Ask Kodiak JS

Overview

Ask Kodiak JS is a dependency free implementation of the Ask Kodiak API for browser environments. API Keys are required to use, you can obtain those keys from Company Settings once you've created an account.

Installation

Ask Kodiak JS is available on npm as ask-kodiak-js.

$ npm install --save ask-kodiak-js

Basic Usage

To use Ask Kodiak JS, include the JavaScript file in your page, instantiate, and go.

Ask Kodiak JS supports using either Promises or callback functions (default).

Promises are not supported natively in any version of Internet Explorer, so if you choose to enable promises in your implementation and want to support IE, you'll need to implement a polyfill like https://github.com/taylorhakes/promise-polyfill.

Use Callbacks

<script src="ask-kodiak-js/dist/ask-kodiak-js-min.js"></script>
<script>
  var askKodiak= new AskKodiak('GROUP_ID', 'KEY'), //instantiate using your key and group id. get these from company settings in Ask Kodiak.
      callback = function (response) {
        console.log(response);
      };

  askKodiak.productsForCode('44-45', {}, callback); // get all products for the retail NAICS sector
  askKodiak.productsForCode('44-45', {'productCodes': 'BOP'}, callback); // get all products for the retail NAICS sector that are BOP
  askKodiak.productsForCode('44-45', {'entityTypes': 'AS+CCORP', 'productCodes': 'BOP'}, callback); // get all BOP products for the retail NAICS sector that accept Associations and C Corps as entity types
  askKodiak.trackEvent('test', {foo: 'bar'}, callback); // track an event called 'test' with one property, foo, that has a value of bar.

</script>

Or, Use Promises

<script src="ask-kodiak-js/dist/ask-kodiak-js-min.js"></script>
<script>
  var askKodiak = new AskKodiak('GROUP_ID', 'KEY', true); //instantiate using your key and group id. get these from company settings in Ask Kodiak. Third boolean parameter enables promises

  // get all BOP products for the retail NAICS sector
  askKodiak.productsForCode('44-45', {'productCodes': 'BOP'}).then(function (response) {
    // handle response here
  }).catch(function (error) {
    // handle error here
  });

</script>

API Key Security

Your API keys give read access to your content on Ask Kodiak. Be sure to keep them safe. If you consider the information your company has added to Ask Kodiak sensitive, be sure to keep these keys behind a login screen in your app.

Request Parameters

For any API request that supports optional request parameters, pass an options object to the method with those values. For example, if making a request where it's important to filter by geography and owner, you would pass the following options object to the method:

{
  'geos': 'US-MN+US-HI',
  'owners': 'ABC123'
}

Contributing

Please refer to the CONTRIBUTING page for more information about how you can contribute to this project. We welcome bug reports, feature requests, code review feedback, and also pull requests.

Supported Environments

Ask Kodiak JS supports all major modern browsers. If you choose to enable Ask Kodiak JS Promise support in your implementation and intend to support Internet Explorer, you'll need to implement a polyfill like https://github.com/taylorhakes/promise-polyfill.
