Installation

npm install @onebotchat/onebot-node

Usage

Use OneBot's Getting Started Guide to get set up to use OneBot's API.

Import and initialize a client using an integration token or an OAuth access token.

const Client = require('@onebotchat/onebot-node');

// Initializing a client
const client = new Client(process.env.ACCESS_TOKEN, {});

Make a request to any OneBot API endpoint.

See the complete list of endpoints in the API reference.

(async () => {
  const response = await client.listIMAccounts({});
})();

Each method returns a Promise which resolves the response.

console.log(response);

[
  {
    "id": "Sax3MES_sIdvV0sQO9-co",
    "user": {
      "id": "douyin|8b3f7f39-d27b-4e73-8290-d2949a79bc21",
      "connection_id": "F7-I0jScfZ0pa2_Y76Q9x",
      "user_id": "8b3f7f39-d27b-4e73-8290-d2949a79bc21"
      // ...
    },
    "presence": 0
  }
  // ...
]

Endpoint parameters are grouped into a single object. You don't need to remember which parameters go in the path, query, or body.

const response = await client.listContacts({
  im_account_id: '897e5a76-ae52-4b48-9fdf-e71f5945d1af',
  limit: 50,
});

Send accounts' commands to OneBot API

See the complete list of commands in the API reference.

await client.sendPrivateMessage({
  account_id: '897e5a76-ae52-4b48-9fdf-e71f5945d1af@douyin',
  user_id: '897e5a76-ae52-4b48-9fdf-e71f5945d1af@douyin',
  message: {
    type: MessageType.Text,
    body: {
      content: 'hello',
    },
  },
});

Handle accounts' events from OneBot API.

See the complete list of events in the API reference.

client.onNewMessageReceived((evt: MessageReceivedEvent) => {
  console.log(`new message id: ${evt.data.id}`);
});

Handling errors

If the API returns an unsuccessful response, the returned Promise rejects with a APIResponseError.

The error contains properties from the response, and the most helpful is code. You can compare code to the values in the APIErrorCode object to avoid misspelling error codes.

const { Client, APIErrorCode } = require('@onebotchat/onebot-node');

try {
  const response = await client.listContacts({
    account_id: '897e5a76-ae52-4b48-9fdf-e71f5945d1af',
  });
} catch (error) {
  if (error.code === APIErrorCode.ObjectNotFound) {
    //
    // For example: handle by asking the user to select a different database
    //
  } else {
    // Other error handling code
    console.error(error);
  }
}

Logging

The client emits useful information to a logger. By default, it only emits warnings and errors.

If you're debugging an application, and would like the client to log response bodies, set the logLevel option to LogLevel.DEBUG.

const { Client, LogLevel } = require('@onebotchat/onebot-node');

const client = new Client(process.env.ACCESS_TOKEN, {
  logLevel: LogLevel.DEBUG,
});

You may also set a custom logger to emit logs to a destination other than stdout. A custom logger is a function which is called with 3 parameters: logLevel, message, and extraInfo. The custom logger should not return a value.

Client options

The Client supports the following options on initialization. These options are all keys in the single constructor parameter.

| Option | Default value | Type | Description | | ----------- | ------------------------------------- | ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | logLevel | LogLevel.WARN | LogLevel | Verbosity of logs the instance will produce. By default, logs are written to stdout. | | timeoutMs | 60_000 | number | Number of milliseconds to wait before emitting a RequestTimeoutError | | baseUrl | "https://api.onebot.chat/client/v1" | string | The root URL for sending API requests. This can be changed to test with a mock server. | | logger | Log to console | Logger | A custom logging function. This function is only called when the client emits a log that is equal or greater severity than logLevel. | | agent | Default node agent | http.Agent | Used to control creation of TCP sockets. A common use is to proxy requests with https-proxy-agent |

TypeScript

This package contains type definitions for all request parameters and responses.

Because errors in TypeScript start with type any or unknown, you should use the isOneBotClientError type guard to handle them in a type-safe way. Each OneBotClientError type is uniquely identified by its error.code. Codes in the APIErrorCode enum are returned from the server. Codes in the ClientErrorCode enum are produced on the client.

try {
  const response = await client.listContacts({
    /* ... */
  });
} catch (error: unknown) {
  if (isOneBotClientError(error)) {
    // error is now strongly typed to OneBotClientError
    switch (error.code) {
      case ClientErrorCode.RequestTimeout:
        // ...
        break;
      case APIErrorCode.ObjectNotFound:
        // ...
        break;
      case APIErrorCode.Unauthorized:
        // ...
        break;
      // ...
      default:
        // you could even take advantage of exhaustiveness checking
        assertNever(error.code);
    }
  }
}

Requirements

This package supports the following minimum versions:

• Runtime: node >= 12
• Type definitions (optional): typescript >= 4.2

Earlier versions may still work, but we encourage people building new applications to upgrade to the current stable.
