How to make a CURL call to Dropbox API using Meteor.js

Question

I am new to Meteor.js and want to make my web app work with Dropbox Core API. I am not able to wrap my head around making API calls using the HTTP package in Meteor.js

Answer 1

You can use the HTTP package you mentioned

Add it with

meteor add http

var result = HTTP.get("https://api.dropbox.com/1/account/info", {
             headers: {
                 Authorization: "Bearer "
             }
});

console.log(result.content)
console.log(result.data) //<< JSON form (if api reports application/json as the content-type header
