asynchronous
caching

This is a continued version of https://github.com/kuja/hamster

Installation

npm install eveonlinejs

Examples

var eveonlinejs = require('eveonlinejs')

// Print a list of skill groups
eveonlinejs.fetch('eve:SkillTree', function (err, result) {
  if (err) throw err

  for (var groupID in result.skillGroups) {
    console.log(result.skillGroups[groupID].groupName)
  }
})

// Set default parameters (useful for setting keyID and vCode)
eveonlinejs.setParams({
  keyID: '1234567',
  vCode: 'some random vcode'
})

// Default parameters will get merged with the parameters passed into fetch().
// The actual request will include all three parameters: keyID, vCode and characterID
eveonlinejs.fetch('char:AccountBalance', {characterID: 12345}, function (err, result) {
  if (err) throw err
  // do stuff
})

Client object

The eveonlinejs object is multi-purpose in that it is both a namespace container and an instance of eveonlinejs.Client. Client objects individually maintain their own cache state and server details. If you do not want to use the default eveonlinejs object, feel free to construct your own client objects as you see fit.

var eveonlinejs = require('eveonlinejs')
  , client = new eveonlinejs.Client({url: url, cache: cache})

client.fetch('...', function (err, result) {
  // ...
})

Caching

Easily extendible
Asynchronous store/read
Ships with eveonlinejs.cache.FileCache and eveonlinejs.cache.MemoryCache
Defaults to eveonlinejs.cache.MemoryCache (it is highly recommended you switch to FileCache)

var eveonlinejs = require('eveonlinejs')

eveonlinejs.setCache(new eveonlinejs.cache.FileCache({path: '...'}))

Multiple outgoing addresses

eveonlinejs.setInterface('123.123.123.123');
