# Azure DevOps Client for Node.js

Integrate with Azure DevOps from your Node.js apps.

### Install the library
```
npm install azure-devops-node-api --save
```

## News

## Get started

### Samples

See [samples](./samples) for complete coding examples

### Install the library
```
npm install azure-devops-node-api --save
```

![Intellisense](docs/intellisense.png)  

### Create a connection
```javascript
import * as azdev from "azure-devops-node-api";

// your collection url
let orgUrl = "https://dev.azure.com/yourorgname";

let token: string = process.env.AZURE_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN;

let authHandler = azdev.getPersonalAccessTokenHandler(token); 
let connection = new azdev.WebApi(orgUrl, authHandler);    
```

> Please note that some API's (e.g. ProfileApi) can't be hit at the org level, and has to be hit at the deployment level,
so url should be structured like https://**vssps**.dev.azure.com/{yourorgname}

### Get an instance of a client

```javascript
import * as ba from "azure-devops-node-api/BuildApi";

let build: ba.IBuildApi = await connection.getBuildApi();
```

#### Available clients

These clients are available:

* Build
* Core
* Dashboard
* ExtensionManagement
* FeatureManagement
* FileContainer
* Git
* Locations
* Notification
* Policy
* Profile
* ProjectAnalysis
* Release
* SecurityRoles
* TaskAgent
* Task
* Test
* Tfvc
* Wiki
* Work
* WorkItemTracking
* WorkItemTrackingProcess
* WorkItemTrackingProcessDefinitions

### Use the client
 
Coding is easy using linear coding with async/await in TypeScript

```javascript
import * as bi from "azure-devops-node-api/interfaces/BuildInterfaces";

async function run() {
    let project: string = "myProject";
    let defs: bi.DefinitionReference[] = await build.getDefinitions(project);

    defs.forEach((defRef: bi.DefinitionReference) => {
        console.log(`${defRef.name} (${defRef.id})`);
    });    
}

run();
```

## APIs

To see what APIs are available, see the appropriate client interface. For example, [GitApi.ts](https://github.com/Microsoft/azure-devops-node-api/blob/master/api/GitApi.ts)

More detailed information for the endpoints of each API can be found at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/vsts/?view=vsts-rest-4.1

## Running Samples
