icm-js-client v0.0.4

InformaCast Mobile REST Client

A simple REST client for Node to communicate with the InformaCast Mobile API. This library defines a simple wrapper around the great rest library. Because of this, the format of request params and client configuration params are the same.

Installation

Node

npm install icm-js-client --save

Browser

bower install icm-js-client --save

Usage

Make sure to require the client in your code

Node

var ICMClient = require('icm-nodejs-client');

Browser

<script type="text/javascript" src="vendor/bundle.min.js"></script>

Create an instance of the client

var client = ICMClient({
    token: 'KBXCNEAYXEI6JOUVXDUFMMTXI3PHWUNALIPBDZFLGGFB2AZ5YM5HDYNJFLIVWX6ZT56A='
});

A list of options that can be passed to create the client can be found in the table below:

Create

client.users().create({entity: {name: 'John Smith', email: 'john.smith@acme.com'}});
client.notifications().create({entity: {messageTemplateId: 'cc93bfd0-9917-11e4-a401-c22f013130a9', subject: 'FooBar'}});

Read

To read an individual resource:

client.users('fa875180-7fc3-11e4-a09c-7a198bebdf90').show();
client.users('fa875180-7fc3-11e4-a09c-7a198bebdf90').notifications('3bc560d0-974b-11e4-b83f-1ae59cb5b126').show();

To list/paginate/search a resource:

// List with the default page size
client.users().list();

// List with max of 50 per page
client.users().list({params: {limit: 50}});

// Search for users with the name John
client.users().list({params: {q: 'John'}});

// The client library a helper method to make pagination easier
client.paginate(client.users().list(), function(usersPage) {
    // Do something awesome with this page
    return true; // Return true to get the next page (if available), false to stop
}, function(error) {
    // Something went wrong!
});

Update

client.users('de7b51a0-5a1e-11e4-ab31-8a1d033dd637').update({entity: {name: 'John Jacob Smith'}});
client.distributionLists('dada08f0-7fc3-11e4-a09c-7a198bebdf90').update({entity: {name: 'Updated Name'}});

Delete

client.users('de7b51a0-5a1e-11e4-ab31-8a1d033dd637').remove();
client.distributionLists('dada08f0-7fc3-11e4-a09c-7a198bebdf90').remove();

Note

Every request returns a Promise object and can be used as described below. The response format can be found in the Common Response Properties section of the rest docs.

var responsePromise = ...;
responsePromise.then(function(response) {
    // Request was successful, process the data
}, function (error) {
    // Request failed
});
