This module fetches data from Airtable and stores it into Redis in JSON format
Installation: npm i airtable-to-redis
const { connectRedis, getApiData, redTokens, dataToRedis } = require('airtable-to-redis')
const TOKEN_KEY = 'airtable.auth'
const BASE_ID = 'appXXXX'
const TABLE_ID = 'tblXXX'
connectRedis({redisUrl:'redis://user:pass@server-host:port'})
.then(async()=>{
try{
let [ authtoken, refreshtoken ] = await redTokens(TOKEN_KEY)
console.log(authtoken,' ',refreshtoken)
return getApiData({apikey:authtoken, base:BASE_ID, tbl:TABLE_ID})
}
catch(errc){
if(errc === 401){
console.log('Invalid auth token, try refreshing')
}
else{
console.error('API error: ',errc)
}
}
})
.then((atdata)=>{
dataToRedis(TABLE_ID,atdata)
.then((resp)=>{
console.log(resp)
})
.catch((err)=>{
console.error(err)
})
})
.catch((err)=>{
console.error(err)
})The redis server must have JSON module installed
If the redis server requires a secure connection, use rediss://
Authentication: oAuth token is used to connect to Airtable API
