Rest Service Integration

Allows to Integrate your server hitpoints to another server very easily.

Installation

npm install rest-service-integration

Usage

Server1

This is the main server. It will use Server2's API to send the data back to client

...
const RestIntegration = require("../");

const server2 = new RestIntegration.Service({
    host: SERVER2_HOST
})

app.get("/", async (req, res) => {
    res.send((await server2.hello()).data)
})


app.listen(SERVER1_PORT, async () => {
    await server2.load()
    console.log("Server1 Started...")
})

• Here when express app is ready it will load the API model from Server2 using POST /rest-service-integration-mode hitpoint.

• When it loads the data, hello Function will be avilable to server2 Instance.

Server2

This server is the one which will be loaded by Server1.

...

app.get("/hello", (req, res) => {
    res.send("Hello!");
})


app.post("/rest-service-integration-model", (req, res) => {
    const model = {
        "hello": {
            name: "hello",
            url: "/hello",
            method: ["GET"]
        }
    }

    res.json(model)
})

app.listen(SERVER2_PORT, () => {
    console.log("Server2 Started...")
})

• Here /rest-service-integration-model will be requested when you use await server2.load() in Server1.

• Service Instance will try to make a tree structure of the API model and attach those functions and Objects to the instance it self.

After using await server2.load()

• When you call it; instance will reach to POST /rest-service-integration-mode hitpoint and will try to load the API model.

• When it gets the model it will try to struct that model and attach the functino to instance.

• If model element has a key named "hello", it will name that function to "hello".

• If that model element has more then one method it will attach that function like this

server2.hello.get();
server2.hello.post();
