seatgeek-js

Unofficial Javascript wrapper for the SeatGeek API

This library works with the SeatGeek API to provide an easy way to consume their API through Node.js and the browser.

To see simple examples of client or server, refer to examples/client and examples/sever

Getting started

Install via npm : npm install seatgeek-js
Require the module var SeatGeek = require('seatgeek-js')
Obtain an [API key from SeatGeek] (https://seatgeek.com/?next=%2Faccount%2Fdevelop#login).
Initialize the SeatGeek object

var seatgeek = new SeatGeek("YOUR_API_KEY");

Begin using the API by chaining methods onto the created SeatGeek object.

Node.js Express sample server

requires express.js: `npm install express --save"

var SeatGeek = require('seatgeek-js');
var seatgeek = new SeatGeek("YOUR_API_KEY");
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
app.listen(3001);
app.get('/events', _getAllEvents);

function _getAllEvents(request, response) {
    console.log('here')
  return seatgeek.Events.all().get().then(function (res) {
      response.send(res)
  });
}

Sample for the browser

var _seatgeek = new SeatGeek("YOUR_API_KEY");

_seatgeek.Events.all().get().then(function(res) {

});
