const USERNAME = 'username';
const PASSWORD = 'password';
 
const nomado = new nomadoClient({USERNAME, PASSWORD});
 
const smsOptions = {
  to: ['3245678901'],
  message: 'Hello world',
  unicode: false
};
 
nomado.sms.send(smsOptions)
    .then((response) => {
      console.log(response.code);

Documentation

• OTP
• Calls
• HLR

Authentication

First, initialize the library with your nomado credentials.

const nomado = new nomadoClient({USERNAME, PASSWORD});

Now, you can start sending requests to the API.

Responses

Every call will return a promise that will be resolved (or rejected) with an object containing the API response code and the data.

// Result object:
{
  code: 200,
  reason: "", //in case of error
  data: {}
}

SMS

Send

Send a SMS to one or multiple numbers.

nomado.sms.send({
  to: ['3245678901','3245678902'], // e164 formatted numbers
  message: 'Bonjour le monde',
  unicode: false
});
 
// example response
{
  code: 200,
  data: {
    callerID: 'NOMADO',
    text: 'Bonjour le monde',
    unicode: 0,
    '3245678901': { ... },
    '3245678902': { ... }
  },
  cost: 0.16,
  total_sms: 2,
}

If you are sending unicode SMS, don't forget to turn on the unicode flag, otherwise encoding problems may occur.

OTP

Sending 2FA code via SMS to your users without the hassle.

Send

nomado.otp.send({
  to: '3245678901', // e164 formatted number
  template: 'Your verification code is {{CODE}}.',
  type: 'ALPHANUMERIC', // optional, ALPHA, NUMERIC or ALPHANUMERIC (default)
  length: 4, // optional, defaults to 4
  expiry: 7200 // optional, defaults to 7200 seconds (2 hours)
})

In the template, {{CODE}} will be replaced by the generated 2FA code.

Verify

Let's check the code entered by your user.

nomado.otp.verify({
  number: '3245678901', // their phone number,
  token: '456789' // their code
})
 
// expected response
{
  code: 200,
  data: {
    verify: true
  }
}

Once the code has been verified, it becomes invalidated.

Calls

Make

Makes a call to a telephone line or number. When it answers, makes a second call to a number, bridging both calls together.

nomado.calls.make({
  cnumber: '3245678901',
  snumber: '3245678902'
});
 
// example response
{
  code: 200
}

HLR

Make HLR queries to any mobile number.

Fetch

nomado.hlr.fetch({
  numbers: ['3245678901','3245678902'], // e164 formatted numbers
});
 
// example response
{
  code: 200,
  data: {
    '3245678901': { ... },
    '3245678902': { ... },
    valid_numbers: 2
  },
  cost: 0.05,
}

Validate

Free query to validate mobile phone numbers and get short information

nomado.hlr.validate({
  number: '3245678901', // e164 formatted number
});
 
// example response
{
  code: 200,
  data: {
     Status: 'Valid',
     Region: 'BE',
     ...
  }
}

Account

Easy way to check your current balance

Get balance

nomado.account.getBalance();
 
// example response
{
  code: 200,
  data: {
     balance: '95.740418'
  }
}
