This adapter extends the node-yelp module to Sails.js. (https://github.com/olalonde/node-yelp).
This isn't released as an npm module so you have to download YelpAdapter.js and place it in your api/adapters directory.
Add your yelp credentials to config/application.yml
development:
yelp:
consumer_key: "your_consumer_key"
consumer_secret: "your_consumer_secret"
token: "your_token"
token_secret: "your_token_secret"
Then require them in config/application.js
require('js-yaml');
global.NODE_ENV = process.env.ENV || 'development'
global.appConfig = require('./local.yml')[NODE_ENV]
Create a YelpBusiness model hooked up to the yelp adapter:
// api/models/YelpBusiness.js
module.exports = {
adapter: 'yelp'
};
Then you can use it:
YelpBusiness.business("yelp-san-francisco", function(error, data) {
console.log(error);
console.log(data);
});
YelpBusiness.search("Tacos", "San Francisco, CA", function(error, data) {
console.log(error);
console.log(data);
});
Waterline is a new kind of storage and retrieval engine for Sails.js. It provides a uniform API for accessing stuff from different kinds of databases, protocols, and 3rd party APIs. That means you write the same code to get users, whether they live in mySQL, LDAP, MongoDB, or Facebook.
