Counter-Strike Global Offensive for Node.js


This module provides a very flexible interface for interacting with the CS2
Game Coordinator. It's designed to work with a
node-steam-user SteamUser instance.

This is based off of node-tf2.

You will need steam-user v4.2.0 or later and Node.js v14 or later to use globaloffensive v3.
You will need steam-user v4.2.0 or later and Node.js v8 or later to use globaloffensive v2.

Setup

First, install it from npm:

$ npm install globaloffensive-pb-only

Require the module and call its constructor with your SteamUser instance:

``js
const SteamUser = require('steam-user');
const GlobalOffensive = require('globaloffensive');

let user = new SteamUser();
let csgo = new GlobalOffensive(user);
`

To initialize your GC connection, just launch CS:GO via SteamUser normally:

`js
client.gamesPlayed([730]);
`

node-globaloffensive will emit a connectedToGC event when the game coordinator connection has been successfully
established. You shouldn't try to do anything before you receive that event.

Enums

There are some enums that are used by various methods and events. You can find them in enums.js.

Properties

There are a few useful read-only properties available to you.

$3

true if we're currently connected to the GC, false otherwise. You should only call methods when we have an active GC session.

$3

A big object containing account data and some statistics including players in-game. Undefined until accountData is emitted.

$3

An array containing the items in your inventory. Undefined until connectedToGC is emitted.

As of v2.2.0, some special properties are populated on items in this array (and also item objects in itemAcquired and
related events), where applicable:

- position - This item's position in your inventory. If the item is new and unacknowledged, this is 0
- custom_name - This item's custom name, applied via name tag
- paint_index - The item's paint index
- paint_seed - The item's paint seed
- paint_wear - The item's paint wear, as a float (often ignorantly referred to as "float value")
- kill_eater_value - Tracked stat value for StatTrak weapons
- kill_eater_score_type - What type of stat is tracked for StatTrak weapons. Currently only 0 (Kills) is available.
- quest_id
- tradable_after - A Date object representing when this item will become tradable. May be a date in the past, as this is not removed when the date is reached.
- stickers - An array of objects:
- slot - The sticker slot number, 0-5
- sticker_id
- wear - The sticker's wear (how scratched it is), as a float. null if not scratched at all.
- scale - Float, null if not applicable
- rotation - Float, null if not applicable
- tint_id
- offset_x - Float, null if not applicable
- offset_y - Float, null if not applicable
- casket_id - If this item is contained in a casket (storage unit), this is a string containing that casket's item ID
- casket_contained_item_count - If this item is a casket (storage unit), this is a count of how many items it contains

Note that if any of the above attributes are not applicable, then they will not exist in the item object.

It appears that under some circumstances, the GC might load items from storage units into your inventory without
calling getCasketContents, so if you are using this property to see what items
are in your inventory, you will need to check casket_id to filter out items stored in storage units.

Methods

$3

When instantiating your node-globaloffensive instance, you need to pass your active Steam.SteamClient instance as the sole parameter, as shown here:

`js
var csgo = new GlobalOffensive(steamClient);
`

$3


- shareCodeOrDetails - Either a share code as a string, or an object containing properties matchId, outcomeId, token

v2.2.0 or later is required to use this method

Requests stats for a historical game. Listen for the matchList event to get your response.

$3

Request a list of current live tournament games.
This is the list you see in the client under Watch -> Live.
Listen for the matchList event to get your response.

$3

Request a list of recent games (max. 8). This is the list you see in the client under Watch -> Your Matches.
Listen for the matchList event to get your response.

$3

Request live game info for a specific user. Listen for the matchList event to get your response.

$3

v1.1.0 or later is required to use this method

Sends the same request to the GC that the official client sends when you inspect an item. If all parameters are correct
and the GC is in a good mood, returns the item's data. Using this for an item your account owns is useless as all
the data is already available in inventory.

The response will arrive in the callback and in the inspectItemInfo event.

As of v2.1.0, the request will time out if no response is received in 10 seconds. If this happens,
inspectItemTimedOut will be emitted.

v1.2.0 or later is required to use this method

Sends the same request to the GC that viewing the CSGO player profile from the in-game friendlist sends. Returns the same information that you would get in-game.
This returns the same protobuf that is used when you request your own profile data, so most of it stays empty.

$3

- nameTagId - The ID of the name tag you want to consume to do this
- itemId - The ID of the item you want to rename
- name - A string containing the item's new name

v2.1.0 or later is required to use this method

Renames a particular item in your inventory, using a given name tag. You can rename storage units for free by passing
0 as the nameTagId.

$3


- items - An array of item IDs to craft
- recipe - An integer indicating which crafting recipe to use

v2.3.0 or later is required to use this method

Craft items together into a new item using a specific recipe. items should be an array of item IDs to craft.
You will receive a craftingComplete event in response. If crafting succeeded, you will also get
itemRemoved events for each item you spent, and itemAcquired events for each item
you received.

Recipes are defined in items_game.txt. Available recipes as of late 2022 are:

- 0 = Trade-Up: 10x Consumer Grade → 1x Industrial Grade
- 1 = Trade-Up: 10x Industrial Grade → 1x Mil-Spec Grade
- 2 = Trade-Up: 10x Mil-Spec Grade → 1x Restricted

- 4 = Trade-Up: 10x Classified → 1x Covert
- 10 = Trade-Up: 10x StatTrak Consumer Grade → 1x StatTrak Industrial Grade
- 11 = Trade-Up: 10x StatTrak Industrial Grade → 1x StatTrak Mil-Spec Grade
- 12 = Trade-Up: 10x StatTrak Mil-Spec Grade → 1x StatTrak Restricted
- 13 = Trade-Up: 10x StatTrak Restricted → 1x StatTrak Classified
- 14 = Trade-Up: 10x StatTrak Classified → 1x StatTrak Covert

$3


- itemId - The ID of the item you want to delete

1.3.0 or later is required to use this method

Deletes a particular item from your inventory. This is a destructive operation, which cannot be undone.

$3

- casketId - The ID of the casket (storage unit) you want to put an item into
- itemId - The ID of the item you want to put into the casket

v2.1.0 or later is required to use this method

Put an item in your inventory into a casket (storage unit) you own. Assuming the request succeeds,
itemRemoved will be emitted for the item that was put into the casket, and
itemCustomizationNotification will be emitted with notification type
CasketAdded for the casket.

$3


- casketId - The ID of the casket (storage unit) you want to remove an item from
- itemId - The ID of the item you want to remove from the casket

v2.1.0 or later is required to use this method

Remove an item from a casket (storage unit) you own and put it into your inventory. Assuming the request succeeds,
itemAcquired will be emitted for the item that was removed from the casket, and
itemCustomizationNotification will be emitted with notification type
CasketRemoved for the casket.

$3


- casketId - The ID of the casket (storage unit) you want to get the contents of
- callback - A function to be called once the contents are loaded
- err - An Error object on failure, or null on success
- items - An array of item objects, the same structure as objects in inventory

v2.1.0 or later is required to use this method

Loads the contents of a storage unit. Note that calling this will have the GC load the contents of the storage unit
using the same mechanism as your actual inventory, so items in the storage unit will appear in the inventory
property, and itemAcquired will be emitted for each item. Each item in your inventory that is contained
inside of a storage unit has a property casket_id, the value of which is a string containing the ID of the storage unit
that contains that item.

It appears that under some circumstances, the GC might load these items into your inventory without calling this method,
so if you are using inventory to see what items are in your inventory, you will need to check casket_id
to filter out items stored in storage units.



Events

$3

let csgo = new GlobalOffensive(steamUser);

csgo.on('disconnectedFromGC', (reason) => {
if (reason == GlobalOffensive.GCConnectionStatus.GC_GOING_DOWN) {
console.log('GC going down');
