node-openload

An Openload API wrapper for Node.JS using Promises.

Prerequisites

Install

npm install --save node-openload

Usage

Create an instance by using the following configuration:

const openload = require('node-openload');
const ol = openload({
  api_login: YOUR-API-LOGIN-HERE,
  api_key: YOUR-API-KEY-HERE,
});

Functions

Below the available functions are listed. The structure of the returned object may be looked up at the API documentation.
By default, this module returns only the result property from the API response.

Sample function call:

ol.getAccountInfo()
  .then(info => console.log(info));   // Prints account info

getAccountInfo()

Returns information about your account.

getDownloadTicket(file)

Returns a download ticket, needed for actually downloading desired file afterwards.

file: The ID of your requested file.

Caution:

  • Sometimes the response also returns a captcha_url property holding an image link in the result.
  • In addition a 509: Bandwidth usage exceeded error might be returned, this is the API's fault, not the fault of this module. Then a file download is not possible at this time.

getDownloadLink(obj)
