PhoneGap Build API Node Module
Node.js REST Client for the PhoneGap Build API
Overview
This library simplifies authentication and requests to the
PhoneGap Build REST API for node.js clients.
In many ways, this library is little more than a convenience wrapper
for mikeal's request library. You can expect
that all of request's functionality to be available to the
API
object returned by client.auth();
.
If something is inaccurate or missing, please send a pull request!
Usage
Authenticate with Username and Password
var client = require('phonegap-build-api');
client.auth({ username: 'zelda', password: 'tr1f0rce' }, function(e, api) {
// time to make requests
});
Authenticate with Token
var client = require('phonegap-build-api');
client.auth({ token: 'abc123' }, function(e, api) {
// time to make requests
});

API
client.auth(options, callback)

Authentications with PhoneGap Build and returns an instance of API
.
The authentication credentials can be a username and password or user-token.
Options:
options
{Object}
is the authentication settings.options.username
{String}
is the phonegap build username.options.password
{String}
is the phonegap build password.options.token
{String}
can be used instead of username and password.- [
options.protocol
] {String}

options.host
] {String}
optional server host. e.g. 'build.phonegap.com:'. - [
options.port
] {String}
optional server port. e.g. '443'. - [
options.path
] {String}
optional server path prefix. e.g. '/api/v1'. - [
options.proxy
] {String}

{Function}
is trigger after the authentication.
e
{Error}
is null unless there is an error.api
{Object}
is the API
instance to interact with phonegap build.
Example:
var client = require('phonegap-build-api');
client.auth({ username: 'zelda', password: 'tr1force' }, function(e, api) {
if (e) {
console.log('error:', e);
return;
}
// make some api requests
});
api(path, [options], [callback])
API Request.
Create a RESTful request to the PhoneGap Build API. The api
function is a
wrapper to request's interface.
The path
parameter is a relative path to a PhoneGap Build API response.
For example, to the resource https://build.phonegap.com/api/v1/me
is specified
as the path /me
.
The options
parameter maps directly to request's options.
The default request method is GET
. You can specify a specific but you can be changed
in the options
parameters (e.g. { method: 'POST' }
).
To send form data, you can use the options.form
parameter. The key data
is
assumed to be JSON and all other keys are assumed to be file paths.
Options:
path
{String}
is a relative resource path (e.g. "/apps"
).[options]
{Object}
is a request options object.[options.protocol]
{String}

{String}
optional server host. e.g. 'build.phonegap.com:'.[options.port]
