contxt-sdk wercker status

Installation

The contxt-sdk can be installed with NPM:

npm install --save @ndustrial/contxt-sdk

Getting Started

Once installed, the minimum configuration you need to get going is to include the clientId of your application (from Auth0) and a string with the type of authentication you want to use (auth0WebAuth or machineAuth).

import ContxtSdk from '@ndustrial/contxt-sdk';

const contxtSdk = new ContxtSdk({
  config: {
    auth: {
      clientId: 'example clientId from auth0'
    }
  },
  sessionType: 'auth0WebAuth'
});

contxtSdk.facilities.getAll().then((facilities) => {
  console.log(`all of my facilities: ${JSON.stringify(facilities)}`);
});

Information about using the auth0WebAuth and machineAuth modules is available in the API docs here (auth0WebAuth) and here (machineAuth). Additional information about configuration options can also be found in the API docs.

Adding in external modules

At times when building your application, there might be a Contxt API that you need to reach that is not currently included in the contxt-sdk package. To help out with this, we've created a way to include an external module into the SDK when creating an SDK instance that allows the external module to act as a first class extension of the SDK's API.

To do this, just include information about the module when creating your contxt-sdk instance:

import ContxtSdk from 'contxt-sdk';
import NewModule from './NewModule';

const contxtSdk = new ContxtSdk({
  config: {
    auth: {
      clientId: 'example clientId from auth0'
    }
  },
  externalModules: {
    newModule: {
      clientId: 'The Auth0 Id of the API you are communicated with',
      host: 'http://newModule.example.com',
      module: NewModule
    }
  },
  sessionType: 'auth0WebAuth'
});

contxtSdk.newModule.doWork();

When we decorate your external module into your SDK instance, it is treated just like one of the native, internal modules and is provided with the SDK instance (so you can use other parts of the SDK from your new module) and its own request module, which will handle API tokens if you are working with a Contxt API.

class NewModule {
  constructor(sdk, request) {
    this._baseUrl = `${sdk.config.audiences.newModule.host}/v1`;
    this._request = request;
    this._sdk = sdk;
  }

  doWork() {
    return this._request.patch(`${this._baseUrl}/data`, { work: 'finished' });
  }
}

export default NewModule;

Development

Building the package

Gulp is used to build the source code in CommonJS and ES Module distributions that can be used across many platforms. These distributions are both built by running one command: npm run build. If you'd like to continuously create builds as files are changed (i.e. if you are developing new features and have set things up correctly with npm link to serve the newly updated files to your app), you can run npm run watch. Currently, the docs are built by a custom script, but may move to Gulp in the future.

If there is a module that needs to be different between browser and Node implementations, this can be achieved by creating a separate file with a file name indicating it is only for a browser (like module.browser.js) and adding the source path and replacement path of the files to the browser section of the package.json (example below). It will need to be added for both the esm and lib directories to account for whether the end user is using CommonJS or ES modules. When the client application is built, Webpack will pick up the browser version instead of the Node version.

{
  ... other stuff
  "main": "lib/index.js",
  "module": "esm/index.js",
  "browser": {
    "./esm/module.js": "./esm/module.browser.js",
    "./lib/module.js": "./lib/module.browser.js",
  }
  ... other stuff
}

Testing & Code Quality

Some important NPM tasks for running the test suite:

  • npm test - Lints, sets up tracking for Istanbul coverage reports, and runs the test suite
  • npm run test:js - Runs the test suite
  • npm run test:js:dev - Runs the test suite in watch mode, where the tests are re-run whenever a file changes
  • npm run test:js:inspect - Runs the test suite in inspect/inspect-brk mode. Insert a debugger somewhere in your code and connect to the debugger with this command. (Node 8: visit chrome://inspect to connect. Node 6: Copy and paste the blob provided in the terminal into Chrome to connect. Older versions also have ways to connect.)
  • npm run lint - Lints the source code
  • npm run coverage - Sets up tracking for Istanbul coverage reports and runs the test suite
  • npm run report - Parses the Istanbul coverage reports and writes them to file (in ./coverage) and displays them in terminal

Some tools used for testing and ensuring code quality include:

Additionally, some globals have been added to the testing environment to streamline the process slightly:

  • expect - Corresponds with require('chai').expect. Info
  • faker - Corresponds with require('faker'). Info
  • sandbox - Corresponds with require('sinon').sandbox. Should be used anytime when wanting to create a sinon.spy or sinon.stub as it can be easily used to reset/restore multiple spys and stubs. Info

Contributing/Publishing

There are certain steps that should be taken when contributing and publishing a new release of the contxt-sdk.

Contributing

We use jsdoc-to-markdown for documentation which should be committed to source control. The docs are set up to build and be added to git on a pre-commit hook using husky so you shouldn't need to run an additional command to build the docs before submitting a pull request.

Publishing

There are certain steps that should be taken when publishing a release to NPM to avoid any issues or problems. After your pull request is approved and merged into master, follow the steps below.

  1. Checkout master locally and perform a git pull origin master so your local repo is up to date with your merged changes.
  2. Run npm version x.x.x in your terminal on master where the x's are the new version numbers.
    • This sets the new version in package.json and package-lock.json and also creates a new git tag.
    • Example npm version 0.30.1
  3. Perform a git push --tags origin master while on your local copy of master.
  4. Perform an npm publish to publish the updated package to NPM.

You've now successfully updated and published the package.
