Sometimes there is a high demand for products that are unavailable in the IKEA online store and even in the locations. So here’s a script which makes it easy to check the availability of a list of products and locations.

IMPORTANT NOTE

BREAKING IOWS2 API for several Countries

This package uses the undocumented iows2 api by IKEA which doesn’t work for several countries anymore: be, cn, fi, fr, gb, hk, ie, jp, kr, my, pl, ru, sg, th, tw, us

If you want to get availabilities for those countries please consider testing the alpha channel of this package by installing the "2.0.0-alpha.1" version:

npm install -g [email protected]

or run it directly

npx [email protected] stock --country pl 80382321

Please report any bugs related to this alpha in the issues: https://github.com/Ephigenia/ikea-availability-checker/issues

Features

API

The API interface which helps you including the check into your library is kind of new. If you have suggestions for improvements feel free to open an issue.

const checker = require('ikea-availability-checker');

(async function() {
    const result = await checker.availability('394', '00501436');
    console.log('RESULT', result);
})();

Checkout more examples in the examples directory.

Development

Requirements

nodejs for version info check .nvmrc. it is strongly recommended to use either nvm and the exact same node version or the docker container as development environment

Debug

Node provides a simple way to debug all HTTP-related requests and responses using NODE_DEBUG:

NODE_DEBUG=http npm run start

Testing

The project has a preconfigured test runner mocha. Test coverage is not good.

Running all tests will also create coverage reports shown after the test results.

npm run test

TDD

npm run tdd

Run Specific tests

run test -- --grep="stock reporter"

Release

Releases are automated and created by CI managed by semantic-release.
