Delighted API Node Client

Official Node.js client for the Delighted API.

Note: This is intended for server-side use only and does not support client-side JavaScript.

Installation

Run npm install delighted --save to install.

Configuration

To get started, you need to require the client and configure it with your secret API key. You can require, configure and initialize the client in one go:

var delighted = require('delighted')('YOUR_API_KEY');

For further options, read the advanced configuration section.

Note: Your API key is secret, and you should treat it like a password. You can find your API key in your Delighted account, under Settings > API.

Usage

All resources can be accessed directly off of the delighted instance we created above. All actions immediately return a promise. In this initial example we'll create a person and log out their attributes when the promise resolves (finishes):

var params = {
  email: '[email protected]',
  name:  'Jony Appleseed',
  delay: 86400
};

delighted.person.create(params).then(function(person) {
  console.log(person);
});

Previously subscribed people can be unsubscribed:

delighted.unsubscribe.create({ person_email: '[email protected]' });

Get a paginated list of people who have unsubscribed:

delighted.unsubscribe.all({ page: 2}).then(function(responses) {
  responses.length; // => 20
});

Get a paginated list of people whose emails have bounced:

delighted.bounce.all({ page: 2}).then(function(responses) {
  responses.length; // => 20
});

Pending survey requests can be deleted:

delighted.surveyRequest.deletePending({ person_email: '[email protected]' });

Responses can be created for somebody using their id. Note that the id is not the same as their email:

delighted.surveyResponse.create({ person: person.id, score: 10 });

Get a paginated list of all responses:

delighted.surveyResponse.all({ page: 2 }).then(function(responses) {
  responses.length; // => 20
});

Retrieve summary metrics of all responses:

delighted.metrics.retrieve();

Advanced configuration & testing

All of the connection details can be configured through the delighted constructor, primarily for testing purposes. The available configuration options are:

• host – defaults to api.delighted.com
• port – defaults to 443
• base – defaults to /v1
• headers – defaults to specifying application/json for Accept and Content-Type and sets User-Agent to identify the Delighted API Node Client and version.
• scheme – defaults to https

Testing with real requests against a mock server is the easiest way to integration test your application. For convenience, and our own testing, a test server is provided with the delighted package. Below is an example of testing the person resource within an application:

var delighted  = require('delighted');
var mockServer = require('delighted/server');
var instance   = delighted('DUMMY_API_KEY', {
  host:   'localhost',
  port:   5678,
  base:   '',
  scheme: 'http'
});

var mapping = {
  'POST /v1/people': {
    status: 201,
    body: { email: '[email protected]' }
  }
};

var server = mockServer(5678, mapping);

Setting up the server only requires a port and a mapping. The mapping should match an exact endpoint and will send back a JSON body with the specified status code. With the server running you can then make a request:

instance.person.create({ email: '[email protected]' }).then(function(response) {
  console.log(response); //=> { email: 'foo@exampe.com' }
});
