NPM Package

node-utopian-rocks

What is the project about?

I've realized that utopian.io official API isn't available for a while, And all existing Utopian API modules can't be functioning while API provider isn't available, I also have realized many people were asking for API which is only available at utopian.rocks, however, I couldn't find any module for Node.js API wrapper available for it then I've decided to make a module for it which gonna make any projects depends on Utopian API comes back to work easily by just installing that alternative module and following simple usage instructions.

Usage

Install using npm:

npm install node-utopian-rocks

Then

const utopian = require('node-utopian-rocks');

Examples

Calling Asynchronously:

// Retrieve posts by category, status
await utopian.getPosts('development', 'reviewed')

// Retrieve posts by category, status, author, non-staff-picks
await utopian.getPosts('development', 'reviewed', 'gigatoride', null, false)

// Retrieve moderators
await utopian.getModerators();

// Retrieve Statistics by today for task requests
await utopian.getStats('today', 'task_requests');

You can also do it using then()
for more information please visit README.md

Thank you for your contribution.

1. This is a nice wrapper for the utopian.rocks API, although I'd like to see further data extractions from JSON data.
2. There used to be some projects e.g. this that is based on the official utopian API - but seems suspended and no longer in use after the incident.
3. +1 for the tests. But expecting to be 'object' may not be good enough - In Javascript, every thing is object.
