Social API

Social API is a NodeJS library that makes it easier to query various social sites' APIs.

Support

The support is currently limited, due to the project being under development.

The syntax, method names and parameters names are not stable.

Push requests are welcome.

We partially support:

  • Facebook page
  • Twitter
  • Instagram
  • Github
