espn-node

This is a helper library for the ESPN API.

var espn = require('espn')('YOUR_ESPN_API_KEY');
espn.now( function (err, json) {
    if (err) return console.error(err);
    console.log(json);
}

Installation

To use espn-node in your project, simply add the following to your package.json file:

{
    ...
    "dependencies": {
        ...
        "espn": "0.0.1"
    }
}

Then run the following command to install the espn-node dependency as well as any others that are defined in the package.json file:

npm install

Alternate Installation

Instead of adding the dependency to a package.json file, you can download espn-node and all of its dependencies locally but issuing the following command:

npm install espn

Usage

To begin using the espn-node library, initialize an object with you ESPN API key:

var espn = require('espn')('YOUR_ESPN_API_KEY');

Then you can make calls to the ESPN API:

espn.now( function (err, json) {
    if (err) return console.error(err);
    console.log(json);
}
