Node-FreeAgent2

Node.js OAuth2 REST Library for use with the FreeAgent v2 API. It provides a very thin wrapper around the API to deal with all of the boring stuff without sacrificing on flexibility.

Includes a passport strategy for plugging into the node-passport authentication library.

Note: This library provides a foundation for interacting with the REST API but is not complete.

##Install

npm install node-freeagent2

##Usage

The two components of this library - the API and the Authentication Strategy, can be used independently. First require the module.

FreeAgent = require 'node-freeagent2'

###API

freeAgent = new FreeAgent.Api 'auth_token'

freeAgent.getProjects (error, projects) ->
  unless error
    console.log projects
  else
    console.log error

Each REST resource has a corresponding method for GET. Requests using other HTTP verbs have not yet been implemented. Each method of the type GET has a consistent signature of:

getProjects : (optionsOrCallback, callback) ->

Except where the method is a convenience function for getById or something similar, in which case it takes the form:

getProjectById : (id, optionsOrCallback, callback) ->

###Passport Strategy

FreeAgentStrategy = FreeAgent.AuthenticationStragegy
passport.use 'freeagent', new FreeagentStrategy(options, ...)

##Contributing

Please help make this a better library, Pull requests and Issues are very welcome.

The project is written in CoffeeScript and built into JS, both sources are currently committed but I may change this.
The CoffeeScript and JS should be kept in sync at all times.

• Use cake watch during development.
• Place tests in /tests, execute with mocha using cake test
• Try to conform to coffeelint, check by regularly running cake lint
