Showdown Client

showdown-client is a Showdown client library written in JavaScript for Node.js (and io.js).

Installation

You can get this module using npm.

npm install showdown-client

Basic Usage

This library provides basic Showdown client functionality. For example, you can connect to main Showdown server like this.

var ShowdownClient = require('showdown-client');
var client = new ShowdownClient();
client.connect('showdown').then(function () {
    return client.login('username', 'password');
}).then(function () {
    return client.join('techcode');
});

Of course, that by itself is not really useful. Most of work is done by events. For example, if you want to listen for messages, you can listen to message event.

client.addListener('message', function (message) {
    console.log("Received message from " + message.user + " saying " + message.text);
});
