Package Exports

steam-market-search

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 (steam-market-search) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

steam-market-search

What is this?

steam-market-search is a NodeJS package for retrieving market information of steam community items for a certain app. These items are Emoticons, Backgrounds, Trading cards and Booster Packs.

1.0.7 Large changes

The 1.0.7 recode has changed how the page works, It's no longer limited to steamcommunity items. The structure has changed and it uses promises instead of callbacks. Please read the mini documentation below to understand how to properly use this package.

Quick Start

Install in your app directory

$ npm install steam-market-search --save

Basic usage

var SteamMarket = require('../index');

// 311210 = Call of Duty: Black Ops III

// Search for community items like emoticons, trading cards, backgrounds and boosters
SteamMarket.searchCommunity("311210").then(function(items){
    console.log(JSON.stringify(items[0], null, 2));
}, console.error);

}, ...

Searching non-community items Like CSGO, TF2, Dota ect.

var SteamMarket = require('../index');

// Search CSGO for P90 skins
SteamMarket.search("730", { find : "P90 Death by Kitty" }).then(function(items){
    console.log(JSON.stringify(items[0], null, 2));
}, console.error);

Multi-page Searches

It's not recommended to use low multipage intervals. Making too many requests will get you rate-limited on steam. Previous options will work fine.

var SteamMarket = require('../index');

// Load 3 pages of Minimal Wear P90 Skins for CSGO

SteamMarket.searchMultipage("730", {
    find : "P90 Minimal Wear",
    multipage_amount : 3, // Load 3 pages then return results. Default=10
    multipage_interval : 3000, // Wait 3 seconds between pages. Default=3000
    multipage_logging : true // Log progress
}).then(function(items){

    // Console log all items found worth $1.00 - $5.00
    console.log( items.filter(function(a){
        return a.sale_price > 1.00 && a.sale_price < 5.00
    }) );

}, console.error);

Rate limits It's not recommended to use low multipage intervals. Making too many requests in a short amount of time will get you rate-limited on steam.
