Company Info Helper

[victorzheng02]

Summary of Changes

Adds a helper that, given a crunchbase entity id or a crunchbase company page, returns info on the company. Currently returns the following information:

{
  properties: {
    short_description: 'Airbnb is an online community marketplace for people to list, discover, and book accommodations through mobile phones or the internet.',
    identifier: {
      uuid: 'bcb617c3-9e43-d5b0-1d14-82b795f2642f',
      value: 'Airbnb',
      image_id: 'bomkrvppqn1pssoqsxqy',
      permalink: 'airbnb',
      entity_def_id: 'organization'
    }
  }
}

Motivation and Explanation

Works towards #122. Once this is in, we can track companies in our database and start implementing commands.

Related Issues

Resolves #402.

Steps to Reproduce

Call the function through ts-node.
You might not be able to import modules, so you can comment out the imports and replace them with

const fetch = require('node-fetch');
const { isValidUrl } = require('./validateUrl');
const { vars } = require('../config');

for testing

Overall looks good! I just left some very small nitpicks.

[Picowchew]

Oh one more thing, the file companyinfo.ts should be renamed to companyInfo.ts.

LGTM!
