codebottle-js

A Node.js library to interact with CodeBottle's API.

Installing

npm i codebottle

Quick start

The library works as you expect it to.

const codebottle = require('codebottle');
codebottle.getLatest().then(console.log);

Documentation

All functions return Promises. This means you can await things.
All responses have _status field, which is the HTTP status. This does NOT include errors

Available functions

codebottle.search(keywords, language);      // Search snippets, language (id) is optional
codebottle.getLatest();                     // Gets latest snippets
codebottle.get(id);                         // Get snippet by ID
codebottle.getCategories();                 // Gets all categories
codebottle.getCategory(id);                 // Gets category by ID
codebottle.getLanguages();                  // Gets all languages
codebottle.getLanguage(id);                 // Get language by ID

Response

The response is simply the API response itself, but the _status field added to it. See CodeBottle's documentation to get an idea what different requests return.

Catching failures

Since what you get is a promise, all there to it is to use .catch:

codebottle.getLatest().then(console.log)
    .catch(error => console.error('duh fix your internet'));

Errors are thrown when the API returns a non-200 status code. (such as bad parameters)
