Linodeius

This is a promise-based Node.js client for the Linode API.

NOTE: This is a work in progress.

Installation

As with any NPM package:

npm install linodeius

For use in an application:

const Linode = require('linodeius');
const api = new Linode(api_key);

api.linode.list().then(function(linodes) {
  // Use linodes data.
});

Configuration

The API key can be specified in a number of locations:

• The api_key argument to new Linode().
• The LINODE_API_KEY environment variable which specifies the key.
• The LINODE_API_KEY_FILE environment variable which specifies a path to a file containing the key.
• A .linode-key file in the same directory as this package.
• A .linode-key file in the user's home directory.

The key used to make an API call is dependent on those factors evaluated in that order of priority.

TODO

• Add support for batch operations via the api_action=batch mode.
