// Problem: We need a simple way to look at a user's badge count and JavaScript points // Solution: Use Node.js to connect to Treehouse's API to get profile information to print out
//Print Message funtion to console
function printMessage(username, badgeCount, points){
const message = ${username } has ${badgeCount} total badges and ${points} points in Javascript
;
console.log(message);
}
//printMessage("cengizdemir", 100, 2000000);
// Conntect to API URL(https://teamtreehouse.com/cengizdemir.json); //Go to nodejs Documentation to https request GetMethod https.get
//Require HTTPS Modules const https = require('https'); //const username = "cengizdemir";
function getProfile(username){
const request = https.get(https://teamtreehouse.com/${username}.json
, response =>{
//console.dir(response);//method,domain and a lof of variables
//console.log(response.statusCode);//200
let body = "";
// Read the data
response.on('data', data =>{
//console.log('data:', data);// data comes like a number
//console.log(typeof data); //object
//console.log('data:', data.toString()); // datas comes like a json
//console.log(typeof data); //object
body += data.toString();
});
response.on('end', ()=>{
//console.log(typeof body);//string
// Parse the date
const profile = JSON.parse(body);
//console.dir(profile); Like a orjinal format
//console.log(typeof profile);//object
// Print the data
printMessage(username, profile.badges.length, profile.points.JavaScript);
});
});
} //getProfile("cengizdemir"); //getProfile("chalkers"); //THIS IS AWESOME because chalkers comes before me the resion the https request response cycle finishes before mine, so it prints it out.
//forEach iterates over the array and passes each members into a callback function. const users = ["cengiz", "chalkers", "davemcfarland"];
users.forEach(getProfile);
//users.forEach(username => { // getProfile(username); //});
users.forEach(getProfile); doesn't work on my workspaces
