Angular Drupal7 Services

Well structured angular modules mimic the architecture of Drupal Services 3.x

Bower version npm version
Package Quality

Angular Drupal7 Services is a REST client for AngularJS, which allows you to user predefined functions when communication with Drupal's api endpoints.
Unlike the other project focusing on the same topic, Angular Drupal7 Services is precisely organized around the Drupal Services 3.x architecture and naming conventions.

It optionally provides events next to the common used promise approach.

A full set of Drupal's resources is available, and all basic workflow's depending to authentication or helpers for CRUD operations are also provided as a set of extra modules.

DEMOS

Check out the Drupal-API-Explorer for a full demo
Or check out the sample implementation for Ionic-Headless-Drupal

Get Started

(1) Get Angular Drupal7 Services:

  • clone & build this repository
  • download as .zip
  • or via npm: by running $ npm install ng-drupal-7-services from your console
  • or via Bower: by running $ bower install ng-drupal-7-services from your console

(2) Include ng-drupal-7-services.js in your index.html.

(3) Add 'd7-services' to your main module's list of dependencies

API Documentation (!!!in progress!!!)

Quickstart

(1) Insert the ng-drupal-7-services.js bundle into your index.html file.

<!doctype html>
<html ng-app="myApp">
<head>

    <script src="bower_components/angular/angular.min.js"></script>
    <!-- ng-drupal-7-services and it's dependencies-->
    <script src="bower_components/angular-cookies/angular-cookies.min.js"></script>
    <script src="bower_components/ngstorage/ngStorage.js"></script>
    <script src="bower_components/ng-drupal-7-services/dist/ng-drupal-7-services.js"></script>

    <script>
        angular.module('myApp', ['d7-services'])
        .config(function configFunction(DrupalApiConstant) {
                		//configure your drupal instance
                		DrupalApiConstant.drupal_instance = 'http://your.projects.domain/';
                	});
    </script>
    ...
</head>
<body>
    ...
</body>
</html>

(2) Using the services.

angular
    angular.module('myApp')
    .controller('NodeController', ['NodeResource', 'NodeChannel', function(NodeResource, NodeChannel){

        //fire request
         var retrievePromis = NodeResource.retrieve({nid:1});

        //react over promise.then
        retrievePromis.then(function(data) { ... },function(error) { ... });

        //react over event
        //This could happen in another directive/controller too
        NodeChannel.subRetrieveConfirmed($scope, function(data){ ... });
        NodeChannel.subRetrieveFailed($scope, function(error){ ... });

    }]);

Configuration

Basically all configurable options are wrapped in an angular constant. So if you want to change the defaults constant values do so in angulars config phase.

  angular.module('myApp', ['d7-services'])
        .config(function configFunction(DrupalApiConstant) {
           ...
           //your changes here
           ...
        });

API configuration options

Define your drupal instance.

DrupalApiConstant.drupal_instance = 'http://your.projects.domain/';

Override the path to your api. This path is defined in "Edit Resource" under tab "Edit".

DrupalApiConstant.api_endpoint += 'v1/'; // results in "api/v1/";

Override the default response format. (json,jsonp,php,rss,xml,yaml,...) Find a list of profided fromats in "Edit Resource" under tab "Server".

DrupalApiConstant.responseFormat = "application/json";

Override the default public and private folders

DrupalApiConstant.publicFilePath = "new_public/";
DrupalApiConstant.privateFilePath = "new_private/";

Override the Drupals default path to files.

DrupalApiConstant.filesPath = "sites/default/my_files/";

Override the Drupals default image styles path.

DrupalApiConstant.imageStylesPath = "my_styles/";

Override the default image styles and add custom once.

DrupalApiConstant.imageStyles.large = 'modified_large';
DrupalApiConstant.imageStyles.new_style = 'new_style_name';

Override the default language.

DrupalApiConstant.LANGUAGE_NONE = 'und';
