A stripped-down, Restangular-inspired REST library using the Fetch specification.
This was created because I wanted something similar to the excellent Restangular outside AngularJS.
Only supports JSON objects for now.
This is still very much work in progress.
<script src="restaurang.js"></script>
Restaurang uses the standard Fetch specification for requests, so you'll probably want the fetch polyfill.
IE users will need the es6-promise polyfill.
// Let's start by setting the base url
Restaurang.setUrl("/api/v1");
// Fetch one post
Restaurang.one("posts", "1").get().then(function(post) { // GET /api/v1/posts/1
post.name = "Lorem ipsum...";
console.log(post.name);
post.put(); // PUT /api/v1/posts/1
// Let's fetch the comments for this post
post.all("comments").getList().then(function(comments) { // GET /api/v1/posts/1/comments, expects an array
console.log(comments[0].id); // 1
});
});
// Fetch a comment without first fetching the post
Restaurang.one("posts", "1").one("comments", "1").get(); // GET /api/v1/posts/1/comments/1
// Create a new post
Restaurang.all("posts").post({ // POST /api/v1/posts
name: "Foo",
body: "Bar"
}).then(function(post) {
console.log(post.name);
});Each Restaurang object has the following object methods (including Restaurang itself). Restaurang elements and collections also have some specific methods.
- one(route, id) - creates an object with the endpoint /route/id
- all(route) - creates a collection with the endpoint /route
- setUrl(url) - sets the base url
- setDefaultHeaders(headers) - set default headers included in each request
- get([queryParams, headers]) - GET element
- getList(element, [queryParams, headers]) - GET collection
- put([queryParams, headers]) - performs PUT on an element
- post(element, data, [queryParams, headers]) - performs POST to element with data payload
- remove([queryParams, headers]) - performs DELETE on an element
- get(id,[queryParams, headers]) - GET element with id from collection
- getList([queryParams, headers]) - GET collection
- post(data, [queryParams, headers]) - POST data to collection endpoint
If you need a custom fetch function for checking/renewing tokens or just want to be fancy, you can replace Restaurang.fetch with a Fetch specification compatible function.
- Custom requests
- Add to npm and bower
- HEAD, TRACE, jsonp
- Tests
