FSI Server API Client JS

API client for NeptuneLabs FSI Server

About

FSI Server API Client JS offers developers a flexible interface to control the REST OpenAPI of FSI server.

Uploading, deleting, modifying, creating and managing files and directory structures, as well as complex tasks can be easily accomplished using this high level API client. The FSI Server web interface uses this API client to communicate with FSI Server. You can see the API in action on this demo FSI Server.

How to install

Install with npm:

npm install @neptunelabs/fsi-server-api-client

Install with yarn:

yarn add @neptunelabs/fsi-server-api-client

Concepts

Promise based API versus queue API

There are two ways of using the API:

a promise based API
a queue API

Queueing command results in a far more readable code while using the promise-based API gives you more flexibility, but a deeply nested code.

Let's have a look at an example which just logs in and out of FSI Server:

Example: Promise based API

const fsiServerApiClient = require("@neptunelabs/fsi-server-api-client");
const client = new fsiServerApiClient.FSIServerClient('https://my.fsi-server.tld');

client.login("user", "password")
  .then(() => {
    client.logout()
      .catch(console.error);
  })
  .catch(console.error);

Example: Queue API

const fsiServerApiClient = require("@neptunelabs/fsi-server-api-client");
const client = new fsiServerApiClient.FSIServerClient('https://my.fsi-server.tld');

const queue = client.createQueue({continueOnError: false});
queue.login("user", "password");
queue.logout();

// the following line actually starts the execution
queue.runWithResult();

Besides the code style, the queue API simplifies working with many files, because you can run commands against all files selected by the queue.

Getting started

Basic Examples

Renaming all files in a folder

const queue = client.createQueue({continueOnError: false});
queue.login("user", "password");

// recursively read all files and folder entries in images/foo
queue.listServer("images/foo", {recursive: true});
// recursively read all files and folder entries in images/bar
queue.listServer("images/bar", {recursive: true});

//rename each collected file
queue.batchRename((entry) => {
  return (entry.type === "file") ? "renamed_" + entry.src : entry.src;
});

queue.logout();
queue.runWithResult();

Downloading assets

const queue = client.createQueue({continueOnError: false});
queue.login("user", "password");

queue.listServer("/path/to/images", {recursive: true});

queue.batchDownload("/target/path/", {
  flattenTargetPath: false,
  overwriteExisting: true
});

queue.logout();
queue.runWithResult();

Uploading assets

const queue = client.createQueue({continueOnError: false});
queue.login("user", "password");

queue.listLocal("/local_path/to/images", {
  fnFileFilter: FSIServerClient.FN_FILE_FILTER_VALID_IMAGES,
  recursive: true
});

queue.batchUpload("/images/", {
  flattenTargetPath: false,
  overwriteExisting: true
});

queue.logout();
queue.runWithResult();
