Node-Active-Resource

Node-Active-Resource is an ORM (Object Relational Mapper) that maps RESTful Resources to Javascript Objects in NodeJS.

• Inspired by HER
• Access API resources without having to make HTTP requests on your own.

Node-Active-Resource allows you to define API resources on your front-end application and access them using ORM like features.

Setup

# vger.js
var options = {
  host: "api.yourdomain.com",
  port: 80
};

var nodeVger = require('node-active-resource')(options);

var resources = require("./resources")

# app.js
var vger = require('vger');

Simple isn't it.

Lets see how to define a Resource now

Sample Resource:

  var Resource = require('node-active-resource').Resource;
  var User = Resource.define_resource({
    collectionPath: "/users"
  })

Installation

# package.json
dependencies: {
  "node-active-resource": "git://github.com/prcongithub/node-active-resource.git"
}
