pip-clients-sessions-nodex v1.0.0

Sessions Microservice Client SDK for Node.js

This is a Node.js client SDK for pip-services-sessions microservice. It provides an easy to use abstraction over communication protocols:

• HTTP/REST client
• Seneca client (see http://www.senecajs.org)
• Direct client for monolythic deployments
• Null client to be used in testing

• Development Guide
• API Version 1

Install

Add dependency to the client SDK into package.json file of your project

{
    ...
    "dependencies": {
        ....
        "pip-clients-sessions-nodex": "^1.0.*",
        ...
    }
}

Then install the dependency using npm tool

# Install new dependencies
npm install

# Update already installed dependencies
npm update

Use

Inside your code get the reference to the client SDK

var sdk = new require('pip-clients-sessions-nodex');

Define client configuration parameters that match configuration of the microservice external API

// Client configuration
var config = {
    connection: {
        protocol: 'http',
        host: 'localhost', 
        port: 8080
    }
};

Instantiate the client and open connection to the microservice

// Create the client instance
var client = sdk.SessionsHttpClientV1(config);

// Connect to the microservice

try {
    await client.open(null);

    // Work with the microservice
    ...
}
catch (err) {
    console.error('Connection to the microservice failed');
    console.error(err);
}

Now the client is ready to perform operations

// Opens user session
let session = await client.openSession(
    null,
    '123',
    'Test User',
    '192.168.1.1',
    'Test Client',
    null,
    null
);

// Get user sessions
let sessions = await client.getSessions(
    null,
    null,
    null
);
