Module for Twitch's v5 API

Package Exports

  • twitch-api-v5

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 (twitch-api-v5) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Twitch_API_v5

Simple module to use Twitch's API v5 for all endpoints. For details on optional parameters or required authentication scopes please follow the links to the Twitch docs.

This module also includes undocumented endpoints (such as the chatters endpoint to view which users are currently in a channels chat), these should be used at your own risk and are should be expected to change or be removed at any time.

Contents

Getting Started

Install

npm install twitch-api-v5 --save

Examples

var api = require('twitch-api-v5');

api.clientID = 'Twitch app client-id';

api.user.getByID({ userID: '12826' }, (err, res) => {
    if(err) {
        console.log(err);
    } else {
        console.log(res);
        /* Example response
        {
            display_name: 'Twitch',
            _id: '12826',
            name: 'twitch',
            type: 'user',
            ...
        }
        */
    }
});

api.feed.createPost({ auth: 'OAuth ...', channelID: '12826', post: 'New Post!' }, (err, res) => {
    ...
});

To enable debugging of the HTTP requests, use api.debug = true;
