Available Functions

REST Clients

A number of REST Client classes are available to use and extend to create Clients for a given API.

Each of the REST Clients extends from the NoAuthRestClient, overriding the relevant methods. Exception is PlatformApiRestClient and PlatformApiLogicClient.

NoAuthRestClient

NoAuthRestClient class to make rest requests no no auth APIs by provided options.

constructor(emitter, cfg)

  • emitter - EIO emitting context.
  • cfg - configuration of EIO component object.
const Client = new NoAuthRestClient(emitter, cfg);

async makeRequest(options)

Makes requests: options expects the following sub-variables:

  • url: Url to call
  • method: HTTP verb to use
  • body: Body of the request, if applicable. Defaults to undefined.
  • headers: Any HTTP headers to add to the request. Defaults to {}
  • urlIsSegment: Whether to append to the base server url or if the provided URL is an absolute path. Defaults to true
  • isJson: If the request is in JSON format. Defaults to true

Class can be extended to have custom authentication

Example:

const { NoAuthRestClient } = require('@elastic.io/component-commons-library');

class MyClient extends NoAuthRestClient {
  constructor(emitter, cfg) {
    super(emitter, cfg);
    // Other variables go here
  }

  // Some methods can be overridden
  addAuthenticationToRequestOptions(requestOptions) {
    requestOptions.specialField = true;
  }


}

BasicAuthRestClient

BasicAuthRestClient class extends NoAuthRestClient class. Makes requests to resource with basic auth.

constructor(emitter, cfg)

  • cfg.username - mandatory cfg parameter contains username for authorization.
  • cfg.password - mandatory cfg parameter contains password for authorization.
const Client = new BasicAuthRestClient(emitter, cfg, user, pass);

ApiKeyRestClient

ApiKeyRestClient class extends NoAuthRestClient class. Makes requests to resource with api key (custom header) auth.

constructor(emitter, cfg)

  • cfg.apiKeyHeaderName - mandatory cfg parameter contains authorization header name.
  • cfg.apiKeyHeaderValue - mandatory cfg parameter contains authorization header value.
const Client = new BasicAuthRestClient(emitter, cfg, user, pass);

CookieRestClient

CookieRestClient class extends NoAuthRestClient class.

TBD

OAuth2AuthorizationCodeRestClient

OAuth2RestClient class extends NoAuthRestClient class. Makes requests to resource with oauth2 access token auth.

constructor(emitter, cfg)

  • cfg.oauth2 - mandatory cfg parameter contains oauth2 ids, config and tokens.
const Client = new OAuth2AuthorizationCodeRestClient(emitter, cfg);

This class can handle, refresh and emit oauth2 EIO configuration.

FacelessRestClient

FacelessRestClient Makes requests to resource with oauth2 access token auth using ElasticIO Faceless Service.

constructor(emitter, cfg, userAgent, msgId)

  • cfg - should contain secretId parameter or oauth object with oauth2 config and tokens.
  • userAgent - optional parameter, used for User-Agent header when client retrieve secret from platform
  • msgId - optional parameter, used for x-request-id header when client retrieve secret from platform
const Client = new FacelessRestClient(emitter, cfg, userAgent, msgId);

NtlmRestClient

NtlmRestClient class extends NoAuthRestClient class. Makes requests to resource with NTLM authentication. Falls back to basic authentication if NTLM authentication fails. Handles both V1 and V2 of the NTLM Protocol.

constructor(emitter, cfg)

  • cfg.username - mandatory cfg parameter contains username for authorization. Domain information should be combined with this field. (e.g. SOMEDOMAIN\SomeUser)
  • cfg.password - mandatory cfg parameter contains password for authorization.
const Client = new NtlmRestClient(emitter, cfg);

Platform API Clients

A number of Platform API Client classes are available to use and extend them to create Clients for Platform API.

PlatformApiRestClient

PlatformApiRestClient class extends BasicAuthRestClient class. The method inside this class checks for the status code 200, if not, then throws an error. And also checks that the response came with the correct data in the JSON format and the other expected response headers.

constructor(emitter, cfg)

  • emitter - EIO emitting context.
  • cfg - configuration of EIO component object.
const Client = new PlatformApiRestClient(emitter, cfg);

PlatformApiLogicClient

PlatformApiLogicClient class extends PlatformApiRestClient class. Contains useful methods to manipulate flow's state to set it either to active running or to inactive stopped, searching flows, workspaces, credentials and more.

constructor(emitter, cfg)

  • emitter - EIO emitting context.
  • cfg - configuration of EIO component object.
const Client = new PlatformApiLogicClient(emitter, cfg);

  • changeFlowState(options) - Given a flow, change the flow to a given state (running, stopped, etc)
  • startFlow(flowId, options) - sets the flow to active running state
  • stopFlow(flowId, options) - sets the flow to inactive stopped state
  • hydrateFlow(options) - Hydrates the flow using removeNonWritableProperties method, but additionally enriches the flow with all data samples, credential names, command and component Id fields.

JSON Schema Converter

Contains tools for JSON metadata generation

  • convertJsonSchemaToEioSchema(keyToReturn, completeSchemaOriginal) - converts general JSON schema to platform-friendly JSON metadata
  • makeSchemaInline(json, availableSchemas) - replaces $ref recursively with full object description for provided json object using availableSchemas schemas map.

JSON Transformation

Contains functions to transform platform data that contains JSONata expressions

  • jsonataTransform(msg, cfg) - returns the msg.body with the JSONata expressions evaluated to values

Attachment Processor

The attachment processor function can be used to store attachments on the platform. It exposes the following functions

  • uploadAttachment(getAttachment, retryOptions, contentType), which will upload an attachment to the platform Maester storage and return the result object. Where:
    getAttachment - async function which returns stream
    retryOptions - (optional): parameters for retrying of upload attachment, if request failed. Parameters are retriesCount and requestTimeout(ms) contentType - (optional): Content-Type of attachment. By default Content-Type will be calculated automatically.
  • getAttachment(url, contentType), which will retrieve an attachment from steward or maester storage. To specify the storage - query parameter storage_type must be provided. To get items from maester storage - ?storage_type=maester should added to the url argument. By default attachments are retrieved from steward storage, so ?storage_type=steward is not obligated to be added to the url argument. contentType - one of [stream, arraybuffer ]

Example:

const { AttachmentProcessor } = require('@elastic.io/component-commons-library');

const getAttachAsStream = async () => (
  await axios.get('http://sample.pdf', { responseType: 'stream' })
).data;
const result = await new AttachmentProcessor().uploadAttachment(getAttachAsStream, 'application/pdf');

const { objectId } = result.data;
const { AttachmentProcessor } = require('@elastic.io/component-commons-library');

const result = await new AttachmentProcessor().getAttachment('http://example.com', 'stream'); // steward storage
const result = await new AttachmentProcessor().getAttachment('http://example.com?storage_type=steward', 'arraybuffer'); // steward storage
const result = await new AttachmentProcessor().getAttachment('http://example.com?storage_type=maester', 'stream'); // maester storage

External API

Environment variables

  • API_RETRIES_COUNT (defaults to 3): maximum amount of retries for 5xx errors. If server still responding 5xx, error will be thrown.
  • API_REQUEST_TIMEOUT (defaults to 15000, min: 500, max: 120000): specifies the number of milliseconds before the request times out. If the request takes longer than timeout, the request will be aborted.
  • axiosReqWithRetryOnServerError (use with .call() to pass context, implement it as a method of class with logger and cfg (value of configuration object for current action) values in a constructor) - function which makes axios request by specified request-config, making logging and error handling:
    1. If 5xx error occurred, it will be retried maximum API_RETRIES_COUNT times, each retry will be delayed with exponentialSleep function.
    2. If 4xx error occurred - error will be thrown.
    3. If action cfg has doNotThrow404 set to true: 404 error won't be treated as error.
      Look on examples below.
  • getErrMsg - forms error message from axios-response.
  • getRetryOptions - return valid values for envs API_RETRIES_COUNT and API_REQUEST_TIMEOUT. If values are higher or lower the limit - they'll be overwritten by default values.
  • sleep - return promise which resolves after N time.
  • exponentialDelay - returns number of milliseconds depending to current retry. See exponential backoff to explanation.
  • exponentialSleep - return promise which resolves after N time. Where N is number of milliseconds from exponentialDelay execution.

Example for axiosReqWithRetryOnServerError function:

class Client {
  private logger: any;

  private cfg: any;

  constructor(emitter, cfg) {
    this.logger = emitter.logger;
    this.cfg = cfg;
  }

   public async apiRequest(options: AxiosRequestConfig): Promise<any> {
    try {
      const response = await axiosReq.axiosReqWithRetryOnServerError(this, requestOptions);
      return response.data;
    } catch (error) {
      if (error.response?.status === 401) {
       // update token
      }
      throw error;
    }
  }

  public async getUserById(id) {
    return this.apiRequest({
      url: `/users/${id}`,
      method: 'GET',
    });
  }
}

Logger

The built in logger uses Bunyan Logger as its base implementation. The available logger methods can be found here.

Example:

const { Logger } = require('@elastic.io/component-commons-library');

const logger = Logger.getLogger();
logger.info('Hello, world');

The getLogger() method takes an optional parameter loggerName that lets you declare multiple different loggers.
