MyAnimeList

OAuth 2.0 provider for MyAnimeList.

Also see the OAuth 2.0 guide.

Initialization

The redirect URI is optional.

import * as arctic from "arctic";

const mal = new arctic.MyAnimeList(clientId, clientSecret, null);
const mal = new arctic.MyAnimeList(clientId, clientSecret, redirectURI);

Create authorization URL

import * as arctic from "arctic";

const state = arctic.generateState();
const codeVerifier = arctic.generateCodeVerifier();
const url = mal.createAuthorizationURL(state, codeVerifier);

Validate authorization code

validateAuthorizationCode() will either return an OAuth2Tokens, or throw one of OAuth2RequestError, ArcticFetchError, UnexpectedResponseError, or UnexpectedErrorResponseBodyError. MyAnimeList returns an access token, the access token expiration, and a refresh token.

import * as arctic from "arctic";

try {
	const tokens = await mal.validateAuthorizationCode(code, codeVerifier);
	const accessToken = tokens.accessToken();
	const accessTokenExpiresAt = tokens.accessTokenExpiresAt();
	const refreshToken = tokens.refreshToken();
} catch (e) {
	if (e instanceof arctic.OAuth2RequestError) {
		// Invalid authorization code, credentials, or redirect URI
		const code = e.code;
		// ...
	}
	if (e instanceof arctic.ArcticFetchError) {
		// Failed to call `fetch()`
		const cause = e.cause;
		// ...
	}
	// Parse error
}

Refresh access tokens

Use refreshAccessToken() to get a new access token using a refresh token. MyAnimeList returns the same values as during the authorization code validation. This method also returns OAuth2Tokens and throws the same errors as validateAuthorizationCode()

import * as arctic from "arctic";

try {
	const tokens = await mal.refreshAccessToken(refreshToken);
	const accessToken = tokens.accessToken();
	const accessTokenExpiresAt = tokens.accessTokenExpiresAt();
	const refreshToken = tokens.refreshToken();
} catch (e) {
	if (e instanceof arctic.OAuth2RequestError) {
		// Invalid authorization code, credentials, or redirect URI
	}
	if (e instanceof arctic.ArcticFetchError) {
		// Failed to call `fetch()`
	}
	// Parse error
}

Get user profile

Use the /users endpoint.

const response = await fetch("https://api.myanimelist.net/v2/users/@me", {
	headers: {
		Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`
	}
});
const user = await response.json();
