bluesky

node-bluesky

A lightweight, simplified node.js library for accessing Windows Azure storage

Usage

var s = require('bluesky').storage({account: 'account', key: 'key'});

// queues, with events
var q = s.queue('happenings');
q.on('message', function(msg, done) {
  console.log(msg);
  done();  // delete the message
});
q.poll(1000);

// blobs, as streams
var c1 = s.container('new');
var c2 = s.container('old');
c1.get('readme.txt').pipe(c2.put('archive.txt'));

// and tables, oh my! 
var t = s.table('folks');
t.filter({'isPremium': true}).rows().on('data', function(err, row) {
  console.log(row.user + ', ' + row.visits + ', ' + row.isPremium);
});

See the tests for additional examples, and the wiki for API documentation and a Road Map.
