IronWorker Node Client

Getting Started

Install:

npm installation not supported yet

You can get your token and project_id at http://www.iron.io .

The reference IronWorker's REST/HTTP API is here: http://dev.iron.io/worker/reference/api/

IronWorker

List your account's projects:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.listProjects(function callBack(err, projects) {
		projects.forEach(function (project)
        {
        	console.log(project.id());
    	}	
    });

Note: the projects returned in the callback are objects on which you can make API calls

List tasks in a project:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.listTasks(function callBack(err, tasks) {
		tasks.forEach(function (task)
    	{
        	console.log(task.id());
    	}	
    });

Note: the tasks returned in the callback are objects on which you can make API calls

List scheduled tasks in a project:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.listScheduledTasks(function callBack(err, scheduledTasks) {
		tasks.forEach(function (scheduledTask)
    	{
        	console.log(scheduledTask.id());
    	}	
    });

Note: the scheduled tasks returned in the callback are objects on which you can make API calls

List code packages in a project:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.listCodePackages(function callBack(err, codePackages) {
		tasks.forEach(function (codePackage)
    	{
        	console.log(codePackage.id());
    	}	
    });

Note: the code packages returned in the callback are objects on which you can make API calls

Queue a task:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.queueTask('code_name', 'payload', priority, timeout, delay, function (err,obj) 
	{
		assertTrue(obj.msg == "Queued up");
	});

Queue a task using the webhook:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.hookTask('code_name', 'payload', function (err,obj) 
	{
		assertTrue(obj.msg == "Queued up");
	});

Schedule a task:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.scheduleTask('code_name', 'payload', properties, function (err,obj) 
	{
		assertTrue(obj.msg == "Scheduled");
	});

Get info about a task:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.tasks('task_id')
	.info(function (err,obj) 
	{
		console.log(obj.id);
		console.log(obj.project_id);
		console.log(obj.code_id);
		console.log(obj.code_history_id);
		console.log(obj.status);
		console.log(obj.code_name);
		console.log(obj.code_rev);
		console.log(obj.start_time);
		console.log(obj.end_time);
		console.log(obj.duration);
		console.log(obj.timeout);
	});

Get info about a scheduled task:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.scheduledTasks('task_id')
	.info(function (err,obj) 
	{
		console.dir(obj); // I am tired and don't feel like writing out all the properties :)
	});

Get info about a code package:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.codePackages('code_id')
	.info(function (err,obj) 
	{
		console.dir(obj);
	});

Get a task's log:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.tasks('task_id')
	.log(function (err,obj) 
	{
		console.log(obj); // Content-Type is “text/plain”
	});

Cancel a task:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.tasks('task_id')
	.cancel(function (err,obj) 
	{
		assertTrue(obj.msg == "Cancelled");
	});

Cancel a scheduled task:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.scheduledTasks('task_id')
	.cancel(function (err,obj) 
	{
		assertTrue(obj.msg == "Cancelled");
	});

Set Progress on a task:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.tasks('task_id')
	.progress(percent,'msg',function (err,obj) 
	{
		assertTrue(obj.msg == "Progress Set");
	});

Delete a code package:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.codePackages('code_id')
	.delete(function (err,obj) 
	{
		assertTrue(obj.msg == "Deleted");
	});    

Download a code package:

var ironWorker = require('ironmq').IronWorker;
ironWorker('token')
	.projects('project_id')
	.codePackages('code_id')
	.download(function (err,obj) 
	{
		fs.writeFile("myFile.zip",obj); // I think, haven't tried it yet.
	});

IronCache

List your project's caches:

var ironCache = require('ironmq').IronCache;
ironCache('token')
  .projects('project_id')
	.listCaches(function callBack(err, caches) {
		caches.forEach(function (cache)
        {
        	console.log(cache.id());
    	}
    });

Note: the caches returned in the callback are objects on which you can make API calls

Add an item to a cache:

var ironCache = require('ironmq').IronCache;
ironCache('token')
  .projects('project_id')
  .caches('cache_name')
  .put(key,val,expires_in,replace,add,function callBack(err, obj) {
    assertTrue(obj.msg == "Stored.");
  });

Get an item from a cache:

var ironCache = require('ironmq').IronCache;
ironCache('token')
  .projects('project_id')
  .caches('cache_name')
  .get(key,function callBack(err, obj) {
    console.log("cur val: " + obj.value);
  });

Increment an item's value:

var ironCache = require('ironmq').IronCache;
ironCache('token')
  .projects('project_id')
  .caches('cache_name')
  .inc(key,amount,function callBack(err, obj) {
    assertTrue(obj.msg == "Added");
    console.log("new val: " + obj.value);
  });

Delete an item from a cache:

var ironCache = require('ironmq').IronCache;
ironCache('token')
  .projects('project_id')
  .caches('cache_name')
  .del(key,function callBack(err, obj) {
    assertTrue(obj.msg == "Deleted");
  });

IronMQ

Put a message on a queue:

var ironmq = require('ironmq')
ironmq('token')
  .projects('project_id')
  .queues('my_queue')
  .put('hello world'
      , function callBack(err, obj) {
          obj.ids // array of ids posted
      })

Get a message from a queue:

var ironmq = require('ironmq')
ironmq('token')
  .projects('project_id')
  .queues('my_queue')
  .get(function callBack(err, msgs) {
          msgs    //array of msgs gotten
          var msg = msgs.pop()
          msg.id      // id of message
          msg.body    // message data
          msg.timeout // time until msg returns to queue
          msg.del     // function to delete this message
      })

When you pop/get a message from the queue, it will NOT be deleted. It will eventually go back onto the queue after a timeout if you don't delete it (default timeout is 10 minutes).

Delete a message from a queue:

var ironmq = require('ironmq')
ironmq('token')
  .projects('project_id')
  .queues('my_queue')
  .del('message_id'
      , function callBack(err, obj) {
          obj.msg === 'Deleted'
      })

Delete a message from the queue when you're done with it.

Project Selection

// list projects
var ironmq = require('ironmq')
ironmq('token').list(function(err, obj) {
  obj  // array of project objects
})

var client  = ironmq('token')
var project = client('project_id')

var project = ironmq('token').projects('project_id')

var project = ironmq('token')('project_id')

Queue Selection

Similar to project selection, any of the following:

1. project.list(function(err, obj){} to get an array of queues
2. var queue = project.queues('my_queue')
3. var queue = project('mq_queue')

Queue Information

queue.info(function(err, obj) {
  obj.size    // number of msg's in this queue
  obj.time    // new Date when this size was gotten
  obj.get     // get messages from this queue
  obj.put     // put messages on this queue
  obj.del     // delete messages from this queue
  obj.info    // update the size property for this queue
})

project.queues('my_queue', function(err, queue) {})

project('my_queue', function(err, queue) {})
