nodejitsu-api/node.js

The Node.JS Nodejitsu-api library enables accessing Nodejitsu's RESTful API.

Example:

var nj = require('nodejitsu-api'),
    fs = require('fs');

var client = nj.createClient({
  username: 'marak',
  password: 'foobar',
  remoteUri: 'http://api.nodejitsu.com'
});

client.apps.list(function(err, result){
  if (err) {
    console.log(err);
    return;
  }
  console.log(JSON.stringify(result, null, 2, true));
});

Install:

This library may be installed using npm:

npm install nodejitsu-api

Usage:

api.createClient(options)

This method sets up a client for connecting to Nodejitsu's databases. Here's a minimal example for connecting to Nodejitsu's API as Marak:

var client = nj.createClient({
  username: 'marak',
  password: 'foobar',
  remoteUri: 'http://api.nodejitsu.com'
});

The options object contains three required properties:

• username: The username for your Nodejitsu account
• password: The password for your Nodejitsu account
• remoteUri: The uri of the api host (typically (http://api.nodejitsu.com)[http://api.nodejitsu.com]).

client

Method calls are generally structured as resource and action.

client.resource.action("data", function (err, result) {
  if (err) {
    throw err;
  }

  // use the result

});

Most actions take a string argument and a callback, though a few actions only take a callback.
