Tinder-api-promise NPM

tinder-api-promise

Please note, that this is still a work in progress so it only has a handful of features

A tinder api wrapper with promises.

Works in Node and in browser.

Installation

npm install tinder-api-promise

Example

const TinderAPI = require('tinder-api-promise')
const client = new TinderAPI()

client.auth('<facebook_token>', '<facebook_id>')
  .then(() => {
    client.getRecommended()
      .then(res => {
        let { results } = res.data

        results.map(result => {
          client.like(result.user._id)
            .then(() => console.log('Liked a user'))
        })
      })
  })

or if you already have tinder auth token

const TinderAPI = require('tinder-api-promise')
const client = new TinderAPI({
  xAuthToken: '<tinder-auth-token>'
})

client.getRecommended()
  .then(res => {
    let { results } = res.data

    results.map(result => {
      client.like(result.user._id)
        .then(() => console.log('Liked a user'))
    })
  })

API

Creating instance

TinderAPI( { options } )

Use default one

const client = new TinderAPI()

or specify options object

const client = new TinderAPI({
  // If for whatever reason tinder decides to change their api url and I don't update the package
  baseURL: 'https://api.gotinder.com/',
  // Set custom headers or override default ones
  headers: {
    'User-agent': 'Tinder Android Version 4.5.5',
    'os_version': 23,
    'platform': 'android',
    'app-version': 1637,
    'Accept-Language': 'en',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  // This is set once the user is authorized.
  // You may also set this if you already have a tinder token
  xAuthToken: undefined,
  // Default request timeout
  timeout: 10000,
  // Used when getting updates
  lastActivityDate: moment().toISOString()
})

Authorizing
client.auth('<facebook_token>', '<facebook_id>')
Since, the old Facebook app method doesn't work, you can get Facebook token and id following this link, opening devtools and look for confirm?dpr=1 in the network tab. And then traverse the object till you find access token. (Credits to Paul Xu)
Or use tools like tinderauth or tindercred
Example
```
const client = new TinderAPI()

client.auth('<facebook_token>', '<facebook_id>')
  .then(res => {
    // Do stuff
  }).catch(e => console.log(e))
```
If you already have tinder token, then you can skip authorizing and just specify X-Auth-Token in constructor.
Example
```
const client = new TinderAPI({ xAuthToken: '<tinder-token>' })

// Do stuff
```

Get recommended

client.getRecommended()

Gets a list of recommended people

Example

const client = new TinderAPI()

client.auth('<facebook_token>', '<facebook_id>')
  .then(() => {
    client.getRecommended()
      .then(res => {
        // Do stuff
      })
  }).catch(e => console.log(e))
