51Degrees Node Pipeline

Developer Documentation

Introduction

This repository contains the components of the Node.JS implementation of the 51Degrees Pipeline API.

The Pipeline is a generic web request intelligence and data processing solution with the ability to add a range of 51Degrees and/or custom plug ins (Engines)

Dependencies

The tested versions page shows the Node versions that we currently test against. The software may run fine against other versions, but additional caution should be applied.

Contents

This repository contains 4 modules:

Installation

The modules in this repository are available on the node package manager:

npm install fiftyone.pipeline.core
npm install fiftyone.pipeline.engines
npm install fiftyone.pipeline.engines.fiftyone
npm install fiftyone.pipeline.cloudrequestengine

They can also be installed from this repository by running:

npm install <path to module>

Examples

There are several examples available that demonstrate how to make use of the Pipeline API in isolation. These are described in the table below. If you want examples that demonstrate how to use 51Degrees products such as device detection, then these are available in the corresponding repository and on our website.

Core

Example Description
simpleEvidenceFlowElement.js Demonstrates how to create a custom flow element that takes some evidence (birthdate) and returns something related to that evidence (star sign).
clientSideEvidenceFlowElement.js Demonstrates how to modify the flow element from the 'simple evidence' example to gather evidence from code running on the client device (i.e. JavaScript).

Engines

Example Description
onPremiseFlowElement.js Demonstrates the creation of an engine that uses an auto-updating datafile to populate properties.
caching.js Demonstrates a custom cache that makes use of the result caching feature that engines provide.

Tests

Most modules include some automated tests. To run these, make sure jest is installed:

npm install jest --global

Then, navigate to the module directory and execute:

npm test
