SafeTrek Node Bootstrap

A bootstrap project to get you started with the SafeTrek API using NodeJS.

Get Started

To get started with the SafeTrek API, you’ll need to do three things:

Create or access your Heroku account.
Request access to get your client_id and client_secret from SafeTrek.
Use the Deploy to Heroku button below to create your new app off of this repository.
- Give your app a name and fill in your SafeTrek API credentials that you received.
- If this is your first time using this repo, leave the REDIRECT_URL blank.

A few more quick steps to get you up and going:

Once deployed, go through the demo experience to better understand how to integrate SafeTrek into your app so that you can provide peace of mind to your users.
- TIP: Be sure to keep an eye out for the console outputs during the demo.
When you’ve gone through the code and gotten the hang of it, fork this repo to your own GitHub account.
Connect the forked repo to your Heroku app from the Deploy menu on Heroku's dashboard.
- https://dashboard.heroku.com/apps/<YOUR-APP-NAME>/deploy/github
Deploy any branch from your forked repo to your Heroku app. (You can even setup auto-deploy if you want 😎 ). Just clone your forked repo to push any changes.
For testing on localhost, create a file named .env in the root directory and set your SafeTrek API credentials as below (no quotes or spaces):

CLIENT_ID=<your-client-id>
CLIENT_SECRET=<your-client-secret>

What life-saving integration will you create?
