This is a JavaScript package that can be used to integrate new Product Hunt votes and comments into your organization's Orbit workspace.

:sparkles: This is a community project. The Orbit team does its best to maintain it and keep it up to date with any recent API changes. We welcome community contributions to make sure that it stays current. :sparkles:

First Time Setup

1. Create a new Product Hunt API Application
   1. Redirect URI can be any web address
   2. Take note of your API Key and API Secret

Application Credentials

The application requires the following environment variables:

Variable	Description	More Info
PRODUCT_HUNT_API_KEY	API Key for your Product Hunt Application	Follow the guide above
PRODUCT_HUNT_API_SECRET	API Secret for your Product Hunt Application	Follow the guide above
ORBIT_API_KEY	API key for Orbit	Found in Account Settings in your Orbit workspace
ORBIT_WORKSPACE_ID	ID for your Orbit workspace	Last part of the Orbit workspace URL, i.e. https://app.orbit.love/my-workspace, the ID is my-workspace

Package Usage

Install the package with the following command

$ npm install @orbit-love/producthunt

The standard initialization of the library requires the following signature:

const OrbitProductHunt = require('@orbit-love/producthunt')
const orbitProductHunt = new OrbitProductHunt('orbitWorkspaceId', 'orbitApiKey', 'productHuntApiKey', 'productHuntApiSecret')

If you have the following environment variables set: ORBIT_WORKSPACE_ID, ORBIT_API_KEY, PRODUCT_HUNT_API_KEY, and PRODUCT_HUNT_API_SECRET then you can initialize the client as follows:

const OrbitProductHunt = require('@orbit-love/producthunt')
const orbitProductHunt = new OrbitProductHunt()

Get Product IDs Made By A User

const products = await orbitProductHunt.getProducts('_phzn')
console.log(products)

Add New Votes On Product

const votes = await orbitProductHunt.getVotes(productId)
const prepared = await orbitProductHunt.prepareVotes(votes, 24) // 24 is the number of previous hours to get votes from
const outcome = await orbitProductHunt.addActivities(prepared)
console.log(outcome)

Add New Comments On Product

const votes = await orbitProductHunt.getComments(productId)
const prepared = await orbitProductHunt.prepareComments(votes, 24) // 24 is the number of previous hours to get votes from
const outcome = await orbitProductHunt.addActivities(prepared)
console.log(outcome)

CLI Usage

To use this package you do not need to install it, but will need Node.js installed on your machine.

npx @orbit-love/producthunt --products --user=username

# Add new votes or comments
npx @orbit-love/producthunt --votes --id=projectid
npx @orbit-love/producthunt --comments --id=projectid

# Add new votes and comments
npx @orbit-love/producthunt --votes --comments --id=projectid

By default this will get the last 1 hours worth of votes, but this can be explicitly overridden:

npx @orbit-love/producthunt --votes --id=projectid --hours=12
