}

run();

Standalone function

The standalone function version of this method:

import { PlexAPICore } from "@lukehagar/plexjs/core.js";
import { updaterGetUpdateStatus } from "@lukehagar/plexjs/funcs/updaterGetUpdateStatus.js";

// Use `PlexAPICore` for best tree-shaking performance.
// You can create one instance of it to use across an application.
const plexAPI = new PlexAPICore({
  accessToken: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
});

async function run() {
  const res = await updaterGetUpdateStatus(plexAPI);

  if (!res.ok) {
    throw res.error;
  }

  const { value: result } = res;

  // Handle the result

});

async function run() {
  const result = await plexAPI.updater.applyUpdates(Tonight.One, Skip.One);

  // Handle the result
  console.log(result);
}

run();
