HelloDomains

DNSimple Oauth application

First, you need to create the OAuth application in your DNSimple account. Go to your Account page and click on the Applications tab. Once you are there, click on the Developer applications tab and add a New application. You will need to provide an application name (something like Hello Domains Node will work) as well as a homepage URL (any HTTPS URL will do). For the authorization callback, enter http://localhost:4000/authorized. Once you've created the OAuth application on the DNSimple site, you will see Client ID and Client Secret values on the next page. You will need to copy these two values into your local configuration as described below.

Configuration

Copy config.example.js to config.js and set the clientId and clientSecret values so they match what is provided from the DNSimple OAuth application you added. The configuration file should look something like this:

'use strict';

var config = {}

config.hostname       = '127.0.0.1';
config.port           = 3000;
config.clientId       = '123abc456edf789abc';
config.clientSecret   = '059ebc4839cd8a8d9430da9245dd0';
config.session.secret = 'somelongrandomstring';

module.exports = config;

Start the Hello Domains app

First, install dependencies: npm install

Start the server with npm start or node server.js

Now you can visit http://localhost:3000 from your browser.
