Learn how to fetch Links data using Airstack Hubs API.

Get Link By FID and Target FID

You can get a link by its FID and target FID by using Airstack Hubs API with the code below:

import {
  Metadata,
  getSSLHubRpcClient,
} from "@farcaster/hub-nodejs";

const client = getSSLHubRpcClient("hubs-grpc.airstack.xyz");

client.$.waitForReady(Date.now() + 5000, async (e) => {
  if (e) {
    console.error(`Failed to connect to the gRPC server:`, e);
    process.exit(1);
  } else {
    console.log(`Connected to the gRPC server`);
    const metadata = new Metadata();
    // Provide API key here
    metadata.add("x-airstack-hubs", process.env.AIRSTACK_API_KEY as string);

    // Fetch link data with `getLink`
    const linkResult = await client.getLink(
      {
        targetFid: 2,
        fid: 6833,
        linkType: "follow",
      },
      metadata
    );
    console.log(linkResult.value);
    // After everything, close the RPC connection
    client.close();
  }
});

import axios from "axios";
import { config } from "dotenv";

config();

const main = async () => {
  const server = "https://hubs.airstack.xyz";
  try {
    const response = await axios.get(`${server}/v1/linkById?fid=6833&target_fid=2&link_type=follow`, {
      headers: {
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
        // Provide API key here
        "x-airstack-hubs": process.env.AIRSTACK_API_KEY as string,
      },
    });
  
    console.log(response);
  
    console.log(json);
  } catch (e) {
    console.error(e);
  }
}

main();

}

Get Links By FID

You can get all links from a source FID by using Airstack Hubs API with the code below:

import {
  Metadata,
  getSSLHubRpcClient,
} from "@farcaster/hub-nodejs";

const client = getSSLHubRpcClient("hubs-grpc.airstack.xyz");

client.$.waitForReady(Date.now() + 5000, async (e) => {
  if (e) {
    console.error(`Failed to connect to the gRPC server:`, e);
    process.exit(1);
  } else {
    console.log(`Connected to the gRPC server`);
    const metadata = new Metadata();
    // Provide API key here
    metadata.add("x-airstack-hubs", process.env.AIRSTACK_API_KEY as string);

    // Fetch link data with `getLinksByFid`
    const linkResult = await client.getLinksByFid(
      {
        fid: 6833,
      },
      metadata
    );
    console.log(linkResult.value);
    // After everything, close the RPC connection
    client.close();
  }
});

import axios from "axios";
import { config } from "dotenv";

config();

const main = async () => {
  const server = "https://hubs.airstack.xyz";
  try {
    const response = await axios.get(`${server}/v1/linksByFid?fid=6833`, {
      headers: {
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
        // Provide API key here
        "x-airstack-hubs": process.env.AIRSTACK_API_KEY as string,
      },
    });
  
    console.log(response);
  
    console.log(json);
  } catch (e) {
    console.error(e);
  }
}

main();

Get Links By Target FID

You can get all links to a target FID by using Airstack Hubs API with the code below:

import {
  Metadata,
  getSSLHubRpcClient,
} from "@farcaster/hub-nodejs";

const client = getSSLHubRpcClient("hubs-grpc.airstack.xyz");

client.$.waitForReady(Date.now() + 5000, async (e) => {
  if (e) {
    console.error(`Failed to connect to the gRPC server:`, e);
    process.exit(1);
  } else {
    console.log(`Connected to the gRPC server`);
    const metadata = new Metadata();
    // Provide API key here
    metadata.add("x-airstack-hubs", process.env.AIRSTACK_API_KEY as string);

    // Fetch link data with `getLinksByTarget`
    const linkResult = await client.getLinksByTarget(
      {
        targetFid: 6833,
      },
      metadata
    );
    console.log(linkResult.value);
    console.log(reactionsResult.value);
    // After everything, close the RPC connection
    client.close();
  }
});

import axios from "axios";
import { config } from "dotenv";

config();

const main = async () => {
  const server = "https://hubs.airstack.xyz";
  try {
    const response = await axios.get(`${server}/v1/linksByTargetFid?target_fid=6833`, {
      headers: {
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
        // Provide API key here
        "x-airstack-hubs": process.env.AIRSTACK_API_KEY as string,
      },
    });
  
    console.log(response);
  
    console.log(json);
  } catch (e) {
    console.error(e);
  }
}

main();

{
  "messages": [
    {

        "type": "MESSAGE_TYPE_LINK_ADD",
        "fid": 302,
