• Provide convenient addon functions to event object

About LINE Messaging API

Please refer to the official API documents for details.

• Developer Documents - https://developers.line.biz/en/docs/
• API Reference - https://developers.line.biz/en/reference/messaging-api/

Installation

$ npm install linebot --save

Usage

var linebot = require('linebot');

var bot = linebot({
  channelId: CHANNEL_ID,
  channelSecret: CHANNEL_SECRET,
  channelAccessToken: CHANNEL_ACCESS_TOKEN
});

bot.on('message', function (event) {
  event.reply(event.message.text).then(function (data) {
    // success
  }).catch(function (error) {
    // error
  });
});

bot.listen('/linewebhook', 3000);

Using with your own Express.js server

const app = express();
const linebotParser = bot.parser();
app.post('/linewebhook', linebotParser);
app.listen(3000);

See examples folder for more examples.

API

LineBot object

linebot(config)

Create LineBot instance with specified configuration.

var bot = linebot({
  channelId: CHANNEL_ID,
  channelSecret: CHANNEL_SECRET,
  channelAccessToken: CHANNEL_ACCESS_TOKEN,
  verify: true // Verify 'X-Line-Signature' header (default=true)
});

LineBot.listen(webHookPath, port, callback)

Start built-in http server on the specified port, and accept POST request callback on the specified webHookPath.

This method is provided for convenience. You can write you own server and use verify and parse methods to process webhook events. See examples/echo-express-long.js for example.

LineBot.parser()

Create Express.js middleware to parse the request.

The parser assumes that the request body has never been parsed by any body parser before, so it must be placed BEFORE any generic body parser e.g. app.use(bodyParser.json());

LineBot.verify(rawBody, signature)

Verify X-Line-Signature header.

LineBot.parse(body)

Process incoming webhook request, and raise an event.

LineBot.on(eventType, eventHandler)

Raised when a Webhook event is received.

bot.on('message',      function (event) { });
bot.on('follow',       function (event) { });
bot.on('unfollow',     function (event) { });
bot.on('join',         function (event) { });
bot.on('leave',        function (event) { });
bot.on('memberJoined', function (event) { });
bot.on('memberLeft',   function (event) { });
bot.on('postback',     function (event) { });
bot.on('beacon',       function (event) { });

LineBot.reply(replyToken, message)

Reply a message.

See: Event.reply(message)

LineBot.push(to, message)

Send push message.

to is a userId, or an array of userId. A userId can be saved from event.source.userId when added as a friend (follow event), or during the chat (message event).

message can be a string, an array of string, a Send message object, or an array of Send message objects.

LineBot.multicast(to, message)

Send push message to multiple users (Max: 150 users). This is more efficient than push as it will make api call only once.

to is an array of userId.

message can be a string, an array of string, a Send message object, or an array of Send message objects.

LineBot.broadcast(message)

Send push message to all users. This is more efficient than push as it will make api call only once.

message can be a string, an array of string, a Send message object, or an array of Send message objects.

LineBot.getMessageContent(messageId)

Get image, video, and audio data sent by users as a Buffer object.

See: Event.message.content()

LineBot.getUserProfile(userId)

See: Event.source.profile()

LineBot.getGroupMemberProfile(groupId, userId)

Get the number of users who have added this linebot on or before a specified date.

Default date is yesterday (UTC+9).

See: Get number of followers

LineBot.getQuota()

Get the number of messages that this linebot reply, push, broadcast, or multicast.

Default date is yesterday (UTC+9).

See: Get number of sent reply messages

Event object

Provide convenient shorthands to call LineBot's functions which require parameter from a source event object.

message can be a string, an array of string, a Send message object, or an array of Send message objects.

event.reply(['Hello, world 1', 'Hello, world 2']);

// reply message object
event.reply({ type: 'text', text: 'Hello, world' });

// reply multiple message object
event.reply([
  { type: 'text', text: 'Hello, world 1' },
  { type: 'text', text: 'Hello, world 2' }
