Methods

For readability error handling is not included in the following examples. See the Usage section above for an example with proper error handling.

utils.ping

( callback )

Simple API access test. The result data should be an object with only one property named message with the exact value Hello world!!.

bol.utils.ping ((err, data) => {
  if (data.message === 'Hello world!!') {
    console.log ('pong');
  } else {
    console.log ('ouch');
  }
});

bol.acocunt.sessions ((err, data) => {

The result data is modified to remove a few xml-style annoyances.

  for (let i in data.products) {
    let product = data.products[p];
