Paper API Client

Dec 13 2014

Don’t put URL string literals in your code. Use my latest “paper” module instead.

It turns this:

request({
    method: 'post',
    url: 'https://host.com/v1/items?api_key=ApiKey',
    json: {
        name: 'foo',
        description: 'bar'
    }
})
.on( 'response', function( res ) {
    console.log( JSON.parse( res.body ).id );
})
.on( 'error', function( err ) {
    console.error( err );
});

Into this:

apiClient.createItem({
    name: 'foo',
    description: 'bar'
}, itemCreated );

function itemCreated( err, data ) {
    if ( err ) {
        console.error( err );
        return;
    }

    console.log( data.id );
};

You can read more about how it works on the GitHub page: https://github.com/tybenz/paper-api-client.

As always, any feedback is appreciated. Give me a shoutout on Twitter.
