Storing info locally

LittleB

I am writing a module using Strava api, to show my last run, best times e.t.c. Got some some code working but was wondering how you can store data (for a module) in a local file.

Strava uses OAuth 2.0 and has tokens that time out so when your token times out you call a url (with old token) and it gives you a new one. When I get the new token I want to store this new token somewhere on the raspberry pi so I can use this new token when I next make a request.

I have made a few modules myself and all work nicely but could not find an example on how to store a value somewhere and be able to override it?

@LittleB use the node_helper.js

it can execute the code to generate the token and read/write
files.
look at the spotify, googlephotos… modules for examples
