node-rest-client, but with promises
I found this question and answer on StackOverflow about promisifying the node-rest-client module:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30112657/how-to-use-bluebird-to-promisify-node-rest-client
However, it seems the original author didn't share a node module for this, so I did that. Additionally, I had to fix a few small things and document it.
This module provides a promisifed version of the node-rest-client.
This module provides this small function:
- client(options): Call
new Client(options)
, promisify and return it
The promisified client methods will have a "Promise" suffix:
var client = require('node-rest-client-promise').Client(options);
client.getPromise(url).catch(...).then(...)
Please note, that the resolved callback of the Promise will be called
with one argument to comply with Promise style. This argument will
be an object with the keys 'data' and 'response' reflecting the original
arguments of e.g. client.get()
.
For details about node-rest-client, please see the original documentation
Node Rest Client's method "registerMethod" is available as registerMethodPromise from Version 3.1.0 on.
