gopher-js

A JavaScript AJAX library with proxies

go.get('people').then(result => {
    
    // handle the result
    
}).catch(error => {
    
    // handle the error
    
})

Configuration

go.configure({
    onerror : handleError,
    onprogress : handleProgress,
    timeout : 10000,
    urlPrefix : '/rs'
});

Options

go.get('customers', {
    block : true,
    cache : false,
    content : 'json',
    headers : {
        'Accept-Encoding' : 'utf-8'
    },
    message : 'Getting customers...',
    silent : true,
    type : 'json'
})

Proxies

Gopher includes the ability to create proxies (much like RESTEasy)

let customerProxy = go.createProxy({
    path: '/customers',
    endpoints: {
        getAllCustomers: {},
        getCustomerWithId: {
            path: '/{id}',
            options: {
                cache: true
            }
        },
        saveCustomer: {
            method: 'post'
        }
    }
});

 
// call the proxy method 
 
customerProxy.getCustomerWithId({ id : 102 }).then (result => { /* ... */ });
 
// you can also call the method with just arguments
// they will be added sequentially, as specified in the path
 
customerProxy.getCustomerWithId(102).then(result => { /* ... */ });

Data Mappers

Data mappers provide serializers and deserializers for AJAX data. Mappers comprise of two methods: serialize and deserialize. Included are mappers for JSON, plain text, and XML.

let MyJSONMapper = {
    serialize: function(data) {
        return JSON.stringify(data);
    },
    deserialize: function(data) {
        return (data) ? JSON.parse(data) : null;
    }
};
 
// add the mapper to the registry
 
go.mappers.add('json', MyJSONMapper, [ 'application/json', 'text/json' ]);
