Chatbot, Oauth2, curl requests?

Can this process be done using a middleware of my own or is it better to use something like Passport?

I don’t use passport myself. I wrote my own stuff to handle token refresment.

Passport from a loose reading feels more like it’s for user session management for a website, not key management for a chat bot

I noticed most of documentation for twitch is in curl, can it be convered to a “regular” GET / POST

cURL is universal, an example cURL call can be converted to be used in any cURL helper function that exists in the language you are working in.

@xAtri

“regular” GET / POST request using something like Express

Express is for serving websites, not making HTTP/cURL requests

For Node, you are looking at using fetch, got or similar cURL/HTTP fetching library
