Comparison of all PSN API wrappers for JavaScript

Comparison of all PSN API wrappers for JavaScript.md

I have tested all 4 wrappers for JavaScript

Library name	Is archived	Last commit	Can log in	Can return trophies	Can read messages	First encountered error
PSNjs	✔	2015	✖	?	?	{"error_code":4151,"error":"unauthorized_client","error_description":"Client does not have grant type: [\"implicit\",\"authorization_code\"]","docs":"http://central-auth.p1-np-eib.prod.navcloud.sonynei.net/docs/#api/centralauthservice/v1/oauth/authorize/get"}
gumer-psn	✔	2021	✖	?	?	{"error":"invalid_request","error_description":"Mandatory parameter 'code' is missing","docs":"https://auth.api.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/docs/","error_code":4098}
psn-api	✖	2021	✔	✖	✖	{"error":{"referenceId":"4941a051-7bb4-11ec-aa64-971307734cc4","code":2240513,"message":"Bad Request (path: sort)"}}
pxs-psn-api	✖	2020	✖	?	?	unauthorized_client

None of them work and the only one that may work in future is psn-api but it was specifically made for trofies. No python or php compilers to javascript available in our world yet.

My conclusion: it's impossible to make something working with PSN API unless you are really crazy mad man who decided to develop its own wrapper. In this case, please share it to the world or work on psn-api or PSNjs because they are the most promising libraries out there.

gumer-psn.js

import 'dotenv/config'
import gumerPSN from 'gumer-psn'

gumerPSN.init({
  debug: true,
  email: process.env.PSN_EMAIL,
  password: process.env.PSN_PASSWORD,
  npLanguage: "en",
  region: "us",
})

gumerPSN.getProfile(process.env.PSN_NICKNAME, function(error, profileData) {
		console.log(profileData)
})

psn-api.js

// import psnApi from 'psn-api'
// const { exchangeNpssoForCode, exchangeCodeForAccessToken, getUserTitles } = psnApi
require('dotenv').config()
const { exchangeNpssoForCode, exchangeCodeForAccessToken, getUserTitles } = require('psn-api')

async function main(){
  const accessCode = await exchangeNpssoForCode(process.env.PSN_NPSSO)
  const authorization = await exchangeCodeForAccessToken(accessCode)
  console.log(authorization.accessToken);

  const trophyTitlesResponse = await getUserTitles(
    { accessToken: authorization.accessToken },
    process.env.PSN_NICKNAME
  )
  console.log('trophies', trophyTitlesResponse)
}

main()

PSNjs.js

import 'dotenv/config'
import PSNjs from 'PSNjs'

const psn = new PSNjs({
    email: process.env.PSN_EMAIL,
    password: process.env.PSN_PASSWORD,
    debug: true,
    authfile: ".psnAuth"
});

psn.getUserTrophies((error, data) => {
    if (error) {
        console.log("Error fetching trophies: " + error);
        return
    }

    console.log(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));
})

pxs-psn-api.js

import 'dotenv/config'
import PSN from 'pxs-psn-api'
const api = new PSN

async function getProfile() {
    const access_token = await api.auth(process.env.PSN_NPSSO)
    console.log(accessToken);
    const profile = await api.getProfile(access_token, '4421126145254737307')
    return profile
}

getProfile()
