Library Method Conventions

NOTE: All methods are Asynchronous, and will return a standard (err, res, body) params to your callback. Body will already be json parsed into a json object for easy handling.

Methods


.login(username, password, callback)

Call this first to authenticate before calling other methods.

Takes a username and password, the same ones you use to login on the okc website.

Upon success, response will automatically store a cookie for subsequent requests.


.getQuickmatch(callback)

This is the method you want to call first. It gets you a new user in the area. Json body will contain target_userid and username for yoou to call .rate, .visitUser, .getUserProfile.

Username is obtained via body.sn

Target_userid is obtained via body.tuid


.visitUser(username, callback)

Takes a username. This visit method will emulate you actually visiting the user via browser.

Will register on the user's visitors list, so they will know you visited them.

.rate(target_userid, score, callback)

Takes a user_id and a score rating integer (1-5). This is equivalent to the 1-5 star rating.


.getUserProfile(username, callback)

Returns a json of the user profile. Contains all the information as you would see if you visited the user's profile via browser. This will not register your name under the user's "visitor" list.


.getVisitors(callback)

Returns a list of your "stalkers" who have visited you.
