Programmatic Usage

Login with username and password

This example creates a wall post in Hailer, and then removes it after five seconds, and exits.

Create a new nodejs project (npm init) or use an existing. Add hailer-cli as a dependency, using npm install https://bitbucket.org/hailer/hailer-cli.git

mkdir my-hailer-app
cd my-hailer-app
npm init
npm install https://bitbucket.org/hailer/hailer-cli.git

Create a new file run.js and paste the following code:

const { Cli } = require('hailer-cli');

const cli = new Cli('https://api.hailer.biz', username, password);

cli.on('ready', () => {
    cli.request('wall2.new_post', [{ subject: 'This is a wall post.', text: 'The content of my post' }], (err, data) => {
        if (err) { return console.log('Failed posting to wall', err, data); }

        console.log('wall2.new_post response:', data);

        setTimeout(() => {
            cli.request('wall2.remove_post', [data._id], (err, data) => {
                cli.disconnect();
            }); 
        }, 5000);
    })
});

cli.on('error', (err) => {
    console.log('Cli error:', err);
});

Set the username and password parameters to a valid Hailer account.

Log in to Hailer using the browser and go to the Feed to see the script in action.

Start the program:

node run.js

Have fun!

Login using existing Hailer session key

Re-using a Hailer sessionKey instead of logging in using username and password.

const { Cli } = require('hailer-cli');

const cli = new Cli('https://api.hailer.biz');

cli.once('connect', () => {
    cli.request('resume', [sessionKey], (err, data) => {
        cli.request('wall2.new_post', [{ subject: 'This is a wall post.', text: 'The content of my post' }], (err, data) => {
            if (err) { return console.log('Failed posting to wall', err, data); }

            console.log('wall2.new_post response:', data);

            setTimeout(() => {
                cli.request('wall2.remove_post', [data._id], (err, data) => {
                    cli.disconnect();
                }); 
            }, 5000);
        })
    })
});

cli.connect();

Set the sessionKey parameter which you have acquired by some other means.

Export process

Log in and run

networks()

to get a list of netowrks you have permission to. Then switch to the desired network unsing

core.switch_ecosystem('5579d000a9bbb6895dbcc74e')

Then list processes with the process convenience function (uses process.list)

processes()

Then export the process you wish by:

templateFromProcess('6779d000a9bbb6895dbcc777')

This can then be stored in a json file using:

fs.writeFileSync('./process.json', JSON.stringify(result, null, 2))
