ATT Usage Scraper

This is a simple Node module to download and parse your current month's billed usage from the ATT customer portal. Fair warning: this project is not associated with or supported by ATT; you should personally consult your customer service agreement and other applicable terms prior to using.

This module handles scraping of the CSV export and (optionally) parsing. Because the raw download format is rather poor for automated consumption/analysis, parsing is performed by default.

Installation

npm install --save @claygregory/att-usage

This project uses PhantomJS (via Horseman), so also make sure PhantomJS is available in your path or you have the phantomjs-prebuilt/phantomjs npm package installed.

Usage

Basic Example

The currentBilledUsage function is called with the portal login creditials, returning a promise that will resolve to an array of line item objects (see format below), parsed from the downloaded CSV.

const att_usage = require('@claygregory/att-usage');

att_usage.currentBilledUsage('<portal username or phone number>', '<portal password>')
  .then(usage => {
    usage.forEach(line => {
       //process each line item based on below object formats
    });
  });

Object Formats

Phone Call

{
  type: 'Call',
  date: '1/24/2017',
  time: '02:29PM',
  contact: '<remote phone number>',
  direction: 'Incoming',
  duration_m: 20,
  user: '<mobile phone number>'
}

SMS/MMS

{
  date: '01/24/2017',
  time: '07:57PM',
  contact: '<remote phone number>',
  type: 'Message',
  direction: 'Outgoing',
  user: '<mobile phone number>'
}

Date Transfer

{
  date: '01/24/2017',
  time: '12:02PM',
  type: 'Data Transfer',
  size_kb: 263,
  user: '<mobile phone number>'
},

Raw CSV Example

Alternatively, the options parameter can disable parsing of the resulting CSV. In this case, the returned promise will resolve to a string containing the raw CSV payload from the portal.

const att_usage = require('@claygregory/att-usage');

att_usage.currentBilledUsage('<portal username or phone number>', '<portal password>', {parse: false})
  .then(csvString => {
    //process resulting string as CSV
  });
