Example Usage

Require the library and set your api key.

 
    var dashku = require('dashku');
    dashku.setApiKey('YOUR_API_KEY', function(){
      
      // Fetches your dashboards
      dashku.getDashboards(function(response){
        if (response.status == "success") {
          console.log(response.dashboards);
        }
      });
      
    });
 

NOTE: If you're using Dashku open source edition, make sure to call setApiUrl in order to point the API wrapper to your hosted version of Dashku.

Available Commands

  • setApiKey
  • setApiUrl
  • getDashboards
  • getDashboard
  • createDashboard
  • updateDashboard
  • deleteDashboard
  • createWidget

setApiKey

Allows you to provide your api key to the library. This needs to be called before any API request can be made. To get your API key, checkout the API docs in Dashku.

The callback function is optional.

    dashku.setApiKey('YOUR_API_KEY', function(){
      // run your code here      
    });
    
    // or alternatively, you can call the command like this:
    dashku.setApiKey('YOUR_API_KEY');
 

setApiUrl

Allows you to define the api url to the library. This may come is useful if the API url changes, as it is currently pointing to Dashku.com's ip address.

The callback function is optional.

    dashku.setApiUrl('API_URL', function(){
