Easily extendable

To create your own API method simply extend the client like so:

dota2Api.extend('myFancyMethod', function (params, next) {
    // do somethin cool here
    this.invoke('MethodName')
        .using(params)
        .on('InterfaceName')
        .then(next);
});

dota2Api.myFancyMethod({}, function (err, response) {
    // hey it works!
});
