breeze-chms

The breeze-chms javascript library provides convenient access to the Breeze REST API from applications written in server-side JavaScript (Node).

Disclaimer: API wrappers are not necessarily created or maintained by Breeze.

Installation

Install the package with:

npm install breeze-chms --save
# or
yarn add breeze-chms

Usage

The package needs to be configured with your account's subdomain and secret API key. The subdomain is what comes before breezechms.com in your browser address bar. Your unique/secret API key is available on the Extensions page of your Breeze account https://YOURSUBDOMAIN.breezechms.com/extensions/api. Require the package and initialize it with values for your subdomain and API key.

NOTE: DO NOT hardcode, expose, or otherwise commit your API key to a repository.

const breeze = require('breeze-chms')('SUBDOMAIN', 'APIKEY');

breeze.people
  .get('PERSONID')
  .then((person) => console.log(person.id))
  .catch((error) => console.error(error));

Or using ES modules and async/await:

import Breeze from 'breeze-chms';
const breeze = new Breeze('SUBDOMAIN', 'APIKEY');

(async () => {
  const person = await breeze.people.get('PERSONID');
  console.log(person.id);
})();

This package uses Typescript and comes fully typed meaning it can provide code-hinting via Intellisense. If you're not familiar with Typescript—get started today!

Contributing

Feel free to open a pull-request with any changes if you'd like to help out! To develop locally, go through these few steps to get up and running:

> git clone https://github.com/Notebird-App/breeze-chms
> cd breeze-chms
> npm install

Next, you'll need to add a .env file to the root directory that looks something like this (replacing the values with your own, of course):

subdomain=YOURSUBDOMAIN
key=YOURAPIKEY

This let's you properly run the tests via Jest. However, they might fail at first because they rely on a couple custom profile fields to be present in your account. So you can add Anniversary, Date joined, Service, and Room Number in your Breeze account as custom text fields. (You can remove these later if you wish)
