coam-client v0.6.2

COAM thin client

A thin client to perform certain requests in COAM. This is not an exhaustive implementation of COAM API.

If you like to add a method (or tweak something), please open a pull-request. We love pull-requests! But we also love solving issues, so in case you don't really have the time for a pull-request right now, maybe you can just tell us what you'd like?

Or maybe you just feel like writing us a mail? Yes, you guessed right, we also love reading mails ;)

CoamClient class

A simple client to make API calls to COAM. It has a few additional features that can be controlled by the options parameter passed in the constructor.

const client = new CoamClient(options);

Accepted options are:

• accessToken (required) - The access token to use to authenticate the API calls
• baseUrl - Base COAM API URL. Defaults to https://api.cimpress.io
• retryAttempts - How many tries to retry the requests in case of failure*. Defaults to 2.
• retryDelayInMs - How many milliseconds to wait between retires. Defaults to 200.
• retryOnForbidden - A flag specifying if a retry has to be performed in case of 'Forbidden' response. Defaults to 'true'
• debugFunction - A function to call to provide debug information. Defaults to none.
• errorFunction - A function to call on error. Defaults to console.err;
• timeout - A value setting the timeout of the underlying HTTP calls to COAM. Defaults to 8000 (8 seconds). Set it to 0 for no timeout.
• skipCache - A flag specifying if cache should be skipped. Defaults to 'false'

Direct helper functions

In some cases, it is easier to simply call a function to perform the required action without the need for creating a specific client. The following helper methods satisfy these needs by creating a default client and performing the necessary requests.

Here is a list of helpers (name + required parameters):

• buildGroupUrlFromId(groupId)
• hasPermission(accessToken, principal, resourceType, resourceIdentifier, permission)
• grantRoleToPrincipal (accessToken, groupUrl, principal, roleName)
• getGroupInfo (accessToken, groupUrl)
• setAdminFlag (accessToken, groupId, principal, isAdmin)
• removeUserRole (accessToken, groupId, principal, role)
• addUserRole (accessToken, groupId, principal, role)
• modifyUserRoles (accessToken, groupId, principal, rolesChanges)
• addGroupMember (accessToken, groupId, principal, isAdmin)
• removeGroupMember (accessToken, groupId, principal)
• getRoles (accessToken)
• findPrincipals (accessToken, query)
• getPrincipal (accessToken, principal)
• createGroup (accessToken, name, description)
• removeGroup (accessToken, groupId)
• findGroups (accessToken, resourceType, resourceIdentifier, accountId, forAccountId, relationAccountId, isEssentialGroup, offset, limit, q)
• removeResourceFromGroup (accessToken, groupId, resourceType, resourceId)
• addResourceToGroup (accessToken, groupId, resourceType, resourceId)
• getUserPermissionsForResourceType (accessToken, principal, resourceType, include, permissionFilters)
• getUserPermissionsForResourceTypes (accessToken, principal, resourceTypes, include, permissionFilters)
• getUsersWithPermission (accessToken, resourceType, resourceIdentifier, permission)
• getUsersWithResource (accessToken, resourceType, permissionFilters)
• createGroupWithUser (accessToken, principalToCreateGroup, principalToAddToGroup, groupName, groupDescription, rolesToAdd, resourcesToAdd)
• group56 (accessToken, principal)

Important: All helper methods are using the CoamClient class with default settings (see above).
