tumblr.js

JavaScript client library for the Tumblr API / npm: https://npmjs.org/package/tumblr.js

Create a Client

var tumblr = require('tumblr.js');
var client = tumblr.createClient({
  consumer_key: '<consumer key>',
  consumer_secret: '<consumer secret>',
  token: '<oauth token>',
  token_secret: '<oauth token secret>'
});

Or, if you prefer:

var tumblr = require('tumblr.js');
var client = new tumblr.Client({
	// ...
});

Example

// Show user's blog names
client.userInfo(function (err, data) {
	data.user.blogs.forEach(function (blog) {
		console.log(blog.name);
	});
});

Supported Methods

Below is a list of available methods and their purpose. Available options are documented on http://www.tumblr.com/docs/en/api/v2 and are specified as a JavaScript object, for example:

client.posts('seejohnrun', { type: 'photo' }, function (err, resp) {
  resp.posts; // use them for something
});

In most cases, since options are optional (heh) they are also an optional argument, so there is no need to pass an empty object when supplying no options, like:

client.posts('seejohnrun', function (err, resp) {
  resp.posts; // now we've got all kinds of posts
});
