Gemini CLI

Integrate Gemini CLI with Occult API for astrology calculations directly from your terminal.

Installation

Install Gemini CLI if not already installed.

Install

npm install -g @google/gemini-cli

Configuration

Set the OCCULT_API_KEY environment variable so Gemini CLI can access it.

Set API Key

export OCCULT_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"

Example

Ask Gemini to generate a panchang query:

Panchang Query

curl -X POST https://api.occultapi.com/api/astro/panchanga/ \
  -H "X-API-Key: $OCCULT_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"date_time": "2026-09-17T06:00:00+05:30", "latitude": 26.9124, "longitude": 75.7873, "timezone_as_float": 5.5, "keys": ["tithi", "nakshatra"]}'

Best Practices

Batch multiple keys in one request, cache results for static birth data.
