Provide some promisified version (by bluebird) for some commonly used libs.
$ npm i bblib
For Standard libs:
const bfs = require('bblib/fs');
async function main() {
var exists = await bfs.exists('/path/to/file');
if (exists) {
// do something
}
}
main();
For npm packages: bblib provide only the promisify script, so that you don't need to install all the packages. in order to use promisified version of a npm package, you need to install it to your project manually. for example, if you'd like to use promisified request lib:
- install the request package by:
$ npm i request -S
- use the promisified version in your code:
const request = require('bblib/request');
async function main() {
var res = await request('https://www.google.com');
console.log(`status: ${res.statusCode}`);
console.log(`body : ${res.body}`);
}
main();
Some libs were designed base on EvenEmitter, which can not be promisified simply. Here is the list or some useful libs
Same as before, you need to install the original package first by
$ npm i $PKG -S
Wrap child_process
to execute shell command
Wrap ssh2
to provide ssh access
Homepage: https://github.com/mscdex/ssh2
const Client = require('bblib/ssh2');
async function main() {
var client = new Client({
host: 'example.com',
username: 'root',
password: '******'
});
var retryCount = 10;
try {
await client.connect(retryCount);
} catch (e) {
...
}
var files = await client.exec('ls');
var sftp = await client.sftp();
await sftp.writeFile('/path/to/files.log', files);
client.disconnect();
}
Wrap request to provide a general purpose RESTful client
var client = new RestClient({
suppress: true, // suppress rejection while response status is not ok
prefix: 'http://api.example.com', // api url prefix
beforeSend: async function(opts) { // modify request options before sending, like adding signature
opts.headers = {
signature: await sign(opt.form)
};
},
afterReceive: function(resp) { // reject with a custom error while status code is not 200
if (resp.status !== 200)
return P.reject(new MyOwnError('request error'));
}
})
// or:
var client = new RestClient({ suppress: true });
client.prefix = 'https://api.example.com';
client.beforeSend = function(options) { };
// then:
async function madin() {
var getQuery = { page: 2 };
var list = await client.get('/orders', getQuery);
if (list['error'])
throw new Error(list['message']);
console.log(list.body['data']);
var postJson = { name: 'John Doe', phone: '94823944', ... };
var postQuery = { overwrite: true };
var created = await client.post('/orders', postJson, postQuery);
if (created['error'])
throw new Error(created['message']);
console.log(created.body.data.id);
try {
client.suppress = false;
await client.get('/path/some/error');
} catch (e) {
console.log(e.response.body.message);
}
}
