ng-giphy

An angular module that leverages the giphy API to use it on angular applications

Usage:

1. Install ng-giphy from bower, npm or import script manually

   $ bower install ng-giphy --save
   $ npm install ng-giphy --save
   

2. Include the supplied JS file. Skip if you use Commonjs modules

   <!-- Bower -->
   <script type='text/javascript' src='bower_components/ng-giphy/dist/ng-giphy.min.js'></script>
   <!-- npm -->
   <script type='text/javascript' src='node_modules/ng-giphy/dist/ng-giphy.min.js'></script>

3. Add ng-giphy dependency to your app

   angular.module('myApp', ['ng-giphy'])

   If you use Commonjs modules:

   var ngGiphy = require('ng-giphy');
   angular.module('myApp', [ngGiphy])

Configuration

The Giphy API is open to the public. They have instituted a public beta key system to let anyone try it out. The API key is required for all endpoints. In this module, for test purposes we use the public beta key: "dc6zaTOxFJmzC”. Please use this key while you develop your application and experiment with your integrations. To request a production key or get more information please visit this link.

If you are using a production key use the ng-giphy config provider to set it up:

angular.module('myApp', ['ng-giphy'])
  .config(runConfig);

runConfig.$inject = ['giphyConfigProvider'];
function runConfig(giphyConfigProvider) {
  // set your private key here
  giphyConfigProvider.setKey('dc6zaTOxFJmzC');
}

Service

1. Add giphy dependency injection into your controller, service etc.

   MyController.$inject = ['giphy'];
   function MyController(giphy){
     // use giphy service
   }
