atriusmaps-node-sdk

To Install:

npm install atriusmaps-node-sdk

Or with yarn:

yarn add atriusmaps-node-sdk

Then within your code, import the map initializer via:

import Init from 'atriusmaps-node-sdk'

or use require

const Init = require("atriusmaps-node-sdk")

To Use

The Init object contains 3 methods:

• Init.setLogging(boolean logging) : To turn on/off the logging
• Init.getVersion() : Returns the current version of the library
• Init.newMap(Object configuration) : This is how your initialize a new map. This returns a Promise that resolves to your map.

The configuration object recognizes the following properties:

• accountId: This is the customer account against which you wish to display a map. Each account is associated with a list of 1 or more venues that it is authorized to display.
• venueId: The venue ID you wish the map to render.
• agent (optional): An instance of the http.agent to handle network fetches. See https://github.com/node-fetch/node-fetch#custom-agent for more information.
• proxy (optional): An object containing a host and port property to utilize a forwarding proxy for all network requests. (see example below)

At a minimum, a configuration would contain an accountId and a venueId:

const config = {
			venueId: '<venueId>',
			accountId: '<accountId>'
		}

An example of utilizing a proxy:

const config = {
			venueId: '<venueId>',
			accountId: '<accountId>',
			proxy: {
				host: 'example.com',
				port: 9108
			}
		}

You then initialize your map:

const map = await Init.newMap(config)

Your map function is ready to receive commands – of which the following are currently supported:

• help : Returns a string indicating all available commands and their arguments
• getDirections: Get time, distance and navigation steps from one point to another
• getPOIDetails: Get detailed information about a POI by ID
• getAllPOIs: Get a list of all POIs for the venue
• getStructures: Returns a list of structures (buildings) within the venue along with their properties
• getVenueData: Returns a complete venue object containing all venue details
• search: Performs a search against a term specified

For details on these commands, including their arguments, return value formats, and examples, see https://locusmapsjs.readme.io/docs/commands

Note that all these commands are asynchronous, and return a promise. So use them with await or a then clause.

Examples:

const poi = await map.getPOIDetails(11)
console.log(`Got POI details for ${poi.name}.`)

Or

map.getPOIDetails(11)
  .then(poi => console.log(`Got POI Details for ${poi.name}.`))

For example:

node main.js
