LinkedIn Node

npm install linkedin-node-new

You can run the test by cloning this repo and running:

npm install
node test/test

For setting up:

var linkedInObj = require('linkedin-node-new');

var linkedIn = new linkedInObj({
  id: 'MYCLIENTID',
  secret: 'MYCLIENTSECRET',
  scope: '', // optional, set the scope of your app
  redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:9000/#!/oauth/linkedin'
});

var url = linkedIn.createURL();

After you have obtained the 'code' (either via your redirect or elsewhere):

var code = ''; // put the short-time auth code in here.

linkedIn.getAccessToken(code, function(err, access_token) {
	console.log(err);
	console.log(access_token);
});

If you have saved your access token in some sort of session or cookie data, you can skip the authorization request:

var linkedIn = new linkedInObj({
  id: 'MYCLIENTID',
  secret: 'MYCLIENTSECRET',
  redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:9000/#!/oauth/linkedin',
  access_token: 'MYACCESSTOKEN'
});

Once authorized, you can perform typical REST services (https://developer.linkedin.com/documents/authentication for reference):

// GET
linkedIn.get('/v1/people/~:(id,first-name,last-name,headline,positions,picture-url,email-address)', function(err, res) {
  if(err) {
    return console.log(err);
  }

  console.log(res);
  console.log(res.positions.values[0]);
});

// POST

// PUT

// DELETE
