Package Exports

scratchlib

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (scratchlib) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

About

ScratchLib is a powerful Node.JS module to work with the Scratch API. It provides many methods and properties you never heard of, and does requests for you.

Installation

NPM

Open a terminal, and enter the following command: npm install scratchlib

How to use

Start by requiring the module.

const Scratchlib = require("scratchlib");

🎉 Congrats - you can now access to the many properties this module offers!

Documentation

In order to use a method, you must choose between creating an async function or by adding a callback with .then().
async function():

async function test() {
    try {
        let info = await ScratchLib.getStatus();
        console.log(info);
    } catch (err) {
        console.error(err);
    }
}

test();

.then() callback:

ScratchLib.getStatus().then(info => {
    console.log(info);
}).catch(err => {
    console.error(err);
});

Both equals to:

{
  version: '1d96065a1ea1d017949e2bd8e179762744d231f0',
  uptime: 1013664,
  load: [ 0.1611328125, 0.134765625, 0.09619140625 ],
  sql: { ssl: true, min: 0, max: 40 },
  cache: { connected: true, ready: true }
}

⚠️ Don't forget to catch the promise.

ScratchLib.getUserFollowers().then(info => {
    console.log(info);
}).catch(err => {
    console.error(err);
});

Output: Parameter of type string is missing!
