cms-api

node-cms-api

This module adds a convenient and promise-based wrapper for RPI's Club Management System API. A token is required for use, which can be obtained through CMS or by emailing the Rensselaer Union Systems Administrators.

Usage

var cms = require('cms-api')('[add your token here]');

It is highly recommended that you do not let your API key be publicly accessible. As such, the best option for storing your key would be in a separate file that is included on your project's .gitignore and is not available to the end user.

Then, where you want to call the API:

cms.getRCS('[rcs id here]').then(function (response) {
    console.log(response);
});

As of now, the current endpoints supported by this module are:

• getRCS(rcs_id) - this module takes a Rensselaer Computing System user id and returns user data
• getRIN(rin) - this module takes a Rensselaer Identification Number and returns user data
• getWTG(rcs_id) - this module takes a Rensselaer Computing System user id and returns whether or not the user is a member of the Web Technologies Group
• getRNE(rcs_id) - this module takes a Rensselaer Computing System user id and returns whether or not the user is a member of the Rules and Elections Committee
• getOrgs(rin) - this module takes a Rensselaer Identification Number and returns club objects where the user is an officer
• getAllOrgs(rin) - this module takes a Rensselaer Identification Number and returns club objects where the user is either a member or an officer
