## 🚀 Usage & Quick start

Sign up for an API key here: [Developer Account](https://developer.ebay.com/signin?tab=register).
Checkout API [examples](https://github.com/hendt/ebay-api/tree/master/examples).

### NodeJS

```javascript
import eBayApi from 'ebay-api';
// or:
// const eBayApi = require('ebay-api')

const eBay = new eBayApi({
  appId: '-- also called Client ID --',
  certId: '-- also called Client Secret --',
  sandbox: false
});

const item = await eBay.buy.browse.getItem('v1|254188828753|0');
console.log(JSON.stringify(item, null, 2));
```

#### Detailed configuration example
```javascript
import eBayApi from 'ebay-api';

const eBay = new eBayApi({
  appId: '-- also called Client ID --',
  certId: '-- also called Client Secret --',
  sandbox: false,

  siteId: eBayApi.SiteId.EBAY_US, // required for traditional APIs, see https://developer.ebay.com/DevZone/merchandising/docs/Concepts/SiteIDToGlobalID.html
  
  marketplaceId:  eBayApi.MarketplaceId.EBAY_US, // defautl. required for RESTful APIs
  acceptLanguage: eBayApi.Locale.en_US, // defautl
  contentLanguage: eBayApi.ContentLanguage.en_US, // defautl.

  // optional parameters, should be omitted if not used
  devId: '-- devId --', // required for traditional Trading API
  ruName: '-- eBay Redirect URL name --', // 'RuName' (eBay Redirect URL name) required for authorization code grant
  
  authToken: '--  Auth\'n\'Auth for traditional API (used by trading) --', // can be set to use traditional API without code grant
});
```

### Browser
Check out live example: [https://hendt.github.io/ebay-api/](https://hendt.github.io/ebay-api/).
Because of the eBay CORS problems a Proxy server is required to use the API in the Browser.

For testing purpose you can use `https://ebay.hendt.workers.dev/` url as proxy. You can also set up your own Proxy server. We have added a example for cloudfront workers: [https://github.com/hendt/ebay-api/blob/master/proxy/worker.js](https://github.com/hendt/ebay-api/blob/master/proxy/worker.js)

Or use [https://github.com/Rob--W/cors-anywhere](CORS Anywhere is a NodeJS proxy) (works very well with heroku.com).


```html
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/ebay-api@latest/lib/ebay-api.min.js"></script>
<script>
  const eBay = new eBayApi({
    appId: 'appId',
    certId: 'certId',
    sandbox: false
  });

  // eBay.req.instance is AxiosInstance per default
  eBay.req.instance.interceptors.request.use((request) => {
      // Add Proxy
      request.url = 'https://ebay.hendt.workers.dev/' + request.url;
      return request;
  });

  eBay.buy.browse.getItem('v1|254188828753|0').then(item => {
      console.log(JSON.stringify(item, null, 2));
  }).catch(e => {
      console.error(e);
  });
</script>
```

## 🐞 Debug
To see debug logs use `DEBUG=ebay:*` environment variable.

## 🔑 Access token types
See the full Documentation [here](https://developer.ebay.com/api-docs/static/oauth-token-types.html).

*Client credentials grant flow* mints a new Application access token.
*Authorization code grant flow* mints a new User access token.

### User access token (authorization code grant flow)
👉 Recommended for all API Calls.

> You must employ a User token to call any interface that accesses or modifies data that is owned by the user (such as user information and account data).
To get a User token, the users of your app must grant your application the permissions it needs to act upon their behalf. This process is called user consent. With the user consent flow, each User token contains the set of scopes for which the user has granted their permission [(eBay Token Types)](https://developer.ebay.com/api-docs/static/oauth-token-types.html).

### Application access token (client credentials grant flow)
👉 Recommended for API calls that will only request application data (`GET` method, and it's also restricted).

> Application tokens are general-use tokens that give access to interfaces that return application data. For example, many GET requests require only an Application token for authorization.
[(eBay Token Types)](https://developer.ebay.com/api-docs/static/oauth-token-types.html)

If no other token is set, this token will be obtained *automatically* in the process of calling an RESTful API.

### Auth'N'Auth
👉 The "old" way. Only works with Traditional API. 
Checkout the [Auth'N'Auth example](https://github.com/hendt/ebay-api/tree/master/examples/traditional/authNAuth.ts).

You can also generate the token on eBay developer page and use it directly (see Detailed configuration example).

## OAuth2: Exchanging the authorization code for a User access token

[eBay Docs](https://developer.ebay.com/api-docs/static/oauth-auth-code-grant-request.html)

```javascript
import eBayApi from 'ebay-api';

// 1. Create new eBayApi instance and set the scope.
const eBay = eBayApi.fromEnv();

eBay.OAuth2.setScope([
  'https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope',
  'https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope/sell.fulfillment.readonly',
  'https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope/sell.fulfillment'
]);

// 2. Generate and open Url and Grant Access
const url = eBay.OAuth2.generateAuthUrl();
console.log('Open URL', url);
```

After you granted success, eBay will redirect you to your 'Auth accepted URL' and add a query parameter `code`


### Express example
This is how it would look like if you use `express`:

```javascript
import eBayApi from 'ebay-api';

app.get('/success', async function(req, res) {
  // 3. Get the parameter code that is placed as query parameter in redirected page
  const code = req.query.code; // this is provided from eBay
  const eBay = eBayApi.fromEnv(); // or use new eBayApi()
  
  try {
    const token = await eBay.OAuth2.getToken(code);
    eBay.OAuth2.setCredentials(token);
    // store this token e.g. to a session
    req.session.token = token

    // 5. Start using the API
    const orders = await eBay.sell.fulfillment.getOrders()
    res.send(orders);
  } catch(e) {
    console.error(e)
    res.sendStatus(400)
  }
});
```

If token is already in session:

```js
import eBayApi from 'ebay-api';

app.get('/orders/:id', async function(req, res) {
  const id = req.params.id; 
  const eBay = eBayApi.fromEnv(); // or use new eBayApi(...)
  const token = req.session.token;
  if (!token) {
    return res.sendStatus(403);
  }

  eBay.OAuth2.setCredentials(token);
  
  // If token get's refreshed
  eBay.OAuth2.on('refreshAuthToken', (token) => {
    req.session.token = token;
  });
  
  try {
    // 5. Start using the API
    const order = await eBay.sell.fulfillment.getOrder(id);
    res.send(order);
  } catch(e) {
    console.error(e)
    res.sendStatus(400)
  }
});
```

## RESTful API

### How to set the Scope

```javascript
const eBay = new eBayApi({
  // ...
  scope: ['https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope']
});

// Or:
eBay.OAuth2.setScope([
  'https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope',
  'https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope/sell.fulfillment.readonly',
  'https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope/sell.fulfillment'
]);
```

### Use apix.ebay.com or apiz.ebay.com (beta) endpoints
For some APIs, eBay use a `apix`/`apiz` subdomain. To use these subdomains you can use `.apix`/`.apiz` before the api call like this:
```javascript
  eBay.buy.browse.apix.getItem() // now it will use https://apix.ebay.com
  eBay.buy.browse.apiz.getItem() // now it will use https://apiz.ebay.com
```

In any case eBay adds a new subdomain, it's also possible to configure whatever you want:
```javascript
  eBay.buy.browse.api({subdomain: 'apiy'}).getItem() // now it will use https://apiy.ebay.com
```

### How to refresh the token
If `autoRefreshToken` is set to true (default value) the token will be automatically refreshed when eBay response with `invalid access token` error.

Use Event Emitter to get the token when it gets successfully refreshed.
```javascript
eBay.OAuth2.on('refreshAuthToken', (token) => {
  console.log(token)
  // Store this token in DB
});

// for client token
eBay.OAuth2.on('refreshClientToken', (token) => {
  console.log(token)
  // Store this token in DB
});
```
To manuel refresh the auth token use `eBay.OAuth2.refreshAuthToken()` and for the client token `eBay.OAuth2.refreshClientToken()`.
Keep in mind that you need the 'refresh_token' value set.

```javascript
const token = await eBay.OAuth2.refreshToken();
// will refresh Auth Token if set, otherwise the client token if set.
```

## Additional request headers
Sometimes you want to add additional headers to the request like a GLOBAL-ID `X-EBAY-SOA-GLOBAL-ID`. 
You have multiple options to do this.

### RESTful API headers
```javascript
  const eBay = new eBayApi();

  eBay.buy.browse.api({headers: {
      'X-EBAY-SOA-GLOBAL-ID': 'EBAY-DE'
  }}).getItem('v1|382282567190|651094235351').then((item) => {
    console.log(item)
  })
```

### Traditional API headers
You can pass headers directly in the method call in the second parameter:
```javascript
eBay.trading.AddFixedPriceItem({
  Item: {
    Title: 'title',
    Description: {
      __cdata: '<div>test</div>'
    }
  }
}, {
  headers: {
    'X-EBAY-SOA-GLOBAL-ID': 'EBAY-DE'
  }
})
```

### Low level: use the Axios interceptor to manipulate the request
```javascript
  import eBayApi from 'ebay-api';
  const eBay = new eBayApi(/* {  your config here } */);

  eBay.req.instance.interceptors.request.use((request) => {
    // Add Header
    request.headers['X-EBAY-SOA-GLOBAL-ID'] = 'EBAY-DE';
    return request;
  })
```

### Handle JSON GZIP response e.g fetchItemAspects
You need a decompress library installed like `zlib`.

```bash 
npm install zlib # or yarn add zlib
```

```javascript
  import eBayApi from 'ebay-api';
  import zlib from 'zlib';

  const toString = (data) => new Promise((resolve) => {
    zlib.gunzip(data, (err, output) => {
      if (err) throw err;
      resolve(output.toString());
    });
  });

  const eBay = new eBayApi(/* {  your config here } */);

  try {
    const data = await eBay.commerce.taxonomy.fetchItemAspects(/* categoryTreeId */);
    const result = await toString(data);
    
    console.log(result)
  } catch (e) {
    console.error(e);
  }
```

## Controlling Traditional XML request and response
The second parameter in the traditional API has the following options:

```typescript
export type Options = {
  raw?: boolean // return raw XML
  parseOptions?: object // https://github.com/NaturalIntelligence/fast-xml-parser
  useIaf?: boolean // use IAF in header instead of Bearer
  headers?: Headers // additional Headers (key, value)
  hook?: (xml) => BodyHeaders // hook into the request to modify the body and headers
};
```

[Fast XML](https://github.com/NaturalIntelligence/fast-xml-parser) is used to parse the XML. You can pass the parse option to `parseOptions` parameter.

## Examples

### Trading - AddFixedPriceItem \(CDATA\)

You can submit your description using CDATA if you want to use HTML or XML.

```javascript
eBay.trading.AddFixedPriceItem({
  Item: {
    Title: 'title',
    Description: {
      __cdata: '<div>test</div>'
    }
  }
})
```

### Trading - ReviseFixedPriceItem (Update the price of an item)

```javascript
eBay.trading.ReviseFixedPriceItem({
  Item: {
    ItemID: 'itemId',
    StartPrice: 'startPrice'
  }
})
```

### Buy - getItem

```javascript
eBay.buy.browse.getItem('v1|382282567190|651094235351').then(a => {
    console.log(a);
}).catch(e => {
    console.log(e)
});
```

### Post-Order - getReturn

```javascript
eBay.postOrder.return.getReturn('5132021997').then(a => {
    console.log(a);
}).catch(e => {
    console.log(e)
});
```

### Finding - findItemsByProduct \(use XML attributes and value\)

```javascript
eBay.finding.findItemsByProduct({
  productId: {
    '@_type': 'ReferenceID',
    '#value': '53039031'
  }
})

// will produce:
// <productId type="ReferenceID">53039031</productId>
```

### Finding - findItemsIneBayStores

```javascript
eBay.finding.findItemsIneBayStores({
    storeName: 'HENDT'
}, {raw: true}).then(result => {
    // Return raw XML
    console.log(result);
});
```

### Finding - findItemsAdvanced \(findItemsByKeywords\)

```javascript
eBay.finding.findItemsAdvanced({
    itemFilter: [{
        name: 'Seller',
        value: 'hendt_de'
    }],
    keywords: 'katze'
}).then(result => {
    console.log(result);
});
```

### Trading - GetMyeBaySelling

```javascript
eBay.trading.GetMyeBaySelling({
    SoldList: {
        Include: true,
        Pagination: {
            EntriesPerPage: 20,
            PageNumber: 1
        }
    }
}).then(data => {
    console.log(data.results)
});
```

## FAQ
1. Do I need the [eBay OAuth Client](https://www.npmjs.com/package/ebay-oauth-nodejs-client) dependency?

No. This library has already all authentication implemented and support also auto refreshing token.

2. What does IAF mean?

IAF stands for IDENTITY ASSERTION FRAMEWORK.
The traditional API supports IAF. That means you can use the OAuth2 token with the traditional APIs.

3. Is it possible to Upload Pictures directly to EPS?

Yes. Checkout the [Browser](https://hendt.github.io/ebay-api/) example and [Node Example here](https://github.com/hendt/ebay-api/blob/master/examples/traditional/trading.UploadSiteHostedPictures.ts).
