You can see our other libraries and more documentation at the Clickatell APIs and Libraries Project.
Master:
This library allows easy access to connecting the Clickatell's different messenging API's.
- Installation
This library is managed by the Node Package Manager
npm install clickatell-node
- Usage
All calls are asynchronous and the parameters follows the nodeJS convention of specifying any errors as the first parameter and the response as the second.
var clickatell = require('clickatell-node').http(user, pass, api_id);
// var clickatell = require('clickatell-node').rest(token);
clickatell.sendMessage(["00000000000"], "My Message", {}, function (err, messages) {
for (var key in messages) {
var message = messages[key];
console.log(message);
// Message response format:
// message.id (false if error)
// message.destination
// message.error (false if no error)
// message.code (false if no error)
}
});- Supported API calls
The available calls should be defined as the following. Whenever you write a new adapter (API type) you should also try to stick to this interface.
sendMessage(to, message, extra, callback);
getBalance(callback);
stopMessage(apiMsgId, callback);
queryMessage(apiMsgId, callback);
routeCoverage(msisdn, callback);
getMessageCharge(apiMsgId, callback);The callback uses the standard way of handling response and will be invoked with the following parameters:
sendMessage(["0000000000"], "My Message", {}, function (err, messages) {
});- SendMessage parameters that are not supported
The sendMessage calls supports a third parameter called extra. This parameter can be used to specify any values in the Clickatell documentation that the library does not support as part of the public interface.
- Testing
To run the library test suite just execute npm test from the library root. Please make sure all tests are passing before pushing back any changes.
