Overview of Akismet#

The Akismet API is a powerful ally in the fight against spam. This API allows you to check comments and contact form submissions against Akismet's database of known spam. It can also provide valuable insights into the nature of the content being analyzed, helping you determine whether it's a legitimate message or an unwanted interruption. By integrating Akismet with Pipedream, you can streamline the spam filtering process across various platforms, ensure the integrity of user-generated content, and maintain a cleaner digital environment.

Connect Akismet#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    akismet: {
      type: "app",
      app: "akismet",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://rest.akismet.com/1.2/usage-limit`,
      headers: {
        "accept": `application/json`,
      },
      params: {
        api_key: `${this.akismet.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Node#

Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.

This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json file or running npm install.

Below is an example of installing the axios package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:

Connect Node#

// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    // Return data to use it in future steps
    return steps.trigger.event
  },
})
