Wrapper to simplify communication to an LRS. Read more about the Experience API Spec here.
Check out the Reference Documentation Here
Javascript Experience API wrapper.
This javascript file can be included to web based xAPI clients to
simplify the process of connecting and communicating to an LRS. It
is enclosed in an ADL object like the
ADL xAPI Verbs project, allowing
a single object to contain both the ADL verbs and the ADL xapiwrapper.
This wrapper has two version identifiers within the code. One, xapiVersion
is the version of the Experience API Specification for which it was built,
and can be used to determine if the wrapper is compatible with an LRS implementing a specific
xAPI Specification version. The second is the build date in the header of the minified file,
which can be used to tell if you're using the latest version.
The wrapper relies on external dependencies to perform some actions. Make sure you include
our compilation of the necessary CryptoJS components
in your pages if you're not using xapiwrapper.min.js
.
<script type="text/javascript" src="./lib/cryptojs_v3.1.2.js"></script>
In the past we used the below libraries for the same purpose. You may continue to use them for current systems, but the CryptoJS compilation is recommended.
- base64.js - https://code.google.com/p/javascriptbase64/downloads/list
- 2.5.3-crypto-sha1.js - https://code.google.com/p/crypto-js/downloads/detail?name=2.5.3-crypto-sha1.js&can=4&q=
For IE/Edge support you
will need to include a TextEncoder
and TextDecoder
shim if you're not using xapiwrapper.min.js
<script type="text/javascript" src="./lib/utf8-text-encoding.js"></script>
Using this wrapper could either be done by downloading the latest release or cloning the project.
The minified wrapper is self-contained. It includes all required dependencies in addition to the ADL Verbs and the XAPIStatement module. For production sites, this version of the wrapper is recommended.
Download the latest release
Follow the instructions for including the wrapper in your source files.
You can optionally clone and use the dist/xapiwrapper.min.js
:
git clone https://github.com/adlnet/xAPIWrapper/
Compiling the minified version is easy. Install Node.js and NPM if you don't already have them (download them here) or
$ sudo apt-get install nodejs
$ sudo apt-get install npm
$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node
Then install the build system, Grunt. This may require root/admin privileges on your system.
$ cd xAPIWrapper
$ sudo npm install -g grunt
Install the xAPIWrapper dependencies:
$ sudo npm install
Then execute the build script:
$ grunt
This will overwrite dist/xapiwrapper.min.js
with the minifed versions of the wrapper and all its
dependencies.
Include the wrapper file, and optionally the dependencies.

Alternatively, use the minified version:
<script type="text/javascript" src="./dist/xapiwrapper.min.js"></script>
The wrapper at a minimum needs to know the url of the LRS, though most cases will also require the authorization information as well.
This wrapper provides two options for configuration. You may:
- Edit the configuration object (
Config
) in the xapiwrapper.js file
var Config = function()
{
var conf = {};
conf['endpoint'] = "http://localhost:8000/xapi/";
try
{
conf['auth'] = "Basic " + toBase64('tom:1234');
}
catch (e)
{
log("Exception in Config trying to encode auth: " + e);
}
// Statement defaults [optional configuration]
// conf["actor"] = {"mbox":"[email protected]"};
// conf["registration"] = ruuid();
// conf["grouping"] = {"id":"ctxact:default/grouping"};
// conf["activity_platform"] = "default platform";
// Behavior defaults
// conf["strictCallbacks"] = false; // Strict error-first callbacks
return conf
}();
- Create your own configuration object and pass it to the xapiwrapper object
var conf = {
"endpoint" : "https://lrs.adlnet.gov/xapi/",
"auth" : "Basic " + toBase64('tom:1234'),
};
ADL.XAPIWrapper.changeConfig(conf);
Optionally, auth credentials can be updated by user and password properties on the configuration object:
var conf = {
"endpoint" : "https://lrs.adlnet.gov/xapi/",
"user" : "tom",
"password" : "1234",
};
ADL.XAPIWrapper.changeConfig(conf);
or
var creds = {
"user" : "tom",
"password" : "1234",
};
ADL.XAPIWrapper.updateAuth(ADL.XAPIWrapper.lrs, creds.user, creds.password);
The script automatically runs, creating or adding to an ADL object an instantiated xAPI Wrapper object. The object is created using the configuration object inside the xapiwrapper.js file. If you modified this object with your configuration, then xAPI Wrapper object is ready to use.
ADL.XAPIWrapper.testConfig();
>> true
The configuration will also look for url query parameters and use those
name - value pairs in the XAPIWrapper's internal configuration. That means
that http://localhost:8000/content/example.html?actor={"mbox":"mailto:[email protected]"}
(not url encoded for illustrative purposes) would be parsed for an actor,
which would automatically be included in the wrapper configuration.
NOTE: endpoint, auth, actor, registration, activity_id, grouping, and activity_platform
are keywords that if found are used in send statement requests. See below for
usage examples.
The wrapper comes with a logging function (ADL.XAPIWrapper.log(message)
)
which attempts to write a message to console.log. This can be configured
to not write messages by setting log.debug = false;
.
The xAPI Wrapper supports ADL's xAPI Launch. This allows configuration - agent info, lrs endpoint info - to be sent to the wrapper, instead of using hard-coded configurations. See Using the xAPI-Launch library for more details.
If you are using the src files, include xapi-launch.js.
<script type="text/javascript" src="./lib/cryptojs_v3.1.2.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./lib/utf8-text-encoding.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./src/activitytypes.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./src/verbs.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./src/xapiwrapper.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./src/xapistatement.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./src/xapi-util.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./src/xapi-launch.js"></script>
Alternatively, use the minified xapiwrapper version, which includes xapi-launch:
<script type="text/javascript" src="./dist/xapiwrapper.min.js"></script>
To use, construct and ADL.launch object passing in a callback.
var wrapper;
ADL.launch(function(err, launchdata, xAPIWrapper) {
if (!err) {
wrapper = xAPIWrapper;
console.log("--- content launched via xAPI Launch ---\n", wrapper.lrs, "\n", launchdata);
} else {
wrapper = ADL.XAPIWrapper;
wrapper.changeConfig({
endpoint: "https://lrs.adlnet.gov/xapi/",
user: 'tom',
password: '1234'
});
console.log("--- content statically configured ---\n", wrapper.lrs);
}
$('#endpoint').text(wrapper.lrs.endpoint);
}, true);
new ADL.XAPIStatement(actor, verb, object)
new ADL.XAPIStatement.Agent(identifier, name)
new ADL.XAPIStatement.Group(identifier, members, name)
new ADL.XAPIStatement.Verb(id, description)
new ADL.XAPIStatement.Activity(id, name, description)
new ADL.XAPIStatement.StatementRef(uuid)
new ADL.XAPIStatement.SubStatement(actor, verb, object)
This sub-API makes it easier to author valid xAPI statements by adding constructors and encouraging best practices. All objects in this API are fully JSON-compatible, so anything expecting an xAPI statement can take an improved statement and vice versa.
In addition to the above forms, each constructor can instead take as an argument
another instance of the object or the equivalent plain object. So you can convert
a plain xAPI statement to an improved one by calling new XAPIStatement(plain_obj)
.
Passing in strings produces a default form: Agent Verb Activity.

Considering the behavior of xapiwrapper.js
:
XAPIWrapper.prototype.prepareStatement = function(stmt)
{
...........
if (this.lrs.grouping ||
this.lrs.registration ||
this.lrs.activity_platform) {
if (!stmt.context) {
stmt.context = {};
}
}
if (this.lrs.grouping) {
if (!stmt.context.contextActivities) {
stmt.context.contextActivities = {};
}
if (!Array.isArray(stmt.context.contextActivities.grouping)) {
stmt.context.contextActivities.grouping = [{ id : this.lrs.grouping }];
} else {
stmt.context.contextActivities.grouping.splice(0, 0, { id : this.lrs.grouping });
}
}
...........
}
Here we notice 2 behaviours:
-
In order to set
statement.context.contextActivities
you must setgrouping
. -
In order to be able to set the context property of a statement you have to set at least one of
grouping
,registration
oractivity_platform
during ADL configuration like so:
const configuration = {
'endpoint' : LRS.apiUrl,
'auth' : 'Basic ' + btoa(LRS.key + ':' + LRS.secret),
'registration': this.ADL.ruuid(),
'activity_platform': `${this.organizationId}_organizationId`
};
this.ADL.XAPIWrapper.changeConfig(configuration);
As you can see we set only registration
and activity_platform
.
Any of the name
or description
fields in the constructors can instead take a language map,
as defined in the xAPI specification.
var stmt = new ADL.XAPIStatement();
stmt.actor = new ADL.XAPIStatement.Agent('https://plus.google.com/113407910174370737235');

var stmt = ADL.XAPIStatement(myactor, ADL.verbs.launched, myactivity);
function sendStatement(statement, callback, [attachments])
Sends a single Statement to the LRS using a PUT request. This
method will automatically create the Statement ID. Providing a
function to call after the send Statement request will make
the request happen asynchronously, otherwise Send Statement
will block until it receives the response from the LRS.

The wrapper can construct a multipart/mixed
POST for a single statement that includes attachments. Attachments should be
supplied as an array in the 3rd parameter to sendStatement
. Attachments are optional. The attachments array should consist of
objects that have a type
and a value
field. Type
should be the metadata description of the attachment as described by the spec, and value
should be a string containing the data to post. The type field does not need to include the SHA2 or the length. These will be computed
for you. The type may optionally be the string 'signature'. In this case, the wrapper will construct the proper metadata block.
var attachment = {};
attachment.type = {
"usageType": "http://adlnet.gov/expapi/attachments/signature",
"display": {
"en-US": "A JWT signature"
},
"description": {
"en-US": "A signature proving the statement was not modified"
},
"contentType": "application/octet-stream"
};
attachment.value = "somehugestring";
ADL.XAPIWrapper.sendStatement(stmt,callback,[attachment]);
The wrapper looks for URL query string values to include in
its internal configuration. If certain keys
("endpoint","auth","actor","registration","activity_id", "grouping", "activity_platform")
are found, the values are included in a Statement.

is supplied. The response of the XHR request upon success will
contain a list of Statement IDs.
