Lazarus Strikes npm Again with New Wave of Malicious Packages
The Socket Research Team has discovered six new malicious npm packages linked to North Korea’s Lazarus Group, designed to steal credentials and deploy backdoors.
floca-rest-client
Advanced tools
Client for webapps to connect to services in a floca-based projects published via REST.
Require your connector:
var Connector = require('floca-rest-client');
Then initialise it:
var options = {
harconName: 'Floca',
jwtRequestPath: '/sys/request-a-token', // optional
API_KEY: 'SecretKeyHere' // optional
};
Connector.init( options, function(err, res){});
You have to specify the name of the floca-server you want to connect-to. If the floca-services are protected by API_KEY and/or JWT, you can set the attributes to support them.
Floca might expose services following the REST pattern or the Harcon RPC
The Connector possesses 2 functions to support both protocols with the same signature.
For REST services, use the function harconREST as below:
var options = {};
Connector.harconREST( division, context, service, params, options, function(err, res){ } );
} );
If the floca-service is exposed through Harcon RPC, use the function harcomm as below:
var options = {};
Connector.harcomm( division, context, service, params, options, function(err, res){ } );
} );
Addressing follows the logic of harcon used by floca heavily.
And you are ready to go!
Please check the other client connectors : for AMQP and for Websocket
