Usage

The default options for the constructor are

const fb = new Fishbowl({
    host: '127.0.0.1',
    port: 28192,
    IAID: 54321,
    IAName: 'Fishbowljs',
    IADescription: 'Fishbowljs helper',
    username: 'admin',
    password: 'admin',
    useLogger: true
  });

You may pass a callback function to the constructor to know if it connected properly

const fb = new Fishbowl({}, (err, res) => {
  if (err) {
    console.log(err);
    return;
  }
});

To use async await use the sendRequestPromise({ req, options, json }) function

const executeQuery = async () => {
  try {
    const part = await fb.sendRequestPromise({ req: 'ExecuteQueryRq', options: { query: 'select * from part where num = "B201"' } });
    const product = await fb.sendRequestPromise({ req: 'ExecuteQueryRq', options: { query: 'select * from product where num = "B202"' } });
    console.log(`Part: ${part}`);
    console.log(`Product: ${product}`);
  } catch (err) {
    console.log(`Err: ${err.code} - ${err.message}`);
  }
}

executeQuery();

All requests by default will send back the data in JSON format.

fb.sendRequest({ req: 'ExecuteQueryRq', options: { query: "select * from part where num='B201'" } }, (err, res) => {
  if (err) {
    console.log(`Err: ${err.code} - ${err.message}`);
    return;
  }

  console.log(`Data: ${res}`);
});

If the request allows it and you desire it, the request could send the data back in CSV format. Notice the json flag as the third attribute in the RequestOptions.

fb.sendRequest({ req: 'ExecuteQueryRq', options: { query: "select * from part where num='B201'" }, json: false }, (err, res) => {
 if (err) {
   console.log(`Err: ${err.code} - ${err.message}`);
   return;
 }

 console.log(`Data: ${res}`);
});

All valid API requests are accepted, not only the requests documented on the Fishbowl API wiki

fb.sendRequest({req: 'PartGetRq', options: { Number: 'B201', GetImage: false } }, (err, res) => {
 if (err) {
   console.log(`Err: ${err.code} - ${err.message}`);
   return;
 }

 console.log(`Data: ${res}`);
});

const Fishbowl = require('fishbowl-js');

const fb = new Fishbowl({}, (err, res) => {
  if (err) {
    console.log(err);
    return;
  }
});

// If you have already approved this integration, this will be seamless.
// If you have not approved the integration, you will need to approve it and then send the login request again.
fb.sendRequest({ req: 'LoginRq' });
