Byte-API

A simple API Wrapper around the Byte.co app. Single dependancy, utilizing node-fetch as the http client.

setup

if you use npm,

npm install byte-api

if you use yarn,

yarn add byte-api

Code

All methods that interact with your user account (Most that query the api) require you to be authorized or logged in first, as shown below.

const Byte = require("byte-api");

const Client = new Byte.Client("YourAuthorizationToken");

Client.setProfileColor(1) // Sets the user's profile color
.then((res) => {
    console.log(res);
})

Client.setBio("Just a random Bio") // Changes your BIO.
.then((res) => {
    console.log(res);
})

There are some exceptions though, they're accessed in a different way.

const Byte = require("byte-api");

Byte.Isolated.checkName("potato") // Checks a usernames avability without the need for authorization.
.then((res) => console.log(res))

Getting a Token

You can get a token by sniffing the http traffic of the app. in every request, there will be a header saying "Authorization: Token", copy that token and use it to logon. To do this, I used HttpCanary (From the Android App Store) and Nox App Player.

To-Do

• Abide by x-ratelimit.
• Find a way to allow login just using Username and Password.
• Add more endpoints.
• Add paging through feed.
• Create classes for posts, users, and all those other things.
• add a d.ts file

I have no standards for accepting PRs or issues. Have a neat idea? impliment it and send it over, and if it works well I'll approve. Though I might reformat it to fit the style of the rest of the repository.

If you're better at Javascript then me, feel free to make corrections or tell me how I can do something better!
