How to initialize dhive client?
I've created a separate file named dhive_client.js file
Content of it are as follows.
I've added multiple API endpoints.
var dhive = require ( "@hiveio/dhive" ) ;
var client = new dhive . Client ( [
"https://api.hive.blog" ,
"https://api.deathwing.me" ,
"https://hive-api.arcange.eu" ,
"https://hived.emre.sh" ,
"https://api.openhive.network" ,
"https://rpc.ausbit.dev" ,
"https://rpc.mahdiyari.info" ,
"https://hive-api.3speak.tv" ,
"https://techcoderx.com" ,
] ) ;
module . exports = {
client ,
} ;
How to fetch notifications of an account using dhive library?
I would recommend creating a separate file
I created get_notifications.js file
Here are the content for it.
NOTE: I tried sending limit above 100 & it failed.
So, limit must not exceed 100.
async function getNotifications ( client , account ) {
try {
let data = await client . call ( "bridge" , "account_notifications" , {
account : account , //"sagarkothari88",
limit : 100 ,
} ) ;
return data ;
} catch ( e ) {
return false ;
}
}
module . exports = {
getNotifications ,
} ;
With above function in place, now you can easily getNotifications for any account.
Note that, I've used sagarkothari88 as account name.
You can use any account name / hive user.
It must not include @ sign.
If there is some error getting notifications, above function will simply return false.
const { client } = require ( "./dhive_client" ) ;
const { getNotifications } = require ( "./helper/get_notifications" ) ;
async function mainFunction ( ) {
const account = "sagarkothari88" ;
const data = await getNotifications ( client , account ) ;
console . log ( `Notifications data - ${JSON.stringify(data)}` ) ;
}
mainFunction ( ) ;
