#ifttt-these

This package is middleware for IFTTT, allowing custom triggers and actions. Ever wanted to use boolean logic for an action? This is the right place to look.

This package is under development, but should work as-is. If you have any suggestions on better terminologies/function names, please let me know!

# Installing ifttt-these
Run `npm install ifttt-these`

# Initialize ifttt-these

Username and password are required for receiving triggers from the ifttt server; a key from the Maker channel is required for sending an action to the server.

```javascript
    var IFTTT_These = require("ifttt-these");
    var ifttt = new IFTTT_These({
      username: "username",
      password: "password", 
      key:      "makerkey"
    });
```

# Create custom trigger middleware
Messages are received through the wordpress post action. There are two types of messages that we can receive. 
##Receiving
1. State changes - A state change will have the contents of the post as JSON, and the title "state". The internal state variable will be updated with the values from the JSON. Each top-level variable in the object will be triggered (see below).
2. receiving triggers - Set the title as "action", and the content as the name of your trigger

##Example

For this example, I want to to get a phone call if I am late for work. Most of the work is going to be on the IFTTT side of things:

1. I set a date/time event for every weekday at 6:45, to do a wordpress post. The content for the post will be "TimeToLeave".
2. I set up a few events which keep track of where I am; for this example, I have two location events. When I leave home, I send `{location:"unknown"}`, and when I get home, send `{location: "home"}`.
3. I have a final event, when I send the trigger "Call", I trigger a phone call which will speak the first argument.

This is all of the code I need for the middleware.

```javascript
    ifttt.ifThisThen(
      function() { return ifttt.wasTriggered("TimeToLeave") && ifttt.state.location !== "home"; },
      function() { 
        ifttt.trigger("Call", function(){return ["Wake up you're late for work."]}) 
    });
```
