caliph-api

library1.0.1jsnpmunverified

Version 1.0.1. Unmaintained Node.js library offering a collection of Indonesian-centric scrapers, downloaders, encryption utilities, and random generators. Provides easy-to-use promise-based API for services like TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and local Indonesian data (cuaca, gempa, artinama). Released primarily for personal use; no active updates or community maintenance. Known for combining many heterogeneous APIs into a single package without consistent error handling or documentation. Alternatives include dedicated scrapers like ytdl-core, instagram-scraper, or locale-specific packages.

Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ const api = require('caliph-api');

✗ import api from 'caliph-api';

Package only provides CommonJS module; ESM import will fail.

api.encrypt.binary.enc

✓ api.encrypt.binary.enc('hello');

✗ api.encrypt.binary.enc('hello'); // works but no type safety

Not exported individually; must access via main object.

api.info.gempa

✓ api.info.gempa().then(console.log);

✗ api.info.gempa(); // returns promise, must be awaited

All API methods return Promises.

Demonstrates basic usage including fetching info and binary encryption.

Debug

Known issues

deprecatedLibrary is effectively unmaintained; no updates or fixes.

fix

Use dedicated libraries like ytdl-core, instagram-scraper, etc.

affects: all

gotchaAll methods return Promises; forgetting to await will cause silent failures.

fix

Always use await or .then() on API calls.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaNo TypeScript definitions; all types are any.

fix

Create custom .d.ts or use JSDoc.

affects: all

gotchaSome endpoints (e.g., gempa) may be broken due to external API changes.

fix

Check GitHub issues before relying on specific features.

affects: all

breakingIncorrect usage of encrypt.binary.enc with non-string arguments may crash.

fix

Always pass strings.

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

TypeError: api.info.gempa is not a function

Method may have been removed or renamed.

fix

Check documentation for updated method names; fallback to alternative.

Cannot find module 'caliph-api'

Module not installed or ESM context without proper transformation.

fix

Install with `npm install caliph-api` and use require, not import.

UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'enc' of undefined

api.encrypt is undefined due to missing dependencies or broken require.

fix

Ensure all dependencies are installed; try reinstalling.

Error: Request failed with status code 404
