streamloots-events
Simplifies subscribing Streamloots-Events with TypeScript
This package makes it easier to listen for Streamloots-Events such as card redemptions using TypeScript. It wraps the popular web-request package, extending it with an interface for Streamloots.
Disclaimer: This is not an official supported API of Streamloots! This is more of a clever workaround.
Examples
Get redeemed card...
const streamlootsStream = StreamlootsRequest.listen("Your-Alert-ID");
streamlootsStream
.on('redemption', cardObj => {
console.log(cardObj.toString());
});Get purchased chests...
const streamlootsStream = StreamlootsRequest.listen("Your-Alert-ID");
streamlootsStream
.on('purchase', purchaseObj => {
console.log(purchaseObj.toString());
});Get gifted chests...
const streamlootsStream = StreamlootsRequest.listen("Your-Alert-ID");
streamlootsStream
.on('gift', giftObj => {
console.log(giftObj.toString());
});Getting Started
