HuaweiCloud Node.js Software Development Kit (Node.js SDK)

The HuaweiCloud Node.js SDK allows you to easily work with Huawei Cloud services such as Elastic Compute Service (ECS) and Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) without the need to handle API related tasks.

This document introduces how to obtain and use HuaweiCloud Node.js SDK.

Getting Started

• To use HuaweiCloud Node.js SDK, you must have Huawei Cloud account as well as the Access Key and Secret key of the HuaweiCloud account.

  The accessKey is required when initializing {Service}Client. You can create an AccessKey in the Huawei Cloud console. For more information, see My Credentials.

• HuaweiCloud Node.js SDK requires Node 10.16.1 or later.

Install Node.js SDK

You could obtain and install Node.js SDK through following methods:

• Installing Dependencies Using NPM (Recommended)

  Using npm to install project dependencies is the recommended method to use Node.js SDK:

  You must depended on @huaweicloud/huaweicloud-sdk-core library no matter which product/service development kit you need to use. Take using Devstar SDK for example, you need to install @huaweicloud/huaweicloud-sdk-devstar library:

  npm install @huaweicloud/huaweicloud-sdk-devstar
  

Use Node.js SDK

1. Import the required modules as follows

   // User identity authentication 
   import { BasicCredentials } from "@huaweicloud/huaweicloud-sdk-core/auth/BasicCredentials";
   import { GlobalCredentials } from "@huaweicloud/huaweicloud-sdk-core/auth/GlobalCredentials";
   // {Service}Client, replace Devstar to your specified service, take DevStarClient for example
   import { DevStarClient } from "@huaweicloud/huaweicloud-sdk-devstar/v1/DevStarClient";
   // Import the corresponding product model
   import { ShowJobDetailRequest } from '@huaweicloud/huaweicloud-sdk-devstar/v1/model/ShowJobDetailRequest';
   

2. Config the {Service}Client configurations

   2.1 Use default configuration

   // Use default configuration
   const client = DevStarClient.newBuilder()
   

   2.2 Proxy(Optional)

   // Use proxy if needed
   client.withProxyAgent("http://username:[e-mail]")
   

   2.3 SSL Certification(Optional)

   // Skip ssl certification checking while using https protocol if needed
   process.env.NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED = "0"
   

3. Initialize Credentials

   3.1 Use permanent AK/SK

   // Regional Services   
   const basicCredentials = new BasicCredentials()
       .withAk('ak')
       .withSk('sk')
       .withProjectId('projectId')
   
   // Global Services   
   const globalCredentials = new GlobalCredentials()
      .withAk('ak')
      .withSk('sk')
      .withDomainId('domainId')
   

   where:

   For project services, you only need to provide projectId, domainId is optional. While using global services, projectId must be null, and domainId should be filled in according to the actual situation. Global services only contains IAM(Identity and Access Management) currently.

   • ak is the access key ID for your account.
   • sk is the secret access key for your account.
   • projectId is the ID of your project depending on your region which you want to operate.
   • domainId is the account ID of huawei cloud.

   3.2 Use temporary AK/SK

   It's preferred to obtain temporary access key, security key and security token first, which could be obtained through permanent access key and security key or through an agency.

   Obtaining a temporary access key token through permanent access key and security key, you could refer to document: https://support.huaweicloud.com/en-us/api-iam/iam_04_0002.html . The API mentioned in the document above corresponds to the method of createTemporaryAccessKeyByToken in IAM SDK.

   Obtaining a temporary access key and security token through an agency, you could refer to document: https://support.huaweicloud.com/en-us/api-iam/iam_04_0101.html . The API mentioned in the document above corresponds to the method of createTemporaryAccessKeyByAgency in IAM SDK.

       // Region级服务
       const basicCredentials = new BasicCredentials()
           .withAk('ak')
           .withSk('sk')
           .withSecurityToken('securityToken')
           .withProjectId('projectId')
      
       // Global级服务
       const globalCredentials = new GlobalCredentials()
           .withAk('ak')
           .withSk('sk')
           .withSecurityToken('securityToken')
           .withDomainId('domainId')
   
   

4. Initialize the {Service}Client instance

   const client = DevStarClient.newBuilder()
       .withCredential(basicCredentials)
       .withEndpoint(endpoint)
       .withProxyAgent(proxy)
       .build()
   

   where:

   • endpoint is the service specific endpoints, see Regions and Endpoints.

5. Send a request and print response

   const result = client.showJobDetail(new ShowJobDetailRequest("id"));
   result.then(result => {
       res.send("JSON.stringify(result)::" + JSON.stringify(result))
   }).catch(ex => {
       res.send("exception:" + JSON.stringify(ex))
   });
   

6. Exceptions

   Level 1	Notice	Level 2	Notice
   ConnectionException	Connection error	HostUnreachableException	Host is not reachable
   		SslHandShakeException	SSL certification error
   RequestTimeoutException	Request timeout	CallTimeoutException	timeout for single request
   		RetryOutageException	no response after retrying
   ServiceResponseException	service response error	ServerResponseException	server inner error, http status code: [500,]
   		ClientRequestException	invalid request, http status code: [400? 500)

   if (httpStatusCode >= 400 && httpStatusCode < 500) {
       return new ClientRequestException(httpStatusCode, errorData);
   } else if (httpStatusCode >= 500 && httpStatusCode < 600) {
       return new ServerResponseException(httpStatusCode, errorData);
   } else {
       return new ServiceResponseException(httpStatusCode, errorData);
   }
   

7. Access Log

   The SDK will print the access log by default, every request will be recorded in console like:

   16:53:04.905 [main] INFO HuaweiCloud-SDK-Access - "GET https://ecs.cn-southwest-2.myhuaweicloud.com/v1/077d6a6c19000fdd2f3bc00150080291/cloudservers/detail?offset=1&limit=25" 200 2251 deabe20c14f997a0291fc451a4da16a4
   16:53:06.212 [main] INFO HuaweiCloud-SDK-Access - "PUT https://ecs.cn-southwest-2.myhuaweicloud.com/v1/077d6a6c19000fdd2f3bc00150080291/cloudservers/1aeac6fb-a2f2-48dc-9052-36637d119dd3" 200 880 f16f70e3fe245c11ab741760f8689a01
   17:02:37.734 [main] INFO HuaweiCloud-SDK-Access - "GET https://ecs.cn-southwest-2.myhuaweicloud.com/v1/077d6a6c19000fdd2f3bc00150080291/cloudservers/detail?offset=1&limit=-1" 400 165 8c3c8b6fed4482d28e1929a78dc93f04
   

   SDK access log name is "HuaweiCloud-SDK-Access", and out log format is:

   "{httpMethod} {uri}" {httpStatusCode} {responseContentLength} {requestId}
   

   Where:

   • requestId is the ID returned by HuaweiCloud API Gateway, which can be used for user guarantee or issue tracking.

   You can shield access log in the log configuration depending on your project, or print access log to an independent file.

8. Original HTTP Listener

   In some situation, you may need to debug your http requests, original http request and response information will be needed. The SDK provides a listener function to obtain the original encrypted http request and response information.

   :warning: Warning: The original http log information are used in debugging stage only, please do not print the original http header or body in the production environment. These log information are not encrypted and contain sensitive data such as the password of your ECS virtual machine or the password of your IAM user account, etc. When the response body is binary content, the body will be printed as "***" without detailed information.

   Set the environment variable process.env.NODE_DEBUG or process.env.DEBUG to enable debug log printing.

   if (process.env.NODE_DEBUG === 'axios' || process.env.DEBUG) {
       this.axiosInstance.interceptors.request.use((config: any) => {
           logger.debug('Request:');
           try {
               logger.debug(JSON.stringify(config, null, 2));
           } catch {
               logger.error(config)
           }
   
           return config;
       }, (error: any) => {
           logger.error('Error: ');
           try {
               logger.error(JSON.stringify(error, null, 2));
           } catch {
               logger.error(error);
           }
           // @ts-ignore
           return Promise.reject(error);
       });
   
       this.axiosInstance.interceptors.response.use((response: any) => {
           logger.debug('Response:');
           try {
               logger.debug(JSON.stringify(response, null, 2));
           } catch {
               logger.error(response);
           }
   
           return response;
       }, (error: any) => {
           logger.error('Error: ');
           try {
               logger.error(JSON.stringify(error, null, 2));
           } catch {
               logger.error(error);
           }
           // @ts-ignore
           return Promise.reject(error);
       });
   }
   

Code Example

• The following example shows how to query job detail, you need to substitute your real {Service}Client for DevStarClient in actual use.

• Substitute the values for {your ak string}, {your sk string}, {your endpoint string}, {your project id}and {job id}.

  import express = require('express');
  import { DevStarClient } from "@huaweicloud/huaweicloud-sdk-devstar/v1/DevStarClient";
  import { BasicCredentials } from "@huaweicloud/huaweicloud-sdk-core/auth/BasicCredentials";
  import { ShowJobDetailRequest } from '@huaweicloud/huaweicloud-sdk-devstar/v1/model/ShowJobDetailRequest';
  
  // Create a new express application instance
  const app: express.Application = express();
  app.get('/', function (req: any, res: { send: (arg0: string) => void; }) {
    const client = DevStarClient.newBuilder()
        .withCredential(new BasicCredentials()
            .withAk("{your ak string}")
            .withSk("{your sk string}")
            .withProjectId("{your project id}"))
        .withEndpoint("{your endpoint string}")
        .withProxyAgent("")
        .build();
     
        
    const result = client.showJobDetail(new ShowJobDetailRequest("{job id}"));
    result.then(result => {
      res.send("JSON.stringify(result)::" + JSON.stringify(result))
    }).catch(ex => {
      res.send("exception:" + JSON.stringify(ex))
    });
  });
  app.listen(3000, function () {
    console.log('Example app listening on port 3000!');
  });
