Just Connect SDK for JavaScript

This is an SDK to talk to the Just Connect REST API from Node.js and web applications. It supports OAuth2 authorization with the Implicit, Authorization Code and Credentials grants.

Details on the API can be found here.

Prerequisites

To use this SDK, you need Node.js >= 0.12 or io.js. Node.js <= 0.10 is not compatible since it doesn't have some ES6-Features that the SDK uses.

Installing

Node.js

The preferred way to install the SDK is via the npm package manager. Type this into your terminal:

npm install just-sdk

Browser

For using the SDK in your web application, clone this repo, call npm install followed by grunt dist and copy the resulting file from the dist/ directory to your web server.

First Steps

The simplest way to try out this SDK is to fire it up in a Node.js application with the OAuth2 credentials grant, i.e. you authenticate with your username and password. Simply require the library, configure it with a domain, flow, username and password and then call its functions.

Here is a simple example:

var SDK = require('just-sdk');
var sdk = new SDK({
    domain: "just.loveyourintranet.com",
    oauth2: {
        flow: "credentials",
        username: "yourmail@example.org",
        password: "yourpassword",
        client_id: "your_client_id",
        client_secret: "your_client_secret"
    }
});
sdk.oauth2.token()
    .then(sdk.user.me.bind(sdk.user))
    .then(function(me) {
        console.log("You are using the API as " + me.name);
    })
    .catch(function(error) {
        console.log("There was an error fetching your profile information: " + error.message);
    });

Configuration

The SDK is configured by passing a config object to the constructor:

For the different OAuth2 grant types, the oauth2 object holds different values:

Implicit Grant Flow

Credentials Grant Flow (Username/Password)

Authorization Code Grant Flow
