npm install keycloak-admin-client -S
'use strict';
let adminClient = require('./');
let settings = {
baseUrl: 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/auth',
username: 'admin',
password: 'admin',
grant_type: 'password',
client_id: 'admin-cli'
};
adminClient(settings)
.then((client) => {
console.log('client', client);
client.realms.find()
.then((realms) => {

console.log('Error', err);
});
To run the tests, you'll need to have a keycloak server running. No worries!
This is all taken care of for you. Just run ./scripts/start-server.sh.
If you don't already have a server downloaded, this script will download one
for you, start it, initialize the admin user, and then restart.
Then just run the tests.
make test
To stop the server, run ./scripts/stop-server.sh.
The API has been changed to logically group up(namespace) functionality.
For example, the 0.1.0 way of getting a list of all realms was by calling the client.realms function.
Now in 0.2.0, you would do something like this: client.realms.find
find can also be used to get 1 realm by passing in the realmName: client.realms.find('master')
The other methods have been renamed too, for example, instead of calling client.updateRealm you would now call client.realms.update
