Getting an API Key
Once signed into Steam, head over to http://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey to generate an API key.
Usage
First, we start by making a SteamAPI "user".
const SteamAPI = require('steamapi');
const steam = new SteamAPI('steam token');
Now, we can call methods on the steam
object.
For example, let's retrieve the SteamID64 of a user. SteamAPI provides a resolve
method, which accepts URLs and IDs.
steam.resolve('https://steamcommunity.com/id/DimGG').then(id => {
console.log(id);
});
Now let's take that ID, and fetch the user's profile.
steam.getUserSummary('76561198146931523').then(summary => {
console.log(summary);
});
