linkedin-js
Easy peasy linkedin client for connect.
npm install linkedin-js
Usage
linkedin-js has two methods.
- getAccesToken(req, res, callback): Uses oAuth module to retrieve the access_token
- apiCall(http_method, path, params, callback): Does a call to the linkedin API.
Params are sent as JSON. Params must contain the token.
Example using express.js and specifying member permissions
See "Granting Member Permissions to Your Application"
var express = require('express')
, linkedin_client = require('linkedin-js')('key', 'secret', 'http://localhost:3003/auth')
, app = express.createServer(
express.cookieParser()
, express.session({ secret: "string" })
);
app.get('/auth', function (req, res) {
// the first time will redirect to linkedin
linkedin_client.getAccessToken(req, res, function (error, token) {
// will enter here when coming back from linkedin
req.session.token = token;
res.render('auth');
}, ['rw_nus', 'r_network'] /*This AccessToken should be granted these member permissions*/);
});
app.post('/message', function (req, res) {
linkedin_client.apiCall('POST', '/people/~/shares',
{
token: {
oauth_token_secret: req.session.token.oauth_token_secret
, oauth_token: req.session.token.oauth_token
}
, share: {
comment: req.param('message')
, visibility: {code: 'anyone'}
}
}
, function (error, result) {
res.render('message_sent');
}
