A Node.js SDK to make voice calls and send SMS using Plivo and to generate Plivo XML
Weekly downloads
Readme
The Node.js SDK simplifies the integration of communications into your Node.js applications through the Plivo REST API. You will be able to use the SDK to make voice calls, send SMS, and generate Plivo XML to manage your call flows.
Install the SDK using npm
$ npm install plivo
If you have the 0.4.1
version (a.k.a legacy) already installed, you may have to first uninstall it before installing the new version.
For features in beta, use the beta branch:
$ npm install plivo@beta
To make the API requests, you need to create a Client
and provide it with authentication credentials (which can be found at https://console.plivo.com/dashboard/).
We recommend that you store your credentials in the PLIVO_AUTH_ID
and the PLIVO_AUTH_TOKEN
environment variables, so as to avoid the possibility of accidentally committing them to source control. If you do this, you can initialise the client with no arguments and it will automatically fetch them from the environment variables:
let plivo = require('plivo');
let client = new plivo.Client();
Alternatively, you can specifiy the authentication credentials while initializing the Client
.
let plivo = require('plivo');
let client = new plivo.Client('<auth_id>', '<auth_token>');
The SDK uses consistent interfaces to create, retrieve, update, delete and list resources. The pattern followed is as follows:
client.resources.create(name,params); // Create
client.resources.get(id); // Get
client.resources.update(params); // Update
client.resources.delete(id); // Delete
client.resources.list({limit:5,offset:0}); // List all resources, max 20 at a time
Also, using client.resources.list()
would list the first 20 resources by default (which is the first page, with limit
as 20, and offset
as 0). To get more, you will have to use limit
and offset
to get the second page of resources.
let plivo = require('plivo');
let client = new plivo.Client();
client.messages.create({
src: '+14156667778',
dst: '14156667777',
text: 'Hello, this is a sample text from Plivo',
}).then(function(response) {
console.log(response)
});
let plivo = require('plivo');
let client = new plivo.Client();
client.calls.create(
'+14156667778',
'+14156667777',
'http://answer.url'
).then(function(response) {
console.log(response)
});
let plivo = require('plivo');
let client = new plivo.Client('<auth_id>', '<auth_token>');
client.lookup.get('<number-goes-here>')
.then(function(response) {
console.log(response);
});
let plivo = require('plivo');
let response = new plivo.Response();
let speak_body = "Hello, world!";
response.addSpeak(speak_body);
console.log(response.toXML());
This generates the following XML:
<Response>
<Speak>Hello, world!</Speak>
</Response>
let plivo = require('plivo');
var PhloClient = plivo.PhloClient;
var phloClient = phlo = null;
phloClient = new PhloClient('<auth-id>', '<auth-token>');
phloClient.phlo('<phlo_id>').run().then(function (result) {
console.log('Phlo run result', result);
});
More examples are available here. Also refer to the guides for configuring the Express server to run various scenarios & use it to test out your integration in under 5 minutes.

make build
. This will create a docker container in which the sdk will be setup and dependencies will be installed.The entrypoint of the docker container will be the
setup_sdk.sh
script. The script will handle all the necessary changes required for local development. It will also package the sdk and reinstall it as a dependecy for the test program.
