See the official documentation for the Shikimori API.

Installation

npm

$ npm i --save node-shikimori

yarn

$ yarn add node-shikimori

Usage

To use the library, simply import it into your project and create an instance of a client. You can then use the various methods provided by the client to access the Shikimori API.

import { client } from 'node-shikimori';

const shikimori = client();

const result = await shikimori.animes.byId({
    id: 1
});

console.log(result);

Authorization

For more additional information see the Official Shikimori OAuth2 Guide.

Register your Shikimori Application: This will provide you with a client_id and client_secret that you will need to use OAuth2.
Redirect user to the Shikimori authorization endpoint: This endpoint will prompt the user to grant your application access to their resources. After the user grants access, Shikimori will redirect them back to your application with an authorization code.
```
https://shikimori.one/oauth/authorize?client_id=CLIENT_ID&redirect_uri=REDIRECT_URI&response_type=code&scope=
```
Get an access token: Your application will need to exchange an authorization code for an AccessToken. Shikimori will respond with an access token that your application can use to access the restricted resources/endpoints.
```
import { auth } from 'node-shikimori';
```

const { getAccessToken } = auth({ clientId: 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID', clientSecret: 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET', });

const accessToken = await getAccessToken('YOUR_AUTH_CODE');


4. **Use access token to access protected resources:** Finally, your application can use the access token to access the user's protected resources. Be sure to handle any errors or expired tokens gracefully.
```ts
const shikimori = client();
shikimori.setAccessToken(YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN);

const currentUser = await shikimori.users.whoami();
console.log(currentUser)

5.Refresh access token: Access tokens have a limited lifespan of 1 day, so your application will need to refresh them periodically to maintain access to the user's resources. To do this use a refreshAccessToken function with the refresh token. Shikimori will respond with a new access token and refresh token that your application can use to continue accessing the user's resources.

const newAccessToken = await refreshAccessToken('YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN');
