Testing events locally:

Prereqs

  1. Install twitch CLI and configure it for your app
  2. Install and configure ngrok to use used for twitch webhooks

Setup

TESjs looks for a port in several places. this.port = port || process.env.PORT || 8080;. port is optionally specified when initializing the listener field. Make sure you know which port to make available to ngrok.

Currently the app requires scopes:

channel:read:subscriptions
channel:read:predictions
moderator:read:followers

When setting up subscriptions, I believe that the broadcaster id provided needs to be authenticated with stream-jam, otherwise there will be an error. For easy testing, my id is "39726444".

Depending on the library, the id needs to be a string. TES wants a string, but twurple doesn't.

Testing events

  1. Run the dev server. $ yarn dev
  2. Run ngrok on the port of the TES port. $ ngrok http <port>.
  3. Send a test event with Twitch CLI: twitch event trigger subscribe -F <ephemeral ngrok url>/teswh/event -s <secret> -t 39726444c
  • -F: The web server address to send the mock events to.
  • -s: The secret that is set when initializing TES
  • -t: The user that is receiving the event. In this case its me

Notes

Ngrok gives you a new url each time you run it. You need to update the twitch event command and url for TES when initializing.

You need to match the -s <secret> option with what you have in your .env for TES_WEBHOOK_SECRET
