requestbin v1.5.1

requestbin

RequestBin API methods for Node.js

Usage

var requestbin = require ('requestbin');

requestbin.create (false, function (err, data) {
  if (err) { return console.log (err); }

  console.log ('Send requests to: http://requestb.in/' + data.name);
  console.log ('Inspect requests: http://requestb.in/' + data.name + '?inspect');
});

Installation

npm install requestbin

Callback & errors

The callback receives only one parameter err in case of an error. This will be aninstanceof Error with stack trace and sometimes more properties to describe the error.

When everything seems fine the err param is null and a second param data contains the result.

function callback (err, data) {
  if (!err) {
    console.log (data);
  } else {
    console.log (err);          // message + info properties, ie. details
    console.log (err.stack);    // what caused it
  }
}

Errors

.config ( object )

Set configuration options.

requestbin.config ({
  iface: '1.2.3.4'
});

.create ( isPrivate, callback )

Create a new bin.

// make it public
requestbin.create (false, console.log);

{ color: [ 70, 150, 120 ],
  name: 'oiwxgloi',
  private: false,
  request_count: 0 }

The test URL is http://requestb.in/NAME The inspect URL is http://requestb.in/NAME?inspect

.get ( binName, callback )

Get details about a bin.

requestbin.get ('oiwxgloi', console.log);

{ color: [ 70, 150, 120 ],
  name: 'oiwxgloi',
  private: false,
  request_count: 1 }

.requests ( binName, callback )

Get a list of the requests made to a bin.

requestbin.requests ('oiwxgloi', console.log);

[ { content_length: null,
    body: '',
    form_data: [],
    remote_addr: '1.2.3.4',
    method: 'GET',
    headers:
     { Host: 'requestb.in',
       Connection: 'keep-alive',
       Accept: '*/*',
       'User-Agent': 'curl/7.27.0' },
    content_type: null,
    time: 1358144300.182959,
    query_string: '',
    path: '/oiwxgloi',
    id: 'sz42lo' } ]

.request ( binName, requestId, callback )

requestbin.request ('oiwxgloi', 'sz42lo', console.log);

The output is much like the previous example, but it's an object instead of array.
