Using Jribbble

Jribbble works will all public scoped methods of the Dribbble API.

<body>
  <script src="/path/to/jribbble.min.js"></script>
  <script>
    jribbble.shots({token: "<your_oauth_access_token>"}, function(shotsArray) {
      console.log(shotsArray); // The JSON from the API Request.
    });
  </script>
</body>

Refer to the Dribbble V2 API Docs for details on response objects.

Setting your access token

Before you can use any of Jribbble's methods, you must set your Dribbble app's client access token. If you do not have a token, follow the setup guide on https://jribbble.glitch.me

You can set the token as an option of any method call as shown in the examples {token: "<your_oauth_access_token>"}, or you can set it with jribbble.setToken:

jribbble.setToken(token)

Description: Sets the required Dribbble access_token

Parameters:

  • token - required String Your Dribbble access_token from the Oauth handshake process

Using setToken is optional. It’s probably most useful if you’re calling multiple jribbble methods on a single page.

Example usage:

jribbble.setToken("123456789");

Available methods

Methods that will only work with Dribbble-approved apps

Note: You will need to contact Dribbble support to get an approved app, Jribbble can't approve apps.

    return html + '<li><a href="'+  shot.html_url + '" target="_blank"><img src="' + shot.images.normal + '"></a></li>';
  }, "");
});

Contributing

Jribbble is open source. Issues and pull requests gladly accepted.

Install development dependencies:

npm install

Tests

For PRs to be accepted, all tests must pass. They in Travis for all PRs. There are two options to run tests locally.

Watch all files and rerun tests on change:

npm run test-watch

Run all tests once:

npm test

Using Jribbble locally

We don't have any type of built in setup for this. To work locally, I create a file in the root directory sandbox.html. This file is ignored by git. In there I add HTML as an end-user would, expect I point to the src version of Jribbble to test new changes as I'm working.

I view sandbox.html in a browser using a Python server:

python -m http.server

Building Jribbble

Jribbble includes a Makefile that includes a build task. The task copies the jribbble.js source to the /dist directory–adding the version number and build date–and creates a minified version of it using UglifyJS2.

To build Jribbble you'll need UglifyJS2:

npm install uglify-js -g

then from the root directory run

make
