Node.js library for accessing TheTVDB API. Heavily based on joaocampinhos/thetvdb-api, but does some additional work to give nicer data output.
- Handle errors from API as JavaScript errors
- Only returns relevant data (no need to call response.Data.Series etc.)
- Set language at initialisation or afterwards when needed
- Normalised keys and values
- Empty values parsed as null
Install with npm:
npm install --save node-tvdb
And run tests with Mocha:
TVDB_KEY=[YOUR API KEY HERE] mocha
Install mocha with:
npm install -g mocha
(sudo may be required for your setup)
To start using this library you first need an API key. You can request one here. Then just follow this simple example that fetches all the shows containing "The Simpsons" in the name.
var TVDBClient = require("node-tvdb"),
client = new TVDBClient("ABC123");
client.getSeries("The Simpsons", function(err, response) {
// handle error and response
});
var TVDBClient = require("node-tvdb");
var client = new TVDBClient("ABC123"), // language defaults to "en"
clientePortuguese = new TVDBClient("ABC123", "pt");
client.getLanguages(function(error, response) {
// handle error and response
});
client.getLanguage(); // => "en"
client.setLanguage("pt");
client.getTime(function(error, response) {
// handle error and response
});
client.getSeries("Breaking Bad", function(error, response) {
// handle error and response
});
client.getSeriesById(73255, function(error, response) {
// handle error and response
});
client.getSeriesAllById(73255, function(error, response) {
// handle error and response
});
client.getActors(73255, function(error, response) {
// handle error and response
});
client.getBanners(73255, function(error, response) {
// handle error and response
});
client.getUpdates(1400611370, function(error, response) {
// handle error and response
});
