Google Chat API client for Node.js

A comprehensive list of changes in each version may be found in the CHANGELOG.

Read more about the client libraries for Cloud APIs, including the older Google APIs Client Libraries, in Client Libraries Explained.

Table of contents:

Quickstart

Before you begin

  1. Select or create a Cloud Platform project.
  2. Enable billing for your project.
  3. Enable the Google Chat API API.
  4. Set up authentication with a service account so you can access the API from your local workstation.

Installing the client library

npm install @google-apps/chat

Using the client library

/**
 * This snippet has been automatically generated and should be regarded as a code template only.
 * It will require modifications to work.
 * It may require correct/in-range values for request initialization.
 * TODO(developer): Uncomment these variables before running the sample.
 */
/**
 *  Optional. The maximum number of spaces to return. The service might return
 *  fewer than this value.
 *  If unspecified, at most 100 spaces are returned.
 *  The maximum value is 1,000. If you use a value more than 1,000, it's
 *  automatically changed to 1,000.
 *  Negative values return an `INVALID_ARGUMENT` error.
 */
// const pageSize = 1234
/**
 *  Optional. A page token, received from a previous list spaces call.
 *  Provide this parameter to retrieve the subsequent page.
 *  When paginating, the filter value should match the call that provided the
 *  page token. Passing a different value may lead to unexpected results.
 */
// const pageToken = 'abc123'
/**
 *  Optional. A query filter.
 *  You can filter spaces by the space type
 *  (`space_type` (https://developers.google.com/chat/api/reference/rest/v1/spaces#spacetype)).
 *  To filter by space type, you must specify valid enum value, such as
 *  `SPACE` or `GROUP_CHAT` (the `space_type` can't be
 *  `SPACE_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED`). To query for multiple space types, use the `OR`
 *  operator.
 *  For example, the following queries are valid:
 *  ```
 *  space_type = "SPACE"
 *  spaceType = "GROUP_CHAT" OR spaceType = "DIRECT_MESSAGE"
 *  ```
 *  Invalid queries are rejected by the server with an `INVALID_ARGUMENT`
 *  error.
 */
// const filter = 'abc123'

// Imports the Chat library
const {ChatServiceClient} = require('@google-apps/chat').v1;

// Instantiates a client
const chatClient = new ChatServiceClient();

async function callListSpaces() {
  // Construct request
  const request = {};

  // Run request
  const iterable = chatClient.listSpacesAsync(request);
  for await (const response of iterable) {
    console.log(response);
  }
}

callListSpaces();

Supported Node.js Versions

Our client libraries follow the Node.js release schedule. Libraries are compatible with all current active and maintenance versions of Node.js. If you are using an end-of-life version of Node.js, we recommend that you update as soon as possible to an actively supported LTS version.

Google's client libraries support legacy versions of Node.js runtimes on a best-efforts basis with the following warnings:

  • Legacy versions are not tested in continuous integration.
  • Some security patches and features cannot be backported.
  • Dependencies cannot be kept up-to-date.

Client libraries targeting some end-of-life versions of Node.js are available, and can be installed through npm dist-tags. The dist-tags follow the naming convention legacy-(version). For example, npm install @google-apps/chat@legacy-8 installs client libraries for versions compatible with Node.js 8.

Versioning

This library follows Semantic Versioning.

This library is considered to be in preview. This means it is still a work-in-progress and under active development. Any release is subject to backwards-incompatible changes at any time.
