Node-OpenERP

The Node.js OpenERP library enables accessing any OpenERP server's XML-RPC API.

Install:

This library may be installed using npm:

npm install openerp

Usage:

api.createClient(options)

This method sets up a client for connecting to openerp-server's databases. Here's a minimal example for connecting :

var openerp = require('openerp');

var client = openerp.createClient({
  username: 'efbeka',
  password: 'foo',
  database: 'bar',
  host: 'https://openerp.foobar.com',
  port: '8069'
});

The options object contains 4 required properties:

• username: The username
• password: The password
• database: The database name
• host & port(optional, default to 80): The uri of the Openerp-server host.

client

Method calls are structured as resource and action.

client.resource.action("data", function (err, result) {
  if (err) {
    throw err;
  }

  // use the result

});

The client's methods are reflective of OpenERP's RPC availaible calls.

The full list will be implemented and available here progressively.

Tests

All tests are written with vows and should be run with npm:

  $ npm test
