Node.js REST Client for the PhoneGap Build API

PhoneGap Build API Node Module

Node.js REST Client for the PhoneGap Build API

Overview

This library simplifies authentication and requests to the PhoneGap Build REST API for node.js clients.

In many ways, this library is little more than a convenience wrapper for mikeal's request library. You can expect that all of request's functionality to be available to the API object returned by client.auth();.

If something is inaccurate or missing, please send a pull request!

Usage

Authenticate with Username and Password

var client = require('phonegap-build-api');

client.auth({ username: 'zelda', password: 'tr1f0rce' }, function(e, api) {

});

Authenticate with Token

var client = require('phonegap-build-api');

client.auth({ token: 'abc123' }, function(e, api) {
    // time to make requests
});

API

client.auth(options, callback)

PhoneGap Build Authentication.

Authentications with PhoneGap Build and returns an instance of API. The authentication credentials can be a username and password or user-token.

Options:

• options {Object} is the authentication settings.
• options.username {String} is the phonegap build username.
• options.password {String} is the phonegap build password.
• options.token {String} can be used instead of username and password.
• [options.protocol] {String} optional server protocol. e.g. 'https:'.
• [options.host] {String} optional server host. e.g. 'build.phonegap.com:'.
• [options.port] {String} optional server port. e.g. '443'.
• [options.path] {String} optional server path prefix. e.g. '/api/v1'.
• [options.proxy] {String} specifies an optional proxy server. e.g. 'http://myproxy.com:8181'.
• callback {Function} is trigger after the authentication.
  • e {Error} is null unless there is an error.
  • api {Object} is the API instance to interact with phonegap build.

Example:

var client = require('phonegap-build-api');

client.auth({ username: 'zelda', password: 'tr1force' }, function(e, api) {
    if (e) {
        console.log('error:', e);
        return;
    }

    // make some api requests
});

api(path, [options], [callback])

API Request.

Create a RESTful request to the PhoneGap Build API. The api function is a wrapper to request's interface.

The path parameter is a relative path to a PhoneGap Build API response. For example, to the resource https://build.phonegap.com/api/v1/me is specified as the path /me.

The options parameter maps directly to request's options.

The default request method is GET. You can specify a specific but you can be changed in the options parameters (e.g. { method: 'POST' }).

To send form data, you can use the options.form parameter. The key data is assumed to be JSON and all other keys are assumed to be file paths.

Options:

• path {String} is a relative resource path (e.g. "/apps").
• [options] {Object} is a request options object.
• [options.protocol] {String} optional server protocol. e.g. 'https:'.
• [options.host] {String} optional server host. e.g. 'build.phonegap.com:'.
• [options.port] {String} optional server port. e.g. '443'.
• [options.path] {String} optional server path prefix. e.g. '/api/v1'.
• [callback] {Function} is trigger after the request
  • e {Error} is null unless there is an error
  • data {Object} is the JSON response.

Example: GET Request

api('/me', function(e, data) {
    console.log('error:', e);
    console.log('data:', data);
});

Example: POST Request

var options = {
    form: {
        data: {
            title: 'My App',
            create_method: 'file'
        },
        file: '/path/to/app.zip'
    },
    method: 'POST'
};

api('/apps', options, function(e, data) {
    console.log('error:', e);
    console.log('data:', data);
});

api.get(path, [options], [callback])

GET API Request.

A convenience function for api(path, [options], [callback]), where options uses { method: 'GET' }.

Options:

• path {String} is a relative resource path (e.g. "/apps").
• [options] {Object} is a request options object.
• [callback] {Function} is trigger after the request
  • e {Error} is null unless there is an error
  • data {Object} is the JSON response.

api.get('/me', function(e, data) {
    console.log('error:', e);
    console.log('data:', data);
});

api.post(path, [options], [callback])

POST API Request.

A convenience function for api(path, [options], [callback]), where options uses { method: 'POST' }.

Options:

• path {String} is a relative resource path (e.g. "/apps").
• [options] {Object} is a request options object.
• [callback] {Function} is trigger after the request
  • e {Error} is null unless there is an error
  • data {Object} is the JSON response.

Example:

var options = {
    form: {
        data: {
            title: 'My App',
            create_method: 'file'
        },
        file: '/path/to/app.zip'
    }
};

api.post('/apps', options, function(e, data) {
    console.log('error:', e);
    console.log('data:', data);
});

api.put(path, [options], [callback])

PUT API Request.

A convenience function for api(path, [options], [callback]), where options uses { method: 'PUT' }.

Options:

• path {String} is a relative resource path (e.g. "/apps").
• [options] {Object} is a request options object.
• [callback] {Function} is trigger after the request
  • e {Error} is null unless there is an error
  • data {Object} is the JSON response.

Example:

var options = {
    form: {
        data: {
            debug: false
        },
        file: '/path/to/app.zip'
    }
};

api.put('/apps/197196', options, function(e, data) {
    console.log('error:', e);
    console.log('data:', data);
});

api.del(path, [options], [callback])

DELETE API Request.

A convenience function for api(path, [options], [callback]), where options uses { method: 'DELETE' }.

Options:

• path {String} is a relative resource path (e.g. "/apps").
• [options] {Object} is a request options object.
• [callback] {Function} is trigger after the request
  • e {Error} is null unless there is an error
  • data {Object} is the JSON response.

Example:

api.del('/apps/14450', function(e, data) {
    console.log('error:', e);
    console.log('data:', data);
});

api.defaults(options)

This maps directly to request's default method.

This method returns a wrapper around the normal request API that defaults to whatever options you pass in to it.
