ibm-watson-cognitive Getting started with ibm-watson-cognitive Using Watson Developer Cloud SDKs

Example

The quickest way to get started with Watson services is to use the Watson Developer Cloud SDKs. The following GitHub repositories contain installation instructions and basic usage examples:

• Android
• iOS
• Java
• Node.js
• Python
• Unity

For example, here's how to make an AlchemyLanguage API call with the Node.js SDK:

Install the SDK:

$ npm install watson-developer-cloud

Save the following code to a file (we'll call it app.js). Make sure you replace API_KEY with your API key.

// Instantiate the service 
var AlchemyLanguageV1= require('watson-developer-cloud/alchemy-language/v1');
var alchemy_language = AlchemyLanguageV1({
  api_key: 'API_KEY'
})

var parameters = {
  extract: [
    'entities',
    'keywords'
  ]
  url: 'https://www.ibm.com/us-en/'
};

alchemy_language.combined(parameters, function (err, response) {
  if (err)
    console.log('error:', err);
  else
    console.log(JSON.stringify(response, null, 2));
});

Run the app:

$ node app.js
