node-helpers's Introduction

Node Helpers

This is a set of helpers for NodeJS. They're written for quick reuse rather than robust functions or efficiency. For instance, the database functions will create a new database connection every time. This is not efficient, but it makes making the function call simple.

My use is primarily in quicker one-off scripts that sometimes morph into something long-lasting...

Azure Storage

Get blob from Azure example, downloads bar.jpg from foo container to baz.jpg

const AzureStorage  = require('./src/azure.js')


let storageAccountName = 'devstoreaccount1'
let storageAccountKey = 'Eby8vdM02xNOcqFlqUwJPLlmEtlCDXJ1OUzFT50uSRZ6IFsuFq2UVErCz4I6tq/K1SZFPTOtr/KBHBeksoGMGw=='
let options = {cloudName: 'Azurite'}

let azure = new AzureStorage(storageAccountName,storageAccountKey,options)

let containerName = 'foo'
let blob = 'bar.jpg'
let file = 'baz.jpg'
await azure.downloadBlobToFile(containerName,blob,file)

node-helpers's Issues

createConfig overwrites existing files silently

The config.createConfig() command will silently overwrite an existing configuration file. This should check for an existing file and throw an error.

Additionally,

the JSON should be written with newlines, to make it easier for the user to edit the file.
the createConfig() should return something on success, maybe the filename created.
