Documentation

Balena-Register-Device exports a factory function, which must be called with a dependencies object, containing a configured balena-request instance.

Example:

deviceRegister = require('balena-register-device')({
	request: request # An instantiated balena-request instance
})

deviceRegister.generateUniqueKey()

Generate a random key, useful for both uuid and api key.

Example:

randomKey = deviceRegister.generateUniqueKey()
# randomKey is a randomly generated key that can be used as either a uuid or an api key
console.log(randomKey)

deviceRegister.register(Object options, Function callback)

Register a device with Balena.

Notice: You can use this function as a promise if you omit the callback argument.

The options object requires the following properties:

• Number userId: The user id - optional.
• Number applicationId: The application id.
• String uuid: The device's UUID.
• String deviceType: The device type slug.
• String deviceApiKey: The API key to create for the newly registered device.
• String provisioningApiKey: The provisioning API Key.
• String apiEndpoint: The API endpoint.

The callback gets called with two arguments: (error, deviceInfo), where deviceInfo is an object containing one property: the id for the device that was just registered.

Example:

deviceRegister.register
		userId: 199
		applicationId: 10350
		uuid: '...'
		deviceType: 'raspberry-pi'
		deviceApiKey: '...'
		provisioningApiKey: '...'
		apiEndpoint: 'https://api.balena-cloud.com'
	, (error, deviceInfo) ->
		throw error if error?
		console.log(deviceInfo) # { id }
