hamster.js 
An asynchronous EVE Online API client for Node.js
Examples
var hamster = require('hamster')
// Print a list of skill groups
hamster.fetch('eve:SkillTree', function (err, result) {
if (err) throw err
for (var groupID in result.skillGroups) {
console.log(result.skillGroups[groupID].groupName)
}
})
// Set default parameters (useful for setting keyID and vCode)
hamster.setParams({
keyID: '1234567',
vCode: 'some random vcode'
})
// Default parameters will get merged with the parameters passed into fetch().
// The actual request will include all three parameters: keyID, vCode and characterID
hamster.fetch('char:AccountBalance', {characterID: 12345}, function (err, result) {
if (err) throw err
// do stuff
})Client object
The hamster object is multi-purpose in that it is both a namespace container and an instance of hamster.Client. Client objects individually maintain their own cache state and server details. If you do not want to use the default hamster object, feel free to construct your own client objects as you see fit.
var hamster = require('hamster')
, client = new hamster.Client({url: url, cache: cache})
client.fetch('...', function (err, result) {
// ...
})Caching
- Easily extendible
- Asynchronous store/read
- Ships with
hamster.cache.FileCacheandhamster.cache.MemoryCache - Defaults to
hamster.cache.MemoryCache(it is highly recommended you switch to FileCache)
var hamster = require('hamster')
hamster.setCache(new hamster.cache.FileCache({path: '...'}))Tests
Hamster is mostly tested, but not completely. Any contributions, especially to tests are greatly appreciated.
