try {
    PublicHolidaysResponse result = apiInstance.dateTimeGetPublicHolidays(input);
    System.out.println(result);
} catch (ApiException e) {
    System.err.println("Exception when calling DateTimeApi#dateTimeGetPublicHolidays");
    e.printStackTrace();
}

This will return the name of the holiday in both English and the local language, as well as the date on which it occurs, the holiday type, and whether the holiday is nationwide. You can retrieve the API Key from the Cloudmersive website at no cost and with no commitment. This will provide you with 800 monthly calls across our library of APIs.
