client_secret: <the_client_secret>,
redirect_uri: null,
api_url: null
});
Generate Auth URL

Verify code (and optionally state) from returned auth
trakt.exchange_code('code', 'csrf token (state)').then(result => {
});
Alternate OAUTH "device" method
trakt.get_codes().then(poll => {
return trakt.poll_access(poll);
}).catch(error => {
});
Refresh token
trakt.refresh_token().then(results => {
});
Storing token over sessions
const token = trakt.export_token();
trakt.import_token(token).then(newTokens => {
});
Actual API requests
See methods in methods.json or wiki.
trakt.calendars.all.shows({
start_date: '2015-11-13',
days: '7',
extended: 'full'
}).then(shows => {
});
trakt.search.text({
query: 'tron',
type: 'movie,person'
}).then(response => {
});
trakt.search.id({
id_type: 'imdb',
id: 'tt0084827'
}).then(response => {
});
You can extend your calls with pagination: true
to get the extra pagination info from headers.
trakt.movies.popular({
pagination: true
}).then(movies => {
});
Note: this will contain data
and pagination
for all calls, even if no pagination is available. it's typically for really advanced use only
Load plugins
When calling new Trakt()
, include desired plugins in an object (must be installed from npm):
const trakt = new Trakt({
client_id: <the_client_id>,
client_secret: <the_client_secret>,
plugins: {
images: require('trakt.tv-images')
}
options: {
images: {
smallerImages: true
}
}
});
The plugin can be accessed with the key you specify. For example trakt.images.get()
.
