Botinder

Botinder is a Tinder client for Google Chrome. Tinder is mobile-only but it's way more convenient to write and browse profiles (with big photos) on your computer, so I made this Chrome extension.

Botinder imitates the official Tinder application

Botinder had a rapid growth and I try to regularly deliver new features and improvements. I hope Tinder won't take this too badly.

Download

Get Botinder on the chrome web store https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/botinder/olfdgabkdgehljipnjaclfhpcmddcjml

Client

Front-end stack:

Ember.js
jQuery
Handlebars.js
normalize.css

JS

The client is built in JavaScript with Ember http://emberjs.com (which is a little harder to learn than Angular but helps keep the code clean and organized).

request on Tinder api,

function request(path, method, data, options) {
  return $.ajax({
    url: 'https://api.gotinder.com/' + path,
    type: method,
    data: data,
    beforeSend: function(request) {
      if (path !== 'auth') {
        request.setRequestHeader('X-Auth-Token', token);
        request.setRequestHeader('os-version', 19);
        request.setRequestHeader('app-version', 759);
        request.setRequestHeader('platform', 'android');
      }
    }
  }).fail(function(error) {
    if (error.status == 401) {
      Botinder.openWelcomeTab(options ? options.tabId : null);
    }
  });
}

chrome.webRequest.onBeforeSendHeaders.addListener(function(details) {
  for (var i = 0; i < details.requestHeaders.length; ++i) {
    if (details.requestHeaders[i].name === 'User-Agent') {
      details.requestHeaders[i].value = 'Tinder Android Version 3.2.1';
    }
  }
  return {requestHeaders: details.requestHeaders};
}, {urls: ["*://api.gotinder.com/*"]}, ["blocking", "requestHeaders"]);
