Introduction to Asgard - Social Media Alerts & Feeds JavaScript Builder

As a web developer, creating a seamless social media experience for your users can be a challenging task. Managing multiple social media platforms, handling updates, and displaying feeds in real-time can be overwhelming. That's where Asgard - Social Media Alerts & Feeds JavaScript Builder comes in. Asgard is a powerful JavaScript library that helps you build custom social media alerts and feeds for your website or application.

In this tutorial, we'll take you through a step-by-step guide on how to use Asgard to create custom social media alerts and feeds for Facebook, Instagram, Twitch, and more. By the end of this tutorial, you'll be able to create a fully functional social media alert system for your website.

Getting Started with Asgard

Before we dive into the tutorial, make sure you have the following:

• A basic understanding of JavaScript and HTML/CSS
• A web development environment set up on your local machine (e.g., Visual Studio Code, Sublime Text, etc.)
• A web server or a way to host your HTML files (e.g., localhost, GitHub Pages, etc.)

Once you have these requirements met, let's get started!

Step 1: Setting Up Asgard

To use Asgard, you need to include the JavaScript library in your HTML file. You can do this by adding the following script tag to your HTML file:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/asgard-js@latest/dist/asgard.min.js"></script>

Replace the URL with the latest version of Asgard available on the official website.

Step 2: Creating a Social Media Feed

To create a social media feed, you need to define the social media platform and the type of feed you want to display. For example, if you want to display a Facebook feed, you would use the following code:

const asgard = new Asgard({
  platform: 'facebook',
  type: 'feed',
  options: {
    accessToken: 'YOUR_FACEBOOK_ACCESS_TOKEN',
    clientId: 'YOUR_FACEBOOK_CLIENT_ID',
    clientSecret: 'YOUR_FACEBOOK_CLIENT_SECRET',
  },
});

Replace YOUR_FACEBOOK_ACCESS_TOKEN, YOUR_FACEBOOK_CLIENT_ID, and YOUR_FACEBOOK_CLIENT_SECRET with your actual Facebook app credentials.

Step 3: Customizing the Feed

You can customize the feed by adding filters, sorting options, and more. For example, to filter the feed to only show posts from a specific page, you would use the following code:

asgard.filter({ pageId: 'YOUR_FACEBOOK_PAGE_ID' });

Replace YOUR_FACEBOOK_PAGE_ID with the actual page ID of the page you want to filter the feed to.

Step 4: Displaying the Feed

To display the feed, you need to render the HTML element that will contain the feed. For example, you can add the following HTML element to your HTML file:

<div id="facebook-feed"></div>

Then, use the following code to render the feed:

asgard.render('facebook-feed');

This will render the Facebook feed in the #facebook-feed element.

Step 5: Handling Updates

To handle updates, you need to listen for the update event on the Asgard instance. For example, you can use the following code:

asgard.on('update', (data) => {
  console.log(data);
});

This will log any updates to the console.

Step 6: Handling Errors

To handle errors, you need to listen for the error event on the Asgard instance. For example, you can use the following code:

asgard.on('error', (error) => {
  console.error(error);
});

This will log any errors to the console.

Conclusion

That's it! With these steps, you should now have a fully functional social media alert system using Asgard. You can customize the feed to suit your needs, add filters, and handle updates and errors.
