Usage

Setup

Basic setup - no authentication (config optional)

import Smithers from 'smithers';

const smithers = new Smithers('https://jenkinsurl.com', config);

Username & password/token auth (config.auth required)

import Smithers from 'smithers';

const smithers = new Smithers('https://jenkinsurl.com', {
    auth: {
        username: 'username',
        password: 'password/token'
    }
});

Configuration

Configuration can be either passed when Smithers is instantiated or when a method is called. The configuration is forwarded to the axios calls so look at the axios documentation to see the different options.

• crumbIssuer Boolean default=false: Enables CSRF crumb support for post requests
• timeout Number default=5000: Request timeout in milliseconds
