CSGO-Market

Simplified CSGO skin pricing API

Straight from Steam's community market

Use case:

var csgomarket = require('csgo-market');

csgomarket.getSinglePrice('AK-47', 'Vulcan', 'Factory New', null, function (err, data) {

  if (err) {
    console.error('ERROR', err);
  } else {
    console.log(data);
  }

});

Example output from above code (prices will always return in USD):

{
  "success": true,
  "lowest_price": "$80.50",
  "volume": "48",
  "median_price": "$80.01",
  "wep": "AK-47",
  "skin": "Vulcan",
  "wear": "Factory New",
  "stattrak": false
}

• Lowest price: $80.50
• Median price: $80.01
• 48 sold/bought on the market

##Methods

getSinglePrice(wep, skin, wear, stattrak, callback)

• wep: Name of the weapon to be requested. Ex: 'AK-47'.
• skin: Name of the skin to be requested. Ex: "'Vulcan'.
• wear: Wear of the skin to be requested. These options are available: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred. Defaults to 'Field-Tested' but a Levenshtein distance will be used to ensure a match.
• stattrak: Boolean which signifies if you want StatTrak to be included in the request or not. Defaults to false
• callback: Callback function which returns the request data. function(err, data).

Returns data from the Steam market to callback with 2 arguments (err, data) where data is the response.

getSingleKnifePrice(knife, skin, wear, stattrak, callback)

• knife: Name of the knife to be requested. Ex: 'Karambit'.
• skin: Name of the skin to be requested. Ex: 'Crimson Web'. Note: If skin is set to null then it will request the version of the Knife with no skin. example of a knife with no skin
• wear: Wear of the skin to be requested. These options are available: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred. Defaults to 'Field-Tested' but a Levenshtein distance will be used to ensure a match. Note: If skin is set to null wear will also be set to null.
• stattrak: Boolean which signifies if you want StatTrak to be included in the request or not. Defaults to false
• callback: Callback function which returns the request data. function(err, data).

Returns data from the Steam market to callback with 2 arguments (err, data) where data is the response.

Asyncrhonous Methods

getSinglePriceAsync(wep, skin, wear, statrak)

Same parameters minus the callback as the non-async version. Promisified version of the getSinglePrice method (Example usage below).

getSingleKnifePriceAsync(knife, skin, wear, stattrak)

Same parameters minus the callback as the non-async version. Promisified version of the getSingleKnifePrice method.

Use case:

'''js var csgomarket = require('csgo-market'); var Q = require('q');

var wears = ['Factory New', 'Minimal Wear', 'Field-Tested', 'Well-Worn', 'Battle-Scarred'];

var data = { prices : [{ weapon : "AWP", cached : false, skins : ['Asiimov', 'BOOM', 'Man-o'-war'], skinData : {} }] }

var getPrice = function(theData) { var promises = []; theData.skins.forEach(function(skin) { theData.skinData[skin] = {}; wears.forEach(function(wear) { promises.push(csgomarket.getSinglePriceAsync(theData.weapon, skin, wear, false).then(function(data) { theData.skinData[skin][wear] = data; })); }); }); return Q.allSettled(promises).then(function() { return theData; }); } getPrice(all.prices[0]).then(function(results) { // Do something with returned results here. }) '''

NOTE:

Capitalization is important for passed in values. If you are unsure of the exact name/spelling/capitilization/punctuation of a weapon and/or skin I highly recommend checking the community market as a reference.

Main goals to add in the near future:

• Method for all wears given a particular gun and skin or knife and skin.

This module is still under-development and this is just the first iteration.

If you have any suggestions I am open to add additional functionality! I'd like to keep it small, but I'd love feedback. Email me at nick.b.duncan@gmail.com
