Great question, and I honestly don't have a good answer.

Here's the history, I created this library as part of a different project when I was working at Domo (it was originally ported from the Python SDK). I asked the team maintaining the Java and Python SDKs if they'd like a Node version too since I had the start of one for my own project.

That's where this library started, but I don't think there has ever been clear expectations on who the owner of the library is. I assumed it was the API team since they owned the Python and Java SDKs, and I think they assumed it was me because I got the ball rolling.

Here's why I think there's someone better to be the main contributor for this library than me.

  1. I haven't been at Domo for some time now
  2. I don't use Domo or their APIs
  3. Even when at Domo, my daily responsibilities didn't require the use of the APIs, other than that one project that sparked the creation of that library, and I feel like owners of projects should be using them on a regular basis to know what works and what doesn't.

Perhaps @checketts can shed more light on the plans for this library. Will this have Domo representation to help the community keep this library going with enhancements to Domo APIs? Will there at least be someone who can review and approve PRs from the community? There are currently 2 open PRs that look to be valuable additions. Or does the README need to be updated with an UNMAINTAINED status and the NPM module deprecated?

I'll yield to @yunruiwatts or @rswingler for their analysis. I agree with @walexnelson that if no one is maintaining this library they should update the README appropriately.

I'm sure community contributions will be reviewed and merged, just poke the corresponding PR/Issue. I don't think anyone was aware @walexnelson wasn't maintaining this anymore.

And more than 1 year later, nothing changed :-(

I wanted to use this library, but I guess it's not a good idea...

Still no update. This seems to be a common thread among several of their repos...
