JS

A rapid scripting platform for developers.

WayScript allows you to run Python in the cloud, and seamlessly integrate with your favorite APIs.

Quick Start

If you use npm:

npm install wayscript

Or load directly from CDN:

<script src="https://cdn.wayscript.com/static/js/api/wayscript-legacy.0.1.2.js"></script>

Basic Usage

1. Add one or more HTTP Triggers to your script.

2. If you have a password-protected endpoint, obtain your API key or the credentials you would like to use.

3. If you have specified a custom endpoint, you will need to pass the name of that endpoint in your api call.

4. If your HTTP Trigger takes query parameters and/or JSON body parameters, you can pass those as a dictionary using the params and/or data arguments, respectively. (See HTTP Trigger Outputs for more information.)

5. Run your WayScript programs from your JavaScript code:

wayscript = require('wayscript-legacy')

// If your program requires a password to run, supply those credentials when creating the client
wayscript.username = 'Username';
wayscript.password = 'Pa$$word';

// If your program requires a password to run, you can instead supply your API Key when creating the client
wayscript.apiKey = 'YOUR_API_KEY';

// Run a program by id
let programId = 1234;
wayscript.run( programId );

// Pass query parameters to a program (optional)
let query_params = { 'var1': 'one', 'var2': 'two', 'var3': 'three' };
wayscript.run( programId, params = query_params );

// Run a specific endpoint within your script (optional)
let endpoint = 'MyEndpoint';
wayscript.run( programId, endpoint, params = query_params );

// Pass data within the body of your request (optional)
let body_params = { 'var4': 'four', 'var5': 'five', 'bar6': 'six' };
wayscript.run( programId, endpoint, params = query_params, data = body_params );

// Handle the response
let onSuccess = function( responseText ) {
  console.log( responseText );
};
let onError = function( responseText ) {
  console.log( responseText );
};
wayscript.run( programId ).onSuccess( onSuccess ).onError( onError );
