qbws
This sample is a Node.js web service application that communicates with QuickBooks via QBWebConnector. The sample focuses primarily on demonstrating how to setup all web service web methods to run against QBWebConnector and does not focus on any particular use case. For simplicity, it sends three request XMLs: CustomerQuery, InvoiceQuery and BillQuery.
Status
This project replicates the functionality of the ASP.NET web service found in the QBSDK. Unfortunately that means some things are hard coded that should not be, and other things are left unimplemented. Eventually, qbws will diverge from that C# example to serve less of an SDK example and more as a reliable utility.
Usage
Install the package using npm install qbws
. The following code is all you need to run the service:
var qbws = require('qbws');
qbws.run();
Changelog

- Correct
authenticate()
andsendRequestXML()
(see [issue #3][3]) - Added a bunch of JSDoc style comments
v0.2.0
- Functional port of Intuit's WCWebService provided in the QBSDK samples
- Many things are hard coded for demonstration purposes:

Next Milestones
- v0.2.2: Include documentation for all functions (likely using JSDoc)
