pieshop

pieshop is a Javascript client for RESTful APIs. It is being developed as a client for django-tastypie.

Python dependencies (for running tests)

• django
• django-tastypie
• mimeparse
• django-qunit

features

• callback-driven chainable query interface inspired by Django's ORM
• resource objects (aka "models")
• filtering
• limit/offset

goals

The primary goal is to develop a complete Javascript abstraction of the django-tastypie RESTful API. Other goals include:

• pluggable backends (more than just django-tastypie)
• support for HTTP methods GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE.
• validation/error handling
• more delicious pie-themed goodness

Example usage

Person = pieshop.resource({
    'resource_uri': 'http://mysite.com/api/person/',
    'get_full_name': function(person) {
        return person.first_name + person.last_name;
    }
});

pieshop.query(Person).limit(10).offset(10).filter({'sex': 'female'}).each(function(person) {
    console.log(person);
    console.log(person.get_full_name());
});
