@appsensorlike/appsensorlike_exec_mode_rest_client_node v0.20.6

@appsensorlike/appsensorlike http/s client consuming the web service as defined in https://owasp.org/www-pdf-archive/Owasp-appsensor-guide-v2.pdf under Chapter 20. Please note that this code runs on node only.

Installation

npm i @appsensorlike/appsensorlike_exec_mode_rest_client_node

Usage

Please mind, that for this example your module has to install also @appsensorlike/appsensorlike_exec_mode_rest_server.

Please consider how the client is authenticated and authorized in @appsensorlike/appsensorlike_exec_mode_rest_server.

import { AppSensorRestClient } from '@appsensorlike/appsensorlike_exec_mode_rest_client_node';
import { AppSensorRestServer } from '@appsensorlike/appsensorlike_exec_mode_rest_server';
import { AppSensorEvent, Category, DetectionPoint, DetectionSystem, User } from "@appsensorlike/appsensorlike/core/core.js";

const appSensorRestServer = 
        new AppSensorRestServer('appsensor-server-config.json',
                                'appsensor-rest-request-handler-config.json');
await appSensorRestServer.initStartServer();

const appSensorRestClient = 
        new AppSensorRestClient('',
                                'appsensor-rest-request-event-config.json');
//you are now able to get instance of AppSensorClient respectivly EventManager and to send events to the server
const eventManager = appSensorRestClient.getAppSensorClient().getEventManager();

//following lines are added just for purpose of demonstration
//
const user1 = new User("user1");
const detectionPoint = new DetectionPoint(Category.REQUEST, "RE7");
const detectionSystem = new DetectionSystem("localhostme");

if (eventManager) {
    await eventManager.addEvent(new AppSensorEvent(user1, detectionPoint, detectionSystem)); 
    await eventManager.addEvent(new AppSensorEvent(user1, detectionPoint, detectionSystem)); //new instance every time to set timestamp
}

Here it is an example when your client runs along with your app on a separate node instance. Before running the code you have to have running server, which will accept your requests.

Please consider how the client is authenticated and authorized in @appsensorlike/appsensorlike_exec_mode_rest_server.

import { AppSensorRestClient } from '@appsensorlike/appsensorlike_exec_mode_rest_client_node';
import { AppSensorEvent, Category, DetectionPoint, DetectionSystem, User } from "@appsensorlike/appsensorlike/core/core.js";

const appSensorRestClient = 
        new AppSensorRestClient('',
                                'appsensor-rest-request-event-config.json');
//you are now able to get instance of AppSensorClient respectivly EventManager and to send events to the server
const eventManager = appSensorRestClient.getAppSensorClient().getEventManager();

//following lines are added just for purpose of demonstration
//
const user1 = new User("user1");
const detectionPoint = new DetectionPoint(Category.REQUEST, "RE7");
const detectionSystem = new DetectionSystem("localhostme");

if (eventManager) {
    await eventManager.addEvent(new AppSensorEvent(user1, detectionPoint, detectionSystem)); 
    await eventManager.addEvent(new AppSensorEvent(user1, detectionPoint, detectionSystem)); //new instance every time to set timestamp
}

Configuration

You can pass the url to send request to in the AppSensorRestClient constructor or configure it in appsensor-rest-request-event-config.json file in the working directory. You can copy the default configuration from this module's dist/execution-modes/appsensor-rest/client-node/event. Corresponding schema file appsensor-rest-client-config_schema.json is in the same directory. The default url is http://localhost:8080 .

TypeScript support

You need TypeScript version >= 4.7 in order the paths exported by the module to be resolved.
