An OAuth2 API client library for Withings
Install the library from npm
npm install withings-node-oauth2
new WithingsNodeOauth2({
clientId: "YOUR-WITHINGS-CLIENT-ID",
clientSecret: "YOUR-WITHINGS-CLIENT-SECRET",
callbackURL: "YOUR-WITHINGS-CALLBACK-URL"
});
Make sure you replace the above values(clientId, clientSecret, and callbackURL) with your withings application details. If you don't have a withings developer account yet, go read Create your developer account and follow the instruction.
getAuthorizeURL(state: string, scope: string): string
This method takes two strings (state
, and scope
). state
is a value you define. It will be bound to the returned auth URL as a url query which can be used to make sure that the the redirect back to your site or app was not spoofed. scope
Is a comma-separated list of permission scopes you want to ask your user for. Click here to see the Index Data API section from withings to know which scope you should use.
getAccessToken(code: string): Promise<Object>
`getAuthorizeURL will redirect to your callback URL with a code query attached to it. That is your authorization code which can be used to request an access token.
This method will require the authorization code and will return the following payload
{
"status": 0,
"body": {
"userid": "user-id",
"access_token": "access-token",
"refresh_token": "refresh-token",
"scope": "requested scopes",
"expires_in": 10800,
"token_type": "Bearer"
}
}
You will mostly need the access_token to make further requests to withings server.
PS: Withings uses the status 0 to mean a successful response.
refreshAccessToken(refreshToken: string): Promise<Object>
If user's access token has expired, this is the method you will need to get a new access_token and be able to make requests again. PS: This also returns a new refresh token so you will need to overwrite the current one.
It will return the following payload
{
"status": 0,
"body": {
"userid": "user-id",
"access_token": "new access-token",
"refresh_token": "new refresh-token",
"scope": "requested scopes",
"expires_in": 10800,
"token_type": "Bearer"
}
}
getUserDevices(accessToken: string): Promise<Object>
Returns the list of user linked devices.
Example response
{
"status": 0,
"body": {
"devices": [
{
"type": "Scale",
"model": "Body Cardio",
"model_id": 6,
"battery": "medium",
"deviceid": "892359876fd8805ac45bab078c4828692f0276b1",
"hash_deviceid": "892359876fd8805ac45bab078c4828692f0276b1",
"timezone": "Europe/Paris",
"last_session_date": 1594159644
