Node BreweryDB wrapper

This is a node package (WIP) wrapper for the http://www.brewerydb.com/ service API.

Setup

Install the library.

npm instal https://github.com/DanielOchoa/node-brewery-db

Import the library.

var BreweryDb = require('node-brewerydb');

Create a new instance by passing an object with the apiKey.

var client = new BreweryDb({apiKey: yourApiKey});

How to use

You can access the restful resources from BreweryDB as follows:

For Beers

For the beers endpoint, just call the beers method and pass in any extra parameters from the BreweryDB docs. For example, to get a beer by name:

client.beers({name: 'Tecate'}, function(err, res) {
  if (err) {
    // handle errors
  }
  console.log(res);
});

Or with promises:

return client.beers({name: 'Tecate'}).then(function(res) {
  console.log(res);
}, function(err) {
  // in case an error happens.
});

To get a single beer, you need to pass the beer id as follows:

client.beer('IPhAuu', function(err, res) {
  console.log(res);
});

You can also get nested resources for any given resource that allows it, see the BreweryDB docs. For example, beers take a nested resource:

client.beer('IPhAuu', 'breweries', function(err, res) {
  // here are the breweries for this particular beer.
  console.log(res);
});

You can also access any other nested resource for a beer, such as adjunt, event and fermentable.

TODO

So far we can access beer/beers, nested resources for beer, styles and brewery/breweries. Work needs to be done to access other resources.
