reportportal-client

ReportPortal js client

This Client is to communicate with the Report Portal on node js.

Library is used only for implementors of custom listeners for ReportPortal.

Allready implemented listeners:

• EMPTY

Installation

The latest version is available on npm:

npm install reportportal-client

Example

let RPClient = require('reportportal-client');

let rpClient = new RPClient({
    token: "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000",
    endpoint: "http://your-instance.com:8080/api/v1",
    launch: "LAUNCH_NAME",
    project: "PROJECT_NAME"
});

rpClient.checkConnect().then((responce) => {
    console.log('You have successfully connected to the server.');
    console.log(`You are using an account: ${responce.full_name}`);
}, (error) => {
    console.log('Error connection to server');
    console.dir(error);
});

Settings

When creating a client instance, you need to specify the following parameters:

Parameter	Description
token	user's token Report Portal from which you want to send requests. It can be found on the profile page of this user.
endpoint	URL of your server. For example, if you visit the page at 'https://server:8080/ui', then endpoint will be equal to 'https://server:8080/api/v1'.
launch	Name of launch at creation.
project	The name of the project in which the launches will be created.

Api

Each method (except checkConnect) returns an object in a specific format:

{
    tempId: '4ds43fs', // generated by the client id for further work with the created item
    promise: Promise // An object indicating the completion of an operation
}

The client works synchronously, so it is not necessary to wait for the end of the previous requests to send following ones.

checkConnect

checkConnect - asynchronous method for verifying the correctness of the client connection

rpClient.checkConnect().then((responce) => {
    console.log('You have successfully connected to the server.');
    console.log(`You are using an account: ${responce.full_name}`);
}, (error) => {
    console.log('Error connection to server');
    console.dir(error);
});

startLaunch

startLaunch - starts a new launch, return temp id that you want to use for all of the items within this launch.

let launchObj = rpClient.startLaunch({
    name: "Client test",
    start_time: rpClient.helpers.now(),
    description: "description of the launch",
    tags: ["tag1", "tag2"],
    //this param used only when you need client to send data into the existing launch
    id: 'id'
});
console.log(launchObj.tempId);

The method takes one argument:

• launch data object:

Parameter	Description
start_time	(optional) start time launch(unix time). Default: rpClient.helpers.now()
name	(optional) launch name. Default: parameter 'launch' specified when creating the client instance
mode	(optional) "DEFAULT" or "DEBUG". Default: "DEFAULT"
description	(optional) description of the launch (supports markdown syntax)
tags	(optional) array of launch tags
id	id of the existing launch in which tests data would be sent, without this param new launch instance would be created

To know the real launch id wait for the method to finish (the real id is not used by the client)

let launchObj = rpClient.startLaunch();
launchObj.promise.then((responce) => {
    console.log(`Launch real id: ${responce.id}`);
}, (error) => {
    console.dir(`Error at the start of launch: ${error}`);
})

finishLaunch

finishLaunch - finish of the launch. After calling this method, you can not add items to the launch. The request to finish the launch will be sent only after all items within it have finished.

// launchObj - object returned by method 'startLaunch'
let launchFinishObj = rpClient.finishLaunch(launchObj.tempId, {
    end_time: rpClient.helpers.now()
});

The method takes two arguments:

• id launch (returned by method 'startLaunch')

Parameter	Description
end_time	(optional) end time of launch. Default: rpClient.helpers.now()

getPromiseFinishAllItems

getPromiseFinishAllItems - returns promise that contains status about all data has been sent to the Report Protal. This method needed when test frameworks don't wait for async methods and stop processed.

// jasmine example. tempLaunchId - id of the client's process
agent.getAllClientPromises(agent.tempLaunchId).then(()=> done());

Parameter	Description
tempLaunchId	id of the client's process

updateLaunch

updateLaunch - updates launch data. Will send a request to the server only after finishing the launch.

// launchObj - object returned by method 'startLaunch'
rpClient.updateLaunch(
    launchObj.tempId, {
