Welcome to the node.js client for the SNAPPA API by PA (Press Association).

Installation

To utilise the SNAPPA API client for node.js install the npm module.

npm install pa-snappa-api-client

Usage

After the installation of the npm package you can start making calls to the SNAPPA API. Initially you need to instantiate the client, using your API key:

const client = new SnappaClient({ baseUrl: 'http://snappa.api.press.net/v1-beta', apikey: '<YOUR API KEY' });

Once instantiated you can make requests against the Feeds, Assets and Tags resources provided by the SNAPPA API as follows:
