TVDB API

This module provides an abstraction layer to thetvdb.com API (which returns XML documents). It allows you to perform hits against the API with Javascript class methods and converts all the results from XML to JSON.

Installation

npm install tvdb-client

Usage

This module allows you to search for a serie with two methods:

1. findById
2. findByName

Below is a quick example of how to use the findByName method inside your Express app:

var express = require('express'),
app = express(),
api = require('tvdb-client')('YOUR_API_KEY');

app.get('/', function(req, res) {
  var show = api.findByName('The Big Bang Theory');
    res.end({ serie: show }); 
  });

app.listen(3000);

Make sure to add your API key as an argument to the module otherwise your request won't be processed by the API.

Tests

Tests are written using the Mocha framework and the Chai && Chai as Promised libraries.

TODO

• Mock the API calls inside the tests
• Allow user to perform search in other langages

Contributions

Contributions are more than welcome as long as they include tests.
