#Customer.io Node Client

Clean and simple NodeJS wrapper for the Customer.io REST API. Designed specifically to be as similar as possible to the main Customer.io JavaScript client.

##Installation

npm install node-customerio --save

##Example

var customer = require('node-customerio');

// Configure the module to your account
customer.init('your_site_id', 'your_api_key');

// Identify a user 
customer.identify({
  id: '123',
  email: '[email protected]',
  created_at: new Date(2014, 09, 24) // can also pass UNIX timestamp here
});

// Delete a user
customer.delete('123');

// Track an event for a user
customer.track('123', 'boughtPingPongPaddle', {
  color: 'red'
});

##Methods

###customer.init(siteId, apiKey)

Set up the the module to work with your account by inputting your siteId and apiKey.

customer.init('your_site_id', 'your_api_key');

###customer.identify(properties)

Create/update a user in Customer.io, passing any properties.

Note: JavaScript dates are automatically converted to UNIX to comply with Customer.io's standard of timestamp policy.

Returns a When-style promise.

customer.identify({
  id: '123',
  email: '[email protected]',
  created_at: new Date(2014, 09, 24), // can also pass UNIX timestamp here
  steven: 'smith'
}).done(function (result) {
  console.log('done');
}, function (err) {
  console.log('oh noes!', err);
});

###customer.remove(customerId)

Removes a customer by id.

Returns a When-style promise.

customer.remove('547243166e8e449111f866bb').done(function () {
  console.log('done');
}, function (err) {
  console.log(err);
});

###customer.track(customerId, eventName, properties)

Track an event for a given customer. properties are optional.

Note: JavaScript dates are automatically converted to UNIX to comply with Customer.io's standard of timestamp policy.

Returns a When-style promise.

customer.track('123', 'boughtPingPongPaddle', { color: "red" }).done(function () {
  console.log('done');
}, function (err) {
  console.log('oh no', err);
});

##Why was this library built?

There is a recommended library which throws errors. Throwing errors is bad. Plus, When.js promises are the shizz for handling async flow.

Oh, and Customer.io is awesome, obviously!
