xivapi-js

npm version license

This is a pure JS wrapper for interacting with XIVAPI and handling all requests in a simple, promise-driven manner.

Installation

Simply add the module to your node project with npm:

npm i @xivapi/js

Usage

Require and initialize the module in your code:

const XIVAPI = require('@xivapi/js')
const xiv = new XIVAPI()

...and then check out the wiki for usage help!

If you get really stuck and need some help, or run into any problems/concerns, either open up an issue on github or join the XIVAPI discord server and ping/DM @kaimoe.

Examples:

Find an item's ID:

const getID = async () => {
  //find item
  let res = await xiv.search('Stuffed Khloe')

  //return item ID
  return res.Results[0].ID
}

Search for an FC and get an list of members:

const getMembers = async () => {
  //find the FC with its name and server
  let res = await xiv.freecompany.search('My Fun FC', {server: 'Excalibur'})

  //get the FC ID
  let id = res.Results[0].ID

  //get and return fc members
  let fc = await xiv.freecompany.get('9231253336202687179', {data: FCM})
  return fc.FreeCompanyMembers
}

Check for character ownership using a token we generated and provided to the user:

const verifyCharacter = async () => {
  //find the character with their name and server
  let res = await xiv.character.search('Kai Megumi', {server: 'excalibur'}) //case insensitive server names, btw ;)

  //get the character
  let char = res.Results[0]

  //return whether or not the character's lodestone bio matches our token
  return char.Bio === 'example_token'
}
