parseRest.get('/classes/__className__').then((success) => {
  console.log(success);
}, (error) => {
  console.error(error);
});

Initialize

// es6
import ParseRest from 'parse-rest-nodejs';

// req is express request
const parseRest = new ParseRest(req);

// es5
var ParseRest = require('parse-rest-nodejs').default;

// req is express request
var parseRest = new ParseRest(req);

insert an object

parseRest.post('/classes/__className__', { ... })

insert a User

parseRest.post('/users', { ... })

insert with a Pointer

const user = { __type: 'Pointer', className: '_User', objectId }
parseRest.post('/classes/__className__', {..., user})

insert with GeoPoints

const location = { __type: 'GeoPoint', latitude, longitude };
parseRest.post('/classes/__className__', {..., location})

user login

parseRest.get('/login', { username, password }, { 'X-Parse-Revocable-Session': 1 })

me

• It need to 'sessionToken' value in request header.
• Alternatively, 'sessionToken' or 'user.sessionToken' value in request session is possible.

parseRest.get('/users/me')

insert a file

• Use the property 'fileData'.
• It is recommended to use multer.

// Express side
import express from 'express';
import multer from 'multer';

const app = express();
const upload = multer({ storage: multer.diskStorage({}) });
...
// file upload
app.post('/file/upload', upload.array('files'), function (req, res, next) {
  // console.log('upload complete / req.files :', req.files);
  return next();
});
...

// Action side
import fs from 'fs';

const _file = req.files[0];
const _fileInfo = { filename: _file.originalname, mimetype: _file.mimetype, size: _file.size, encoding: _file.encoding };
const fileData = { file: fs.createReadStream(_file.path), mimetype: _file.mimetype };

parseRest.post('/files/' + _file.filename, { fileData }).then((_fileResult) => {
  console.log('file result:', _fileResult);
  // Store where you need it
  parseRest.post('/classes/__className__', { ..._fileResult, ..._fileInfo })
});
