Getting Started#

This integration creates a workflow with a Twitch trigger and Delay action. When you configure and deploy the workflow, it will run on Pipedream's servers 24x7 for free.

Select this integration
Configure the New Streams By Streamer trigger
1. Connect your Twitch account
2. Configure timer
3. Configure Streamer Login Names
Configure the Delay Workflow action
1. Connect your Delay account
2. Configure Duration to delay (value)
3. Select a Duration to delay (unit)
Deploy the workflow
Send a test event to validate your setup
Turn on the trigger

Details#

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

New Streams By Streamer on Twitch

Description:Emit new event when a live stream starts from the streamers you specify.

Version:0.1.2

Twitch Overview#

The Twitch API unlocks a world of possibilities for engaging with live streaming communities and understanding audience behaviors. With Pipedream, you can harness this API to automate many aspects of Twitch interaction and analysis. From tracking stream stats to automating chat messages, the Twitch API lets you create workflows that interact with Twitch's vast live streaming ecosystem. Pipedream's serverless platform streamlines these tasks, making it simple to connect Twitch with other services for enhanced functionalities.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common-polling.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  name: "New Streams By Streamer",
  key: "twitch-streams-by-streamer",
  description: "Emit new event when a live stream starts from the streamers you specify.",
  version: "0.1.2",
  type: "source",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    streamerLoginNames: {
      propDefinition: [
        common.props.twitch,
        "streamerLoginNames",
      ],
    },
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getMeta(item) {
      const {
        id,
        started_at: startedAt,
        title: summary,
      } = item;
      const ts = Date.parse(startedAt);
      return {
        id,
        summary,
        ts,
      };
    },
  },
  async run() {
    // get and emit streams for the specified streamers
    const streams = await this.paginate(this.twitch.getStreams.bind(this), {
      user_login: this.streamerLoginNames,
    });
    for await (const stream of streams) {
      this.$emit(stream, this.getMeta(stream));
    }
  },
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Twitch	`twitch`	`app`	This component uses the Twitch app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Streamer Login Names	`streamerLoginNames`	`string[]`	Enter the login names of the streamers whose streams you want to watch.

Trigger Authentication#

Twitch uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Twitch account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Twitch and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Twitch API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

Action#

Delay Workflow on Delay

Description:Delay the execution of your workflow for a specific amount of time (does not count against your compute time).

Version:0.0.1

Delay Overview#

The Delay API in Pipedream is a built-in function that allows you to pause a workflow for a specified amount of time. This can be incredibly useful when you need to stagger API calls to avoid rate limits, wait for an external process to complete, or simply introduce a delay between actions in a sequence. With precision up to milliseconds, the Delay API provides a simple yet powerful tool for managing timing in automation workflows.

Action Code#

import delay from "../../delay.app.mjs";

export default {
  name: "Delay Workflow",
  version: "0.0.1",
  key: "delay-workflow-delay",
  type: "action",
  description: "Delay the execution of your workflow for a specific amount of time (does not count against your compute time).",
  props: {
    delay,
    delayDurationValue: {
      propDefinition: [
        delay,
        "delayDurationValue",
      ],
      label: "Duration to delay (value)",
      description: "Specify a value for how long you'd like to delay your workflow.",
    },
    delayDurationUnit: {
      propDefinition: [
        delay,
        "delayDurationUnit",
      ],
      label: "Duration to delay (unit)",
      description: "Specify the time unit for delaying the workflow.",
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const milliseconds = this.delay.convertToMilliseconds(
      this.delayDurationUnit,
      this.delayDurationValue,
    );
    const resp = await $.flow.delay(milliseconds);
    $.export(
      "$summary",
      `Successfully configured this workflow to delay for ${this.delayDurationValue} ${this.delayDurationUnit}.`,
    );
    return resp;
  },
};
