Connect your App to Multiple Messaging Channels in a Single Integration with W3C Open standard.
Broid Integrations is an open source project released by Broid that allows you to easily converse on all the major communication platforms (messaging & voice) without integrating each API.
It provides a suite of libraries to convert all messaging platforms events to Activity Streams 2 schemas.
TL;DR
With billions of daily users Messaging๐ฌ is now the prefered channel of communication but there is a clear lack of open standard for the various APIs.
Each one come with a specfic schema, docs, etc. We want to empower the community to built great things with messaging so we open-sourced our Premium API so that you can avoid the tedious work of integrating new channels and focus on your core product ๐ก.
A quick example showing off listening for new messages on Facebook Messenger and Discord with Observables.
npm i --save @broid/messenger @broid/discord rxjs ramda
const Rx = require("rxjs/Rx");
const BroidDiscord = require("@broid/discord");
const BroidMessenger = require("@broid/messenger");
const clients = {
discord: new BroidDiscord({token: 'DISCORD_TOKEN'}),
messenger: new BroidMessenger({token: 'FACEBOOK_TOKEN', tokenSecret: 'FACEBOOK_SECRET'})
};
Rx.Observable.merge(...Object.values(clients).map(client => client.connect()))
.subscribe({
next: data => console.log(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2)),
error: err => console.error(`Something went wrong: ${err.message}`),
});
Rx.Observable.merge(...Object.values(clients).map(client => client.listen()))
.subscribe({
next: message => console.log(JSON.stringify(message, null, 2)),
error: err => console.error(`Something went wrong: ${err.message}`),
});
