Showell Api Client

Showell Api Client is a library for connecting to Showell HTTP APIs. The Api Client provides actually multiple clients, including a generic Service client and Service-specific clients.

Using Api Client

The Service Client provides an exec method that accepts arguments endpoint and params.

import initialize from 'showell-api-client';

// Initialize API with valid Access Token
const api = initialize({ accessToken: 'ad1b...' });

api
  .client('service')
  .exec('file-system/find', {
    query: "[name='HelloWorld.pdf']",
    specs: { name: true },
  })
  .then(file => console.log(file.name));

Using Service-specific Client

The Service-specific Clients often provide a more developer-friendly access to the service APIs.

api
  .client('file-system')
  .find({
    query: "[name='HelloWorld.pdf']",
    specs: { name: true },
  })
  .then(file => console.log(file.name));

Service-specific clients are not available for all services.

Alternative authentication using username/password

const api = initialize();
await api.authenticate({ username: 'my-user', password: 'adxG...' });

Other features

If you have a need to do a direct call to Showell services and there's no client available, you can also import fetchApi implementation from package. It will set correct headers based on crrect params.
