tinder-api-promise

Please note, that this is still a work in progress so it only has a handful of features

A tinder api wrapper with promises.

Works in Node and in browser.

Installation

npm install tinder-api-promise

Example

const TinderAPI = require('tinder-api-promise')
const client = new TinderAPI()

client.auth('<facebook_token>', '<facebook_id>')
  .then(() => {
    client.getRecommended()
      .then(res => {
        let { results } = res.data

        results.map(result => {
          client.like(result.user._id)
            .then(() => console.log('Liked a user'))
        })
      })
  })

or if you already have tinder auth token

const TinderAPI = require('tinder-api-promise')
const client = new TinderAPI({
  xAuthToken: '<tinder-auth-token>'
})

client.getRecommended()
  .then(res => {
    let { results } = res.data

    results.map(result => {
      client.like(result.user._id)
        .then(() => console.log('Liked a user'))
    })
  })

API

• Creating instance

  TinderAPI( { options } )

  Use default one

  const client = new TinderAPI()
  

  or specify options object

  const client = new TinderAPI({
    // If for whatever reason tinder decides to change their api url and I don't update the package
    baseURL: 'https://api.gotinder.com/',
    // Set custom headers or override default ones
    headers: {
      'User-agent': 'Tinder Android Version 4.5.5',
      'os_version': 23,
      'platform': 'android',
      'app-version': 1637,
      'Accept-Language': 'en',
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    // This is set once the user is authorized.
    // You may also set this if you already have a tinder token
    xAuthToken: undefined,
    // Default request timeout
    timeout: 10000,
    // Used when getting updates
    lastActivityDate: moment().toISOString()
  })
  

• Authorizing

  client.auth('<facebook_token>', '<facebook_id>')

  Since, the old Facebook app method doesn't work, you can get Facebook token and id following this link, opening devtools and look for confirm?dpr=1 in the network tab. And then traverse the object till you find access token. (Credits to Paul Xu)

  Or use tools like tinderauth or tindercred

  Example

  const client = new TinderAPI()
  
  client.auth('<facebook_token>', '<facebook_id>')
    .then(res => {
      // Do stuff
    }).catch(e => console.log(e))

  If you already have tinder token, then you can skip authorizing and just specify X-Auth-Token in constructor.

  Example

  const client = new TinderAPI({ xAuthToken: '<tinder-token>' })
  
  // Do stuff

• Get recommended

  client.getRecommended()

  Gets a list of recommended people

  Example

  const client = new TinderAPI()
  
  client.auth('<facebook_token>', '<facebook_id>')
    .then(() => {
      client.getRecommended()
        .then(res => {
          // Do stuff
        })
    }).catch(e => console.log(e))
