Yo API Package for Meteor

This is a wrapper for the Yo API service for use in a Meteor project.

Install

To install in a new project:

meteor add paulm:yo-meteor

This package uses the http Meteor package, so it will automatically add that in for you.

How to Use

Define the Yo API on the server side of the Meteor app:

if (Meteor.isServer) {
    var yo = new yoAPI('YOUR_YO_API_KEY');
}

Now you can send a Yo to everyone with one line on the server side:

yo.all()

Attach a link to that Yo like this:

yo.all('http://meteor.com')

Or send a Yo to one person:

yo.one('PAULM')

What a link:

yo.one('PAULM', 'http://atmospherejs.com')

Or get your Yo subscribers count:

yo.subscribers()

To send a Yo from an action on the client side, set up a Meteor.method on the server side of the Meteor app:

Meteor.methods({
    yoAll: function(){
        return yo.all()
    },
    yoOne: function(user){
        return yo.one(user)
    },
    yoSubscribers: function(){
        return yo.subscribers()
    }
});

Then call the Yo API method from someplace on the client side:

Meteor.call('yoAll');

or

Meteor.call('yoOne', username, function(err, result){
    if(!err){
        console.log(result)
    }
});

or

Meteor.call('yoSubscribers', function(err, result){
    if(!err){
        alert(result.data.result) // This is where the count is in the result.
    }
});
