New source: Holiday API

[imrehg]

Tell us about the new connector you’d like to have

Source for the Holiday API.

Describe the context around this new connector

This API is handy for all kinds of business settings, when combined with other internal sources of data. The sync is likely run relatively infrequently, since holidays don't change often.

This is an API source connector (docs), and likely the "holidays" endpoint is the only relevant one for AirByte.

This service is a freemium one, I'm using it with a free account currently for development, potentially paid if it works out.

Describe the alternative you are considering or using

Rolling my own using their Python library https://github.com/holidayapi/holidayapi-python

Are you willing to submit a PR?

Yes.

@btkcodedev ping me if you need any help, I'm happy to help too!

It would be ideal to make this connector using only connector builder itself. It looks possible. @imrehg, you only want the Holidays stream itself, right?

UPD: Made a quick proof of concept here: https://gist.github.com/natikgadzhi/4749d33ecaa326b845b6840444d3c82b

UPD2: okay, first cut no edits: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVVcKF1oM0c&t=4s
