themeparks

An unofficial API library for accessing ride wait times and park opening times for many theme parks around the world, including Disney, Universal and SeaWorld parks.

Roadmap | Documentation | Change Log | Supported Parks

Install

npm install themeparks --save

Migrate from themeparks 4.x

If you have been using themeparks 4.x, please follow this guide to migrate from themeparks 4.x to themeparks 5.x

Settings

You can change some settings of the library by editing the properties of the Themeparks.Settings object.

Example Use

// include the Themeparks library
const Themeparks = require("themeparks");

// configure where SQLite DB sits
// optional - will be created in node working directory if not configured
// Themeparks.Settings.Cache = __dirname + "/themeparks.db";

// access a specific park
//  Create this *ONCE* and re-use this object for the lifetime of your application
//  re-creating this every time you require access is very slow, and will fetch data repeatedly for no purpose
const DisneyWorldMagicKingdom = new Themeparks.Parks.WaltDisneyWorldMagicKingdom();

// Access wait times by Promise
const CheckWaitTimes = () => {
    DisneyWorldMagicKingdom.GetWaitTimes().then((rideTimes) => {
        rideTimes.forEach((ride) => {
            console.log(`${ride.name}: ${ride.waitTime} minutes wait (${ride.status})`);
        });
    }).catch((error) => {
        console.error(error);
    }).then(() => {
        setTimeout(CheckWaitTimes, 1000 * 60 * 5); // refresh every 5 minutes
    });
};
CheckWaitTimes();

// you can also call GetOpeningTimes on themeparks objects to get park opening hours

Proxy

If you wish to use themeparks with a proxy, you can pass a proxy agent when you construct the park object.

// include the Themeparks library
const Themeparks = require("themeparks");

// include whichever proxy library you want to use (must provide an http.Agent object)
const SocksProxyAgent = require('socks-proxy-agent');

// create your proxy agent object
const MyProxy = new SocksProxyAgent("socks://socks-proxy-host", true);

// create your park object, passing in proxyAgent as an option
const DisneyWorldMagicKingdom = new Themeparks.Parks.WaltDisneyWorldMagicKingdom({
    proxyAgent: MyProxy
});

Development

Running Tests

themeparks supports mocha unit tests. Install mocha with npm install -g mocha

Run the following to test the library's unit tests (this will build the library and then run functional offline unit tests):

npm test

You can also run unit tests against the source js files using npm run testdev.

There is a separate test for checking the library still connects to park APIs correctly. This is the "online test".

npm run testonline

You can also test an individual park using the PARKID environment variable, for example:

PARKID=UniversalStudiosFlorida npm run testonline

Debug Mode

Themeparks supports the standard NODE_DEBUG environment variable. Pass the name of the library into NODE_DEBUG to turn on debug mode:

NODE_DEBUG=themeparks npm run testonline

Environment variables can be combined:

NODE_DEBUG=themeparks PARKID=UniversalStudiosFlorida npm run testonline

Contributing

Each park inherits it's core logic from lib/park.js.

For each set of parks, a base object should be made with all the core logic for that API/park group.

Then, for each park, a basic shell object should be implemented that just configures the park's base object (and overrides anything in unusual setups).

Throughout the API, please make use of the this.Log() function so debugging parks when things break is easier.

Please raise issues and make pull requests with new features :)

See full contribution guide at Themeparks Contribution Guide.

A rough guide for adding new parks is also available at Adding New Parks to the ThemeParks API.
