Documentation

Installation and Usage

The minimum required Node.js version is v7.6.0 for native async/await support (there's only a mere line in the codebase, though).

npm

npm i --save @transentis/bptk-connector

yarn

yarn add @transentis/bptk-connector

Quick Setup with Default Config

TODO SINCE NO

Note: Any config passed in is deeply merged with the default config.

Environment Variables

const bptkApi = new bptkAPi(process.env.API_KEY)

Although it is possible to manually pass in the API key, it is preferable to store the key in a secret file (which should not be committed).

This allows bptk-connector to be constructed like in the above code.

# filename: .env
API_KEY=RGAPI-my-api-key

Callbacks

TODO

Promises

bptkApi
	.requestModel(myModel)
	.then((data) => doSomething(data))
	.then(console.log)
	.catch((error) => console.error(error))

Async / Await

const main = async () => {
	const requestedModel = await bptkApi.requestModel(myModel)
}

Request Errors

Errors as of v1.0.0 return the following error object:

{
    statusCode: 42, // some random number
    url: '', // the debug URL that is used in logging as well
    error: {} // the rest of the error object
}
