Lorem Ipsum API

Why Use an API Instead of a Website?

Copy-pasting Lorem Ipsum from a browser works fine for a one-off mockup. It breaks down the moment you need placeholder text in a CI pipeline, a seed script for a test database, or a backend template that renders differently on every request. An API or library call fits into that workflow; a website tab doesn't.

Two Ways to Generate Lorem Ipsum in Code

Lorelai — Go Library

Import it directly into a Go codebase. No network calls, no rate limits, MIT licensed. Best when you're already writing Go and want zero external dependencies.

$ go get github.com/bobadilla-tech/lorelai

Requiems API — REST Endpoint

A hosted HTTP endpoint you can call from any language — no Go dependency required. Part of a larger all-in-one SaaS backend covering auth, validation, and more. Needs a free API key (no credit card).

$ curl "https://api.requiems.xyz/v1/text/lorem?paragraphs=3" -H "requiems-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Calling It From Your Language

Every Requiems API request needs a requiems-api-key header — get a free one here, no credit card required.

const res = await fetch('https://api.requiems.xyz/v1/text/lorem?paragraphs=3', {
  headers: { 'requiems-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY' }
});
const { data } = await res.json();
console.log(data.text);

import requests

res = requests.get(
    "https://api.requiems.xyz/v1/text/lorem",
    params={"paragraphs": 3},
    headers={"requiems-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"}
)
text = res.json()["data"]["text"]

import "github.com/bobadilla-tech/lorelai"

text := lorelai.Generate(lorelai.Options{Paragraphs: 3})
