Node.js client library for accessing Airbnb's API

Primary LanguageJavaScriptMIT LicenseMIT

UPDATE: Due to some recent changes in the API endpoints from Airbnb, currently it's not possible to calculate an estimate income for a listing. I'm looking into alternatives for this. Thank you.

AirAPI

AirAPI is a convenient NodeJS wrapper for Airbnb's API endpoints. This is not affiliated nor endorsed by Airbnb. Airbnb does not provide public access to their API, so use at your own risk. I'm not responsible for any misuse of this.

##Installation

npm install airapi --save

##Usage APIs

// Include the library in your app
var airbnb = require('airapi');

// Search
airbnb.search(options);

// Get calendar
airbnb.getCalendar(options);

// Get hosting information
airbnb.getInfo(hostingId);

// Get hosting estimate income, given availability, 
// which can be retrieved using `airbnb.getCalendar()` above
airbnb.getEstIncome(hostingAvailability);

// Get hosting reviews
airbnb.getReviews(userId, options);

NOTE: All of these API endpoints, except for getEstIncome return a promise.

##Examples ###Search

Search instant-bookable hostings in Seattle, Wa from July 3rd - July 6th, 2015, for 2 people, 2nd result page.

airbnb.search({
 location: 'Seattle, WA',
 checkin: '07/03/2015',
 checkout: '07/06/2015',
 guests: 2,
 page: 2,
 ib: true
}).then(function(searchResults) {
  console.log(searchResults);
});

Possible search options. This is subject to change periodically. I'll try to keep it as up-to-date as possible
