javascript - nodejs imgur api - over capacity 500 error -

i keep getting error when trying use imgur search api in nodejs:

{"data":{"error":"imgur temporarily on capacity. please try again later."},"success":false,"status":500} 

i dont error when accessing api through rest client makes me think i'm doing wrong. when use rest client results expect. how i'm accessing api in node.

var https = require("https");  var options = {   protocol:"https:",   host:"api.imgur.com",   path:"3/gallery/search/top/all/0?q=cats",   headers:{"authorization" : "client-id ***********"} }  var req = https.request(options, function(response) {   var str = '';   response.on('data', function (chunk) {     str += chunk;   });   response.on('end', function () {     console.log(str);   }); });  req.end();   

your path in request options incorrect. prepend / , voila!

simply change:

path:"3/gallery/search/top/all/0?q=cats", 

to

path:"/3/gallery/search/top/all/0?q=cats", 

the following worked me!

var https = require("https");  var options = {   protocol:"https:",   host:"api.imgur.com",   path:"/3/gallery/search/top/all/0?q=cats",   headers:{"authorization" : "client-id {your_id}"} }  var req = https.request(options, function(response) {   var str = '';   response.on('data', function (chunk) {     str += chunk;   });   response.on('end', function () {     console.log(json.parse(str));   }); });  req.end();
