🖼️ Nekosia.js API — Random Anime Images

Nekosia.js is a Node.js module that provides easy access to the Nekosia API, a rich source of anime-themed images. The API offers a wide range of categories, allowing you to quickly and flexibly search for images based on your preferences and needs. You have full control over the images you retrieve, which sets our API apart from others.

But that's not all! The API also supports sessions (based on user ID or IP address), helping to prevent repeated images.

🔍 Key Features of the API

• Wide range of categories: Nekosia API offers virtually every kind of anime graphic, not just neko images.
• High image quality: All images are carefully selected and checked for both quality and appropriateness.
• Sessions: The API supports sessions (based on ID or IP address), helping to avoid duplicate images.
• Dominant colors: The API returns a palette of dominant colors for each image.
• Image compression: JSON responses include a link to a compressed image with a significantly reduced file size compared to the original. This ensures faster load times on client devices without sacrificing quality.
• Security: Nekosia API guarantees that all content is free from NSFW material, making it one of the most trusted sources for anime-themed images.

...and that’s not all!

🤔 How to Use?

Simple Example

const { NekosiaAPI } = require('nekosia.js');

(async () => {
	const response = await NekosiaAPI.fetchImages('catgirl');
	console.log(response); // Sample response: https://nekosia.cat/documentation?page=api-endpoints#example-response
})();

IP-based Sessions

In this example, we used an IP-based session. What does this mean? Thanks to this solution, a user with a specific IP address will not encounter duplicate images when selecting them randomly.

const { NekosiaAPI } = require('nekosia.js');

(async () => {
	const response = await NekosiaAPI.fetchImages('catgirl', {
		session: 'ip',
		count: 1,
		additionalTags: [],
		blacklistedTags: []
	});

	console.log(response);
})();

ID-based Sessions

You can also use id, but this requires providing a user identifier (e.g., from Discord). Pass this information in id as a string.

const { NekosiaAPI } = require('nekosia.js');

(async () => {
	const response = await NekosiaAPI.fetchImages('catgirl', {
		session: 'id',
		id: '561621386765971781',
		count: 1,
		additionalTags: [],
		blacklistedTags: []
	});

	console.log(response);
})();
