There have been some potentially breaking changes in v6:

• Prior to v6, the browser version of connector would expose all of the thrift types on window. v6 will continue to do this if you import the script using a standard html <script> tag. But, if you are using a bundler or module system (such as webpack), that is no longer the case. These types will be exported instead (so you can, for example, import { TPixel } from "@heavyai/connector/dist/browser-connector")
• All of the xAsync functions return a Promise - that hasn't changed. The corresponding non-Async functions (ie, query vs queryAsync) now also return Promises. The callback argument on these non-Async versions is optional since you can just use then or catch or the Promise. It's impossible to run any function synchronously now, however. In other words, if you call query without a callback, it's going to run asynchronously and return a Promise.

Example

Open example.html in your browser for a basic query call.

Quick Start for Developers

npm ci
npm run build
npm run docs # opens API docs in your browser.

Testing

Everything in connector should be unit-tested and linted. You can find these tests in /test.

The linter and all tests run on

npm test

Linting

It's our eventual goal to fully lint the files in heavyai-con/src. Try to write libraries/heavyai-con using the projects/dashboard-v2 Es6/7 style to make this goal easier to achieve.
