This library wraps the Skytap API for use in Node.js applications. It is designed to work with node style callbacks as well as with Promises. This library is still under active development to build out the full feature set of API calls plus additional functions that are common to managing Skytap environments.
Install the module via NPM
npm install node-skytapYou can then include it as needed
var Skytap = require('node-skytap');You can obtain your API token
var params = {
username: 'skytap_username',
password: 'sktyap_password'
};
var token = Skytap.token(params, function(err, token) {
console.log(err || token);
})You should make calls using your token, though you can use the password if you so choose.
To obtain a new instance of the API Client, use the init static function and include your username and token.
var skytap = Skytap.init({
username: 'skytap_username',
token: 'skytap_token'
})You can then use this instance to make calls to the API. Calls support both node callbacks and Promises.
// Using Node callbacks
skytap.projects.list(function(err, projects) {
console.log(err || projects);
});
// Using Promises
skytap.projects.list()
.then(function(projects) {
console.log(projects);
})
.fail(function(err) {
console.log(err);
})###Initializing Skytap API Client
The Skytap.init method returns a new instance of the Skytap API Client based on the supplied connection information.
If you want to use different credentials per-request you can do so by creating a new instance of the client. For example, to list environments for different users, you can do the following:
// create an API client for user1
var user1 = Skytap.init({
username: 'skytap_user1',
token: 'skytap_user1_token'
});
// display environments for user1
user1.environments.list();
var user2 = Skytap.init({
username: 'skytap_user2',
token: 'skytap_user2_token'
});
// display environments for user2
user2.environments.list();You can make requests to Skytap API Version 2 by specifying the version: 'v2' options when initializing the client.
var skytap = Skytap.init({
username: 'my_username',
token: 'my_token',
version: 'v2'
});At the time of this change GET requests for many of the APIs are successful. POST/PUT/DELETE calls will result in an error. To use by V1 and V2 simulaneously, you will need to create multiple Skytap API Client instances and make your calls accordingly.
Refer to the source code for a full list of function calls and required parameters. Some of the functionality is listed below with examples of usage.

// Retrieve report results
skytap.usage.fetch({ report_id: 123456 }, next);####Additional Parameters Parameters to an API call that aren't recognized will be added to the query string. One use of this is to query an environment without changing its idle time:
environments.get({ configuration_id: 1234, keep_idle: true }
List methods support optional arguments that can be passed. For example, when using the v2 API calls to you can scope requests to the company and apply paging by doing the following:
environments.list({ scope: 'company', offset: 0, count: 100 }, next);
Formatting uses spaces instead of tabs and 2-space tabs.
Please use JSHint via the grunt task grunt validate.
Please add proper unit test coverage in accordance with existing test patterns (API methods do not yet have test coverage or parameter validation).
