HUD.ai Javascript Client

A JavaScript interface to the Hud.ai API. To get started install via npm:

npm install --save hud-ai

Getting Started

First, you'll need to register a client application. This can currently only be done by reaching out to the engineering team.

Single Page Apps

const HudAi = require('hud-ai');

const client = HudAi.create({
  clientId: 'CLIENT_ID',
  redirectUri: 'http://www.example.com/oauth/callbacks/hud-ai'
});

// Send the user to the authorization URL, where they can choose to grant your
// app permissions to access the service on their behalf (if permission has
// already been given, they'll automatically be redirected)
window.location = client.getAuthorizeUri('token');

// token will be returned as the query param `authToken` to your redirect URL
const querystring = require('query-string');
const parsed = querystring.parse(location.hash);
client.setAccessToken(parsed.access_token);

NOTE: The process of token retrieval will need to be performed again when the token becomes invalid (they're currently valid for 30 days).

Server Applications

Because servers can be trusted to keep a secret, setup is much more straightforward.

Client Authentication:

const HudAi = require('hud-ai');

const client = HudAi.create({
  clientId: 'CLIENT_ID',
  clientSecret: 'CLIENT_SECRET'
});

Acting on behalf of a user:

const redirectUrl = client.getAuthorizeUri('code');

// Send the user to the authorization URL, where they can choose to grant your
// app permissions to access the service on their behalf (if permission has
// already been given, they'll automatically be redirected)

// the code to exchange will be returned as the query param `code` to your
// redirect URL
const querystring = require('query-string');
const parsed = querystring.parse(location.search);
client.setAuthorizationCode(parsed.code);
