This module includes a set of fluent APIs for interfacing with Maximo Asset Management by providing a high-level abstraction for the Maximo REST API's. The intent is to shield developers from low-level details and help them focus on their own implementation logic.
Install the ibm-maximo-api package by using the following command:
$ npm install --save ibm-maximo-api
There are three main components ....
Like any other Node.js module, you can load the Maximo module and assign a local reference to your code by using the built-in require() function. For example, the following require() function returns a prototype (class) and assigns it to the local Maximo variable.
var Maximo = require('ibm-maximo-api');
After you assign a local reference by using the require() function, you can instantiate an object. For example:
var maximo = new Maximo(options,[authcookie]);
The constructor accepts two parameters:
options: This parameter is REQUIRED and is represented by an object like this:
{
protocol: 'http',
hostname: 'qawin03.swg.usma.ibm.com',
port: '9080',
user: 'wilson',
password: 'wilson',
auth_scheme: '/maximo',
authtype:'maxauth',
islean:1
}
authcookie: This parameter is OPTIONAL.
If this parameter is null the Create, Read, Update and Delete (CRUD) api's will attempt to
authenticate with Maximo everytime a CRUD operation is invoked.
If Create, Read, Update and Delete (CRUD) APIs are invoked multiple times, you should authenticate first by using the authenticate() function. If
authentication is successful, a token(jsessionID) is returned. Save the token in the request session so that the token can be
read and passed into the constructor for subsequent requests. The following code snippet illustrates a GET route that
authenticates with Maximo Asset Management and stores the token inside the session.
app.get('/authenticate', function(req, res)
{
var maximo = new Maximo(options);
maximo.authenticate()
.then(function(jsessionid)
{
req.session.authcookie = jsessionid; // Set the token in the session so we can use it for future requests
res.json(jsessionid); // Handle the response after setting the token in the session.
})
.fail(function (error)
{
console.log('****** Error Code = '+error);
});
}
Since the authenticate() function is asynchronous, a deferred Promise is returned, which is fulfilled inside the then() function or the fail() function if the promise is rejected. In either case, the response is handled inside the callback.
The following code snippet illustrates how to use the fetch API. This example returns a ResourceSet and uses all the basic expressions that are available.
router.get('/test_resource_set', function(req, res)
{
var maximo = new Maximo(options);
maximo.resourceobject("MXWODETAIL")
.select(["wonum","description","location","status","assetnum.description"])
.where("status").in(["WAPPR","APPR"])
.and("worktype").equal('CM')
.orderby('wonum','desc')
.pagesize(20)
.fetch()
.then(function(resourceset)
{
jsondata = resourceset.thisResourceSet();
res.json(jsondata);
})
.fail(function (error)
{
console.log('****** Error Code = '+error);
});
});
The following code snippet illustrates how to use the Paging API. In this example, assume that the initial set is fetched with the pagesize() set to a low number, like 20 and stored in the session (req.session.resourcesetjson).
router.get('/test_nextpage', function(req, res)
{
var authcookie = req.session.authcookie;
var maximo = new Maximo(options,authcookie);
maximo.resourceobject("MXWODETAIL")
.nextpage(req.session.resourcesetjson) // The paged resource is stored in session
.then(function(resourceset)
{
if(resourceset)
{
jsondata = resourceset.JSON();
req.session.resourcesetjson = jsondata; /// Store it in the session
res.json(jsondata);
}
res.json({"status":"End of page"})
})
.fail(function (error)
{
console.log('****** Error Code = '+error);
});
});
The following code snippet illustrates how to create a work order by using the Create API.
router.get('/test_create', function(req, res)
{
var wo = '';
var required =
{
"spi:description":"Created from API",
"spi:siteid":"BEDFORD"
}
var authcookie = req.session.authcookie;
var maximo = new Maximo(options,authcookie);
maximo.resourceobject("MXWODETAIL")
.create(required,["spi:wonum","spi:description"])
.then(function(resource)
{
jsondata = resource.JSON();
res.json(jsondata);
})
.fail(function (error)
{
console.log('****** Error Code = '+error);
});
});
The following code snippet illustrates how to use the Update API. In this example, assume that the resourceset is saved in the session (req.session.myresourceset) and the first record in the set is updated by passing the resource URL (req.session.myresourceset[0]["rdf:about"]). The resource URL for the update is contained in "rdf:about".
router.get('/test_update', function(req, res)
{
var wo = '';
var updates =
{
"spi:description":"Updated from Node API - test crudconnector",
"spi:siteid":"BEDFORD"
}
// Assuming myresourceset was previously placed in session
var authcookie = req.session.authcookie;
var maximo = new Maximo(options,authcookie);
maximo.resourceobject("MXWODETAIL")
.resource(req.session.myresourceset[0]["rdf:about"]) //Pass the URI
.update(updates,["spi:wonum","spi:description"])
.then(function(resource)
{
var jsondata = resource.JSON();
res.json(jsondata);
})
.fail(function (error)
{
console.log('****** Error Code = '+error);
});
});
The following code snippet illustrates how to use the Delete API. In this example, assume that the resourceset is saved in the session (req.session.myresourceset) and the first record in the set is updated by passing the resource URL (req.session.myresourceset[0]["rdf:about"]). The resource URL for the update is contained in "rdf:about".
router.get('/test_update', function(req, res)
{
// Assuming myresourceset was previously placed in session
var authcookie = req.session.authcookie;
var maximo = new Maximo(options,authcookie);
maximo.resourceobject("MXWODETAIL")
.resource(req.session.myresourceset[0]["rdf:about"]) //Pass the URI
.delete(["spi:wonum","spi:description"])
.then(function(resource)
{
var jsondata = resource.JSON();
res.json(jsondata);
})
.fail(function (error)
{
console.log('****** Error Code = '+error);
});
});
The following code snippet illustrates how to use the Attachments API.
router.get('/test_attachments', function(req, res)
{
getFileBytes('attachtestt.doc')
.then(function(fileBuffer)
{
console.log("fileBuffer "+fileBuffer.length);
var authcookie = req.session.authcookie;
console.log("********* AuthCookie "+authcookie);
var maximo = new Maximo(options,authcookie);
//var maximo = new Maximo(options);
maximo.resourceobject("MXWODETAIL")
.select(["wonum","description","reportedby","location","status","assetnum.assetnum"])
.where("wonum").equal('1459')
.pagesize(20)
.fetch()
.then(function(resourceset)
{
req.session.myresourceset = resourceset.thisResourceSet();
var rsrc = resourceset.resource(0);
var meta = {
name: 'pmr.doc',
description: 'PMR Recreation Steps',
type: 'FILE',
storeas: 'Attachment',
contentype: 'application/msword'
};
var attch = rsrc.attachment(meta);
attch.create(fileBuffer)
.then(function(resc)
{
console.log("Writing Attachment response ");
//jsondata = rsrc.JSON();
//res.json(jsondata);
});
})
.fail(function (error)
{
console.log('****** Error Code = '+error);
});
});
});
