binder-client

Command line tool for managing Binder services: build, register, launch. Implements both a programmatic interface and a CLI interface for the protocol specification in binder-protocol.

Make it easy to mix and match use cases and environments: local or cloud deployment, building images or launching images directly, etc.

install

npm install binder-client -g

usage

This module can be imported as a module, or used directly from the CLI (and the usage is pretty much the same in both cases). Every method that's exposed by the client takes at least a host and a port as parameters, and authorized endpoints also require an API key.

as CLI utility

The client can communicate with any endpoint in the Binder API using the following format (see examples):

binder (build|registry|deploy) (command) [options] 

as an imported module

binder.(build|registry|deploy).(command)(options, function (err, result) {
  ...
})

CLI examples

Unauthorized commands don't require an API token

binder deploy deploy binder-project-example-requirements --host='deploy.mybinder.org' --port=8084'

Endpoints are specified as camel-case in binder-protocol, but they should be translated to kebab-case before use with the client:

binder registry fetch-all --host='build.mybinder.org' --port=8082 --api-token

If an endpoint has GET query parameters (i.e. binder registry fetch) they are specified as additional CLI arguments

binder registry fetch binder-project-example-requirements <deploy-id> --host='local' -api-token='blah'

imported module

Translating CLI commands into programmatic API commands is straightforward (CLI arguments just need to be inserted into an options object):

To start building an image/template for a repository:

var buildOpts = {
  host: '<build server host>',
  port: 8082,
  apiKey: <api key>,
  repository: '<repo name>'
}
binder.build.start(buildOpts, function (err, status) {
  ...
})

To query the status of a single build:

var buildOpts = {
  host: '<build server host>',
  port: 8082,
  apiKey: <api key>,
  repository: '<repo name>'
}
binder.build.status(buildOpts, function (err, status) {
  ...
})
