jsforce

Salesforce API Library for JavaScript applications (both on web browser and Node.js)

Overview

JSforce (f.k.a. Node-Salesforce) is an isomorphic JavaScript Library utilizing Salesforce's API: It works both in the browser and with Node.js.

It capsulates the access to various APIs provided by Salesforce in asynchronous JavaScript function calls.

It also has command line interface (CLI) which gives interactive console (REPL), so you can learn the usage without hassle.

Supported Salesforce APIs are the following:

• REST API (SOQL, SOSL, describe, etc.)
• Apex REST
• Analytics API
• Bulk API
• Chatter API
• Metadata API
• SOAP API
• Streaming API
• Tooling API
