Allows your teams to make use of the Service Locator pattern to help with communication between Front-End a(UI Interactions) and Back-End (Web Services).
ServiceLocator
.addService(new Service("getUserInformation", "/api/user/{id}"))
.addService(new Service("addUser", "/api/user"))
ServiceLocator.getService("getUserInformation").invoke({ name: "jbueza"}, function(err, response) {
if (err) throw new Error("Unable to fetch data from get user service");
console.log(response);
});
- HTTP POST
- prefix with "add"
- invokes a service with HTTP POST without specifying it by configuration.
- HTTP GET
- prefix with "get"
- invokes a service with HTTP GET without specifying it by configuration.
Since this is just client side (browser-based) you can actually do more than just POST and GET, by specifying a 'method'.
ServiceLocator
.addService(new Service("updateUserProfile", "/api/user", { method: "put"}))
- It is still tied to jQuery or Zepto. Working towards perhaps detecting if you're on Windows8 (WinJS) so we can use the WinJS APIs instead of having jQuery/Zepto as a dependency.
- Running the test suite (jasmine bdd) requires phantomjs being installed! (install it, add it to your path)
- git clone [email protected]:jbueza/ServiceLocator.git
- npm install
- (ensure you have phantomjs installed)
- grunt (this will run all the tasks)
