Request Vimeo API with generated AccessToken #21

Hi, i've try to use your library to request vimeo API and get specific channel videos.

this is my code :

var vimeo = new Vimeo(settings.vimeo.client_id, settings.vimeo.client_secret, settings.vimeo.access_token);
vimeo.request({
    path : 'channels/'+params.channel_id + '/videos',
    query : {
        sort        : 'date',
        direction   : 'desc'
    }
}, function (err, res) {
    if (err) {
        return callback(err);
    }
    callback(null, res);
});

If I try this code, i get this error on nodeJS :

Error: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>400 Bad Request</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Bad Request</h1>
<p>Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.<br />
</p>
</body></html>

    at IncomingMessage.emit (events.js:117:20)

    at process._tickDomainCallback (node.js:463:13)

I decide to test this request on postman and it works.

What is wrong ?

For this example i use the staffpicks channel. But why it works fine in postman and don't works with this library ?

The problem is in your library, i request directly the api with the request module and it works fine :

request({
    url : 'https://api.vimeo.com/channels/'+params.channel_id + '/videos',
    qs : {
        sort        : 'date',
        direction   : 'desc'
    },
    headers : {
        'Authorization' : 'Bearer ' + settings.vimeo.access_token
    },
    json : true
}, function (err, res, body) {
    if (err) {
        return callback(err);
    }
    if(res.statusCode !== 200){
        return callback(new Error('Vimeo API return an error : ' + res.statusCode));
    }
    callback(null, body);
});

Path must contain the leading forward slash, otherwise it loads api.vimeo.comchannels/staffpicks/videos. Your code should look like the following:

var vimeo = new Vimeo(settings.vimeo.client_id, settings.vimeo.client_secret, settings.vimeo.access_token);
vimeo.request({
    path : '/channels/'+params.channel_id + '/videos',
    query : {
        sort        : 'date',
        direction   : 'desc'
    }
}, function (err, res) {
    if (err) {
        return callback(err);
    }
    callback(null, res);
});

I'll make a note to check for this in our next release
