Works on any browser that supports:
- Native Promise objects.
- Websockets.
- JSON (any browser made after 1942).
Independant developers have reported success when using FarmBotJS in a Node environment, but we do not test against Node based setups. Issue reports related to NodeJS are highly appreciated.
npm install farmbot
<script src="./dist/farmbot_single_file.js"></script>
<script>
var farmbot123 = new = new fbjs.Farmbot({ token: "foo.bar.baz" });
<script>
Please raise an issue if you require support with other package managers such as Bower.
Login using your API token from the Farmbot Web App.

Example:
import { Farmbot } from "farmbot";
var SUPER_SECRET_TOKEN = "eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ0ZXN0MTIzQHRlc3QuY29tIiwiaWF0IjoxNDU5MTA5NzI4LCJqdGkiOiI5MjJhNWEwZC0wYjNhLTQ3NjctOTMxOC0xZTQxYWU2MDAzNTIiLCJpc3MiOiJodHRwOi8vbG9jYWxob3N0OjMwMDAvIiwiZXhwIjoxNDU5NDU1MzI4LCJtcXR0IjoibG9jYWxob3N0IiwiYm90IjoiYWE3YmIzN2YtNWJhMy00NjU0LWIyZTQtNThlZDU3NDY1MDhjIn0.KpkNGR9YH68AF3iHP48GormqXzspBJrDGm23aMFGyL_eRIN8iKzy4gw733SaJgFjmebJOqZkz3cly9P5ZpCKwlaxAyn9RvfjQgFcUK0mywWAAvKp5lHfOFLhBBGICTW1r4HcZBgY1zTzVBw4BqS4zM7Y0BAAsflYRdl4dDRG_236p9ETCj0MSYxFagfLLLq0W63943jSJtNwv_nzfqi3TTi0xASB14k5vYMzUDXrC-Z2iBdgmwAYUZUVTi2HsfzkIkRcTZGE7l-rF6lvYKIiKpYx23x_d7xGjnQb8hqbDmLDRXZJnSBY3zGY7oEURxncGBMUp4F_Yaf3ftg4Ry7CiA";
let bot = new Farmbot({ token: SUPER_SECRET_TOKEN });
bot
.connect()
.then(function () {
return bot.moveRelative({ x: 1, y: 2, z: 3, speed: 100 });
});
bot
.connect()
.then(function(bot){
console.log("Bot online!");
return bot.emergencyStop(); // You can chain commands.
})
.then(function(bot){
console.log("Bot has stopped!");
})
.catch(function(error) {
console.log("Something went wrong :(");
});
Call RPC commands using the corresponding method on bot
. All RPC commands return a promise.
Example:
bot
.home({ axis: "x", speed: 800 })
.then(function (ack) {
console.log("X Axis is now at 0.");
})
.catch(function (err) {
console.log("Failed to bring X axis home.");
})
Currently supported commands:
See the annotated type definitions for available methods and properties
var bot = Farmbot({ token: '---'});
bot.on("eventName", function(data, eventName) {
console.log("I just got an" + eventName + " event!");
console.log("This is the payload: " + data);
})
// "I just got an eventName event!"
// "This is the payload: any javascript object or primitive"
bot.emit("eventName", "any javascript object or primitive");
var eventHandlers = bot.event("eventName");
// [function(){...}]
"logs"
: The bot will send logs to this channel, usually fromSTDOUT
on the device."malformed"
: When the bot gets a bad RPC command, it will notify you via this channel."offline"
: Connection lost. Note: FarmbotJS will try to auto-reconnect."online"
: Client is connected and subscribed to bot."sent"
: Triggered when the application begins sending a message."status"
: Most important. When the REMOTE device state changes (eg: "x" goes from 0 to 100), the bot will emit this event."sync"
: A resource on the API has changed.<random uuid>
: RPC commands have UUIDs when they leave the browser. When the bot responds to that message, FarmbotJS will emit an event named after the request's UUID. Mostly for internal use.*
: Catch all events (for debugging).
