Installation

$ npm install backpack.tf

API

var backpacktf = require('backpack.tf');

var b = new backpacktf(apiKey[, app])

Creates a backpacktf instance b from String apiKey. Number app is the AppID of the game you want to be querying prices for (defaults to 440, Team Fortress 2).

b.getPrices([options={}], callback)

Queries backpack.tf's price information for all priced items. Object options can be used to set parameters like raw.

The callback is called by jsonist with up to 3 arguments:

If there is an error then there will only be an error argument in the first position, otherwise it will be null. The second argument will contain the deserialised object obtained from the server and the third argument will be the response object itself if you need to fetch headers or other metadata.

b.getCurrencies(callback)

Queries backpack.tf's internal currency data for a given game.

b.getSpecialItems(callback)

Queries backpack.tf's internal item placeholders for a given game.

b.getUsers(users, callback)

Queries backpack.tf's profile information for users. If looking up only one profile, then users should be a String containing the profile's 64-bit Steam ID. If looking up multiple users, then users should be an Array of Strings containing the 64-bit Steam IDs of the profiles you want to look up.

b.getUserListings(user, callback)

Queries backpack.tf's classified listings for String user.
