Overview of Rocket Chat#

Rocket Chat is a customizable and open-source team chat platform that's a popular alternative for team communication. With its API, you can automate a variety of tasks, such as sending messages, creating channels, managing users, and integrating with various services for a seamless workflow. Leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can use Rocket Chat API to create intricate workflows and connect them with other apps to streamline communication, trigger actions based on messages, and synchronize data across platforms.

Connect Rocket Chat#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    rocket_chat: {
      type: "app",
      app: "rocket_chat",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://${this.rocket_chat.$auth.domain}/api/v1/me`,
      headers: {
        "X-Auth-Token": `${this.rocket_chat.$auth["X-Auth-Token"]}`,
        "X-User-Id": `${this.rocket_chat.$auth["X-User-Id"]}`,
      },
      params: {
        userId: `${this.rocket_chat.$auth["X-User-Id"]}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

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:

// 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
  },
})
