1.1. What Is RESAS?

It is a system that aggregates and visualizes public and private sector big data on industrial structure, demographics, and human flows in Japan.

The Regional Economic Analysis System (RESAS) is provided by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and the Cabinet Secretariat (Secretariat of the Headquarters for the Creation of New Town, New Human Resources and New Work) to support various initiatives for regional development from an information perspective.

It is widely used by local government officials and people from various fields who are interested in regional revitalization to plan, implement, and verify effective measures.

1.2.3. Use Resas

In order to use the RESAS API, you need an API key issued on the official website. Generate the API key from the following site and pass it to the constructor of the Resas class.

import 'package:resas/resas.dart';

void main() async {
  final resas = Resas.connectWith(
    key: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx', // ← Replace with your API key.
  );

  // Once the instance is created, you can easily access the API by simply calling the method.
  final prefecturesResponse = await resas.common.prefectures();

  // It's easy to handle response status.
  if (prefecturesResponse.status.isNotOk) {
    // Do something when status is not OK (200).
    return;
  }

  print(prefecturesResponse);

  final citiesResponse = await resas.common.cities(
    prefectureCode: prefecturesResponse.result![0].code,
  );
  print(citiesResponse);

  final oldCitiesResponse = await resas.common.oldCities(
    prefectureCode: prefecturesResponse.result![0].code,
    cityCode: citiesResponse.result![0].code,
  );
  print(oldCitiesResponse);
}
