LiveJournal API

npm install livejournal

This package provides access to both XMLRPC and JSONRPC APIs for LiveJournal.

XMLRPC

Examples

// get posts inside the journal using XMLRPC
LiveJournal.xmlrpc.getevents({
  journal: 'brad',
  auth_method: 'noauth',
  selecttype: 'lastn',
  howmany: 20
}, function(err, value) {
  console.log(value.events);
});

// get post content using XMLRPC
LiveJournal.xmlrpc.getevents({
  journal: 'brad',
  auth_method: 'noauth',
  selecttype: 'one',
  ditemid: '29215'
}, function(err, post) {
  console.log(post.events[0]);
});

JSONRPC

There is no official public description of LiveJournal JSON RPC methods, but you can check Site.rpc.public on http://livejournal.com. Because the data is stored on CDN, you can access the data from anywhere.
