@vidijs/vidijs-api v0.1.14

vidijs-api

Library to provide a set of functions to interact with the Vidispine REST API using the axios HTTP client.

Details

• The function will return a promise.

• Functions typically require an object containing path, query and matrix params. Check the implementation of the function for exact detail.

• Any body data will be converted into a JSON string if accepted.

• Matrix params should be a list as there may be reoccurring keys. Objects can be easily converted using Object.entries(matrixParams)

• Any JSON response will be automatically parsed as the data object.

• The axios default configuration can be set via api.utils.defaultClient - See the Axios documentation for more detail

• All remaining props will be spread to the axios client.

Example Usage

Setting the baseURL and auth for requests.

const api = require('@vidijs/vidijs-api')

api.utils.defaultClient.defaults.baseURL = 'http://localhost:8080'
api.utils.defaultClient.defaults.auth = { username: 'admin', password: 'admin' };

api.version.getVersion()
  .then(({ data: versionDocument }) => console.log({ versionDocument }));

async function getUser(userName) {
  try {
    const { data: userDocument } = await api.user.getUser({ userName });
    console.log({ userDocument });
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
  }
}

Using a token for authentication

const api = require('@vidijs/vidijs-api')
api.utils.defaultClient.defaults.baseURL = 'https://example.myvidispine.com'

const VIDISPINE_TOKEN = `yourtoken`
api.defaultClient.defaults.headers.Authorization = `token ${VIDISPINE_TOKEN}`;
