Box AppAuth SDK

https://box-content.readme.io/v2.0/docs/app-auth

Usage

You will need to create a Box account and proper public/private keys, and register them with Box.

Then:

var appAuth = require('box-appauth');

appAuth({
    publicKey : Your public key,
    privateKey : Your private key,
    algorithm : one of ['RS256','RS384','RS512'], Default 'RS256'
    issuer : The same as #clientId,
    subject : An app id(#user) or enterprise id(#enterprise),
    subjectType : 'user' or 'enterprise',
    clientId : Your client id,
    clientSecret : Your client Secret,
    publicKeyId: The id of your public key,
    callRetryMax: The number of call retries before giving up,
    minutesUntilTokenRefresh: Lifespan of a token in minutes. Must be >= 5 & <=50
})
.then(function(api) {

    ...do something with the Promise based api

    api.folders
    .methodA({...})
    .then(function(resultOfMethodA) {
       return api.folder.methodB()
    })
    .then(function(resultOfMethodB) {
        // etc across as many calls as you'd like, all
        // executed "sequentially".
    })
    .catch(function(err) {
        ...
    })

})
.catch(function(err) {
    console.log("** Unable to authenticate **", err);
});

Tests

You will need to create a .credentials.js folder in the root of the application using this module.

This file should look something like this:

"use strict";

var fs = require('fs');
var path = require('path');

module.exports = {
    publicKey : fs.readFileSync(path.resolve('./rsa/public_key.pem')),
    privateKey : fs.readFileSync(path.resolve('./rsa/private_key.pem')),
    algorithm : 'RS256',
    issuer : '<same as #clientId>',
    subject : '<an app id(#user) or enterprise id(#enterprise)>',
    subjectType : '<user or enterprise>',
    clientId : '<your client id>',
    clientSecret : '<your client Secret>',
    publicKeyId: '<the id of your public key>
};

To run all tests:

node test

or

npm test

To run individual, or a few individual, tests look in the test/spec folder and use the file names:

node test folders
node test folders folder_graph
