Vine API for node.js
The Vine API is undocumented and not publicly available. However, it has a lot of great content. I noticed that there are a few python wrappers, so I wanted to create a node.js one. I also plan to do a few mobile web experiments with the Vine API, so this will come in handy for my next project. Have fun!
npm install node-vine
All of Vine's API calls are authenticated, so you'll need to login first. You can add VINE_USERNAME and VINE_PASSWORD to your environment variables to hide them from being passed in the clear.
Only supports e-mail address authentication. Twitter OAuth authentication to come later.
vine.login("[email protected]", "p@ssw0rd", function(err, response) {
// Logged in! Now you can use any other authenticated API... Like fetching your timeline or the most popular videos.
});Returns a user's timeline
vine.timeline(function(err, response) {
// response contains a list of Vines in your timeline
});Returns a list of the most popular Vines
vine.popular(function(err, response) {
// response contains a list the most popular Vines
});Returns a list of promoted Vines
vine.promoted(function(err, response) {
// response contains a list of promoted Vines
});Performs a search for Vines with an associated tag
vine.tags("lolcats", function(err, response) {
// response contains a list of lolcats Vines
});Performs a search for Vine users
vine.search("dave", function(err, response) {
// response contains a list of Vine users matching "dave"
});Returns a user's settings
vine.settings(function(err, response) {
// response contains a user's Vine account settings
});Inspired by vino, a python app that displays a wall of popular Vines.
