#And Bang API Client
Just include the script in your HTML
<script src="andbang.js"></script>
Then write some JS
// init an instance of the API connection
var api = new AndBang();
// then log in
api.validateToken('your access token', function (err, yourUser) {
window.me = yourUser;
});
// 'ready' is triggered when you're successfully logged in
api.on('ready', function () {
// once 'ready' has been triggered
// all your normal API functions are available
// as function calls.
// for example, we can just fetch our teams
// and pass it a callback.
api.getMyTeams(function (err, myTeams) {
window.teams = myTeams;
});
});
It uses socket.io under the covers so you get realtime, seemless API access that's as easy as AJAX.
Have fun!
