bothan-api v0.0.2
bothan.js
A node.js client for Bothan, a simple platform for storing and publishing metrics.
Installation
npm install bothan-api
Testing
npm test
Usage
First require the Bothan client:
bothan = require('bothan')
Then initialize a connection with your username, password and the url of your Bothan endpoint:
bothan = new Bothan({user: 'username', pass: 'password', endpoint: 'https://demo.bothan.io'})
You will then be able to interact with your Bothan API like so:
Get all metrics
Returns a list of available metrics as an array of objects
bothan.listMetrics(function(data) {
console.log(data)
})
Find a metric
Latest value
Returns the latest value for a specified metric as an object
bothan.getMetric({'metric': 'simple-metric'}, function(data) {
console.log(data)
})
For a specific DateTime
Returns the most recent value of a metric at the specified datetime.
bothan.getMetric({'metric': 'simple-metric', 'time': '2016-12-12T07:00:24.465+00:00'}, function(data) {
console.log(data)
})
For a specific DateTime range
Returns all values of the metric between the specified times.
bothan.getMetric({'metric': 'simple-metric', 'from': '2016-12-01T07:00:22.851+00:00', 'to': '2016-12-05T07:00:22.459+00:00'}, function(data) {
console.log(data)
})
Create a metric
The Bothan API supports four types of metric, all supported by the gem.
Create a simple metric
// Create a metric called 'my-new-metric' with a value of '12' at the current datetime
bothan.createMetric({name: 'my-new-metric', value: 123}, function(data) {
console.log(data)
})
// Create a metric with a specific datetime
bothan.createMetric({name: 'my-new-metric', value: 123, time: '2016-12-23T00:00:00.000+00:00'}, function(data) {
console.log(data)
})
Create a metric with a target
// Create a metric called 'my-new-metric' with a value of '1091000', an annual target of '2862000' and a ytd target of '1368000' at the current datetime
bothan.createTargetMetric({name: 'my-new-target-metric', actual: 1091000, annual_target: 2862000, ytd_target: 1368000}, function() {
console.log(data)
})
// Create a metric with a target at a specific datetime
bothan.createTargetMetric({name: 'my-new-target-metric', actual: 1091000, annual_target: 2862000, ytd_target: 1368000, time: '2016-12-23T00:00:00.000+00:00'}, function() {
console.log(data)
})
// Create a metric without a ytd target
bothan.createTargetMetric({name: 'my-new-target-metric', actual: 1091000, annual_target: 2862000}, function() {
console.log(data)
})
// Create a metric without a ytd target at a specific datetime
bothan.createTargetMetric({name: 'my-new-target-metric', actual: 1091000, annual_target: 2862000, time: '2016-12-23T00:00:00.000+00:00'}, function() {
console.log(data)
})
Create a metric with multiple values
// Create a metric called 'my-new-metric' with multiple values with the current datetime
bothan.createMultipleMetric({name: 'my-new-metric', values: {
'value1': 123,
'value2': 23213,
'value4': 1235
}}, function(data) {
console.log(data)
})
// Create a metric called 'my-new-metric' with multiple values with a specific datetime
bothan.createMultipleMetric({name: 'my-new-metric', values: {
'value1': 123,
'value2': 23213,
'value4': 1235
}, time: '2016-12-23T00:00:00.000+00:00'}, function(data) {
console.log(data)
})
Create a metric with geodata
// Create a geodata metric called 'my-new-metric' with the current datetime
bothan.createGeoMetric({name: 'my-new-metric', values: {
'type' => 'Feature',
'geometry' => {
'type' => 'Point',
'coordinates' => [-2.6156582783015017, 54.3497405310758]
}
},
{
'type' => 'Feature',
'geometry' => {
'type' => 'Point',
'coordinates' => [-6.731370299641439, 55.856756177781186]
}
}
}, function(data) {
console.log(data)
})
// Create a geodata metric called 'my-new-metric' with a specific datetime
bothan.createGeoMetric({name: 'my-new-geometric', values: {
'type' => 'Feature',
'geometry' => {
'type' => 'Point',
'coordinates' => [-2.6156582783015017, 54.3497405310758]
}
},
{
'type' => 'Feature',
'geometry' => {
'type' => 'Point',
'coordinates' => [-6.731370299641439, 55.856756177781186]
}
}, time: '2016-12-23T00:00:00.000+00:00'}, function(data) {
console.log(data)
})
