node-zendesk

Example

var zendesk = require('node-zendesk'),
    fs      = require('fs');

var client = zendesk.createClient({
  username:  'username',
  token:     'token',
  remoteUri: 'https://remote.zendesk.com/api/v2'
});

client.users.list(function (err, req, result) {
  if (err) {
    console.log(err);
    return;
  }
  console.log(JSON.stringify(result[0], null, 2, true));//gets the first page
});

Take a look in the examples folder for more examples.

Install

Install using npm:

npm install node-zendesk

Using OAuth for Authentication

If you want to use an OAuth token to authenticate with Zendesk, pass in the oauth key with a value of true when creating the client.

You can learn more about obtaining OAuth tokens from Zendesk's developer site.

var zendesk = require('node-zendesk'),
    fs      = require('fs');

var client = zendesk.createClient({
  username:  'username',
  token:     'oauth_token',
  remoteUri: 'https://remote.zendesk.com/api/v2',
  oauth: true
});

Command Line Options for scripts

Below is a list of options you may use when calling any scripts you may have written

-s  --subdomain X
-u  --username X
-p  --password X
-t  --token X
-r  --remoteUri X
-hc --helpcenter
-v  --voice
--debug
--no-cookies
--timeout X(ms)
--proxy X
--encoding X

They are fairly self-explanatory no-cookies, timeout, proxy, encoding are all options to request. if using debug its reccomended you use --encoding utf8 or something similar as all you will see is a buffer otherwise in the response.

Because of these command line options you can try a few already from the examples section:

node examples/users-list.js -u <username> -t <token> -s <subdomain>
node examples/check-auth.js -u <username> -p <password> -s <subdomain>
node examples/check-auth-token.js -u <username> -t <token> -s <subdomain>
node examples/users-list.js -u <username> -t <token> -s <subdomain>

Disable Default scripting functionality / Enable library only

If you rather use this library/script runner as a library only you should disable the library from reading from process.argv and process.env by enabling disableGlobalState.

var zendesk = require('node-zendesk');

var client = zendesk.createClient({
  username:  'username',
  token:     'oauth_token',
  remoteUri: 'https://remote.zendesk.com/api/v2',
  disableGlobalState: true,
  debug: true // if you wan't to debug in library only mode, you'll have to include this
});
