The Kong Admin API Node library provides convenient access to the Kong Admin API from applications written in server-side JavaScript.

Installation

npm install @tropos/kong-admin-api-client --save

Usage

The package needs to be configured with your Admin API's URL.

const Kong = require('@tropos/kong-admin-api-client');

const adminAPIURL = 'http://localhost:8001';
// Create a new client with the default exported constructor
const kong = new Kong({ adminAPIURL });

The kong object has properties that correspond to all the Kong Admin API resources. The currently supported resources are:

• Services

All of the resources have standard methods you can use to access the API:

// use the resource properties to interface with the API

kong.services.get();
