Keiser Metrics SDK

Release

Project

This SDK facilitates communication between a client system (ie: phone app, website, server) and Keiser Metrics. The SDK is written in TypeScript and supports both browser and NodeJS platforms.

For a more information about this SDK visit the Keiser Developer Zone.

To play around with the SDK try out the Keiser Metrics SDK REPL.

To see the full SDK API view the Keiser Metrics SDK Documentation.

Installation

Install with npm: npm install @keiser/metrics-sdk

Initialization

Import the SDK package root class and instantiate a Metrics connection instance. Each instance maintains a connection to the Keiser Metrics servers so only one instance should be created per an application.

This instance handles multiplexing requests, throttling, and request retries automatically. The default implementation for browsers uses a WebSocket connection, but it will fall back to a normal HTTP request strategy if WebSockets are not supported. The NodeJS implementation will always use HTTP requests.

import Metrics from '@keiser/metrics-sdk'

const metrics = new Metrics()

When developing against a local deployment, or a mocking endpoint, configure the Metrics connection from the initial Metrics instantiation.

import Metrics from '@keiser/metrics-sdk'

const metrics = new Metrics({restEndpoint: 'http://localhost:8000/api', socketEndpoint: 'ws://localhost:8000/ws'})

Authentication

The base Metrics instance is a connection handler with access to only limited information. To access user specific information a UserSession must be created by authenticating through one of the available mechanisms:

const userSession = await metrics.authenticateWithCredentials({email: 'demo@keiser.com', password: 'password'})

The result of an authentication request is a UserSession which contains methods for interacting with the user's data as well as mechanisms for controlling the session.

To log-out a user, call teh logout() method on the UserSession.

await userSession.logout()

To restore an authenticated session, store the refresh token string and use the authenticateWithToken authentication mechanism to restore the session. The refresh token needs to be stored in a secure place that will persist between sessions (ie: Local Storage) and is valid for 90 days from it's creation.

const refreshTokenKey = 'refreshToken'
const userSession = await metrics.authenticateWithCredentials({email: 'demo@keiser.com', password: 'password'})

localStorage.setItem(refreshTokenKey, userSession.refreshToken)

userSession.onRefreshTokenChangeEvent.subscribe(({refreshToken}) => {
  // Will update token in local storage each time it is updated
  localStorage.setItem(refreshTokenKey, refreshToken)
})

// On next application start
const refreshToken = localStorage.getItem(refreshTokenKey)
const userSession = await metrics.authenticateWithToken({token: refreshToken})

Accessing User Data

The UserSession instance contains a user property accessor for the authenticated user's User class.

const userSession = await metrics.authenticateWithCredentials({email: 'demo@keiser.com', password: 'password'})

console.log(userSession.user.eagerProfile().name)

All properties exposed by the User class and it's children readonly. Most classes have eager loaded associated classes which are accessed through function calls prefixed with eager (ex: user.eagerProfile). While the data for the eager classes is already stored, the class is not instantiated until the method is called and each call will instantiate a new class, so it is recommended to store the eager class locally. Separate instances will also be out of sync as changes to one instance will not be reflected in other instances. The reload() method available on most classes will bring the instance in sync with the current server state.

let userProfile1 = userSession.user.eagerProfile()
let userProfile2 = userSession.user.eagerProfile()

console.log(userProfile1 === userProfile2)           // Output: false
console.log(userProfile1.name === userProfile2.name) // Output: true

await userProfile1.update({name: 'Pickle Rick'})
console.log(userProfile1 === userProfile2)           // Output: false
console.log(userProfile1.name === userProfile2.name) // Output: false

await userProfile2.reload()
console.log(userProfile1 === userProfile2)           // Output: false
console.log(userProfile1.name === userProfile2.name) // Output: true
// Recommended usage example
function generateUsername(user: User) {
  const profile = user.eagerProfile()

  return profile?.name ? profile.name.replace(/\s/, '_').toLowerCase() : 'unknown_username'
}

Model Association Structure

All model data is nested under it's parent associations in an tree structure stemming from the base session object (UserSession, FacilitySession). All model references are generated at access and will not be persisted in memory by the SDK so local references are necessary to persist data. Most associated data models will be accessed through async method calls with the prefix get for single model instantiations, and list for multiple model instantiations.

// Variable `strengthExercises` will be an array containing up to 20 instances of strength exercises with 'back' in the exercise alias (name)
const strengthExercises = await userSession.getStrengthExercises({ defaultAlias: 'back', limit: 20 })

// Variable `strengthExercise` will contain a single strength exercise instance with 'id' equal to 1000
const strengthExercise = await userSession.getStrengthExercise({ id: 1000 })

Paginated Data

All plural User data methods (ex: user.getEmailAddresses()) will return an ordered array of class instances. These arrays have an extended meta property which contains the parameters used to query the array, the sorting properties, and a totalCount property which is the total number of instances associated with the parent class. By default these method will limit responses to 20 instances.

// Default call will return 20 entities with uncertain sorting
const emailAddresses = await user.getEmailAddresses()

// Will return 10 entities, sorted by Email property in ascending order, starting at ordered entity 1 (first)
const firstPageOfEmailAddresses = await user.getEmailAddresses({sort: EmailAddressSorting.Email, ascending: true, limit: 10, offset: 0})
const totalNumberOfEmailAddresses = emailAddresses.meta.totalCount

// Same sorting as previous call, but now will return the elements starting at ordered entity 31 (3rd page of entities)
const thirdPageOfEmailAddresses = await user.getEmailAddresses({sort: EmailAddressSorting.Email, ascending: true, limit: 10, offset: 30})

// Will return 10 entities that contain "@gmail.com", sorted and ordered
const searchResultEmailAddresses = await user.getEmailAddresses({email: '@gmail.com', sort: EmailAddressSorting.Email, ascending: true, limit: 10, offset: 0})

Updating Data

All data models and properties are externally immutable and act as functional data structures (though the implementation is not purely functional). Properties will change with calls to methods on the model (update, reload, delete). These mutating methods will always return a mutated instance of the model, but the existing model instance will also be mutated in place. There are no events emitted on mutation.

This restriction on direct property mutation preserves the integrity of the data within the SDK by ensuring the data always represents the actual data in the Metrics server.

// This will result in an error
profile.name = 'Rick Sanchez'

// Instead, issue an update
console.log(profile.name) // Outputs: 'Richard Sanchez'

await profile.update({ ...profile, name: 'Rick Sanchez' })

console.log(profile.name) // Outputs: 'Rick Sanchez'

Update calls are always full replacements of the model, so properties not included in the update parameters will be cast to null in the data model. Best practice is to expand the model and then override the property changes in the new model instance to ensure there is no unintended data loss.

// Performing an update with a partial property will result in loss of other properties.
console.log(profile.language) // Outputs: 'en'

await profile.update({ name: 'Rick Sanchez' })

console.log(profile.language) // Outputs: null

// Instead, expand the model to ensure that data is not lost
console.log(profile.language) // Outputs: 'en'

await profile.update({ ...profile, name: 'Rick Sanchez' })

console.log(profile.language) // Outputs: 'en'

Error Handling

All errors are handled by throwing inside the method call with the expectation of a try/catch to catch the error.

All errors will be thrown as a typed error instance corresponding to the reason for the error, with the global Error as the base instance, and an intermediate category type inheritance (for easier bucketing).

let userSession
try {
  userSession = await metrics.authenticateWithCredentials({email: 'demo@keiser.com', password: 'wrongPassword'})
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof RequestError) {
    if (error instanceof InvalidCredentialsError) {
      this.userCredentialsIncorrect()
    } else if (error instanceof ValidationError) {
      this.userCredentialsValidationError()
    }
  } else if (error instanceof ServerError) {
    this.serverDown()
  }
}

Error Categories

NameReason
RequestIssue with the parameters provided for the request
SessionIssue with the session instance (session is no longer valid)
ServerIssue with the server (potentially overloaded or offline)
ConnectionIssue with connection to server

Common Errors

NameCategoryReason
Missing ParamsRequestParameters are missing from action (potentially null or undefined)
Invalid CredentialsRequestInvalid login credentials (don't match any active user)
ValidationRequestParameters are present but do not pass validation
Unknown EntityRequestRequest target does not exist (deleted or never existed)
Duplicate EntityRequestCannot create a new instance because identical one exists
Unauthorized ResourceRequestInsufficient permissions to access the target
Action PreventedRequestRequest cannot be performed for reason other than those above (edge cases)
Facility Access ControlRequestRequest is prevented due to facility access control limitations

Closing Connection

The base Metrics instance maintains an active connection until it is disposed, so it is recommended to dispose the connection by calling dispose() once the connection is no longer needed.

metrics.dispose()
