Twitch OAuth Helper

Currently only supports OAuth Authorization Code Flow

Usage

const getTwitchSession = require("./index");
const twitchSession = await getTwitchSession({
  clientId: "...",
  clientSecret: "...",
  redirectUri: "http://localhost",
});

• On initial call will help obtain accessToken and refreshTokens by providing a link to gain authorization code and wait for user input.
  • This can be skipped by building your own twitch-session.json with twitchtokengenerator.com
• When called it will check and automatically refresh a token based on expiration time.

Returns

{
  "clientId": "...",
  "accessToken": "...",
  "refreshToken": "...",
  "expires": "2020-05-11T01:00:00.000Z"
}

Parameters

settings	clientId	Twitch App Client ID
settings	clientSecret	Twitch App Secret
settings	redirectUri	(Optional) Where initial authorization request should redirect too
settings	scope	(Optional) space-separated list of scopes
