CWMSjs

_CWMS Data API (CDA) client library created with OpenAPI generator in TypeScript for use with web browsers._

Getting Started

- Install CWMSjs to your react project with:
npm install cwmsjs
(This will grab the latest)

- Import the API endpoint you wish to use:
- Avaiable endpoints are here (Classes ending in API): Endpoints
- At the top of your js/jsx/file type:
``javascript
import { TimeSeriesAPI } from "cwmsjs";
`
- Then initialize the TimeSeriesAPI with:
`javascript
const ts_api = new TimeSeriesAPI();
`
- Fetch time series data with:
`javascript
await ts_api
.getTimeSeries({
office: "SWT",
name: "KEYS.Elev.Inst.1Hour.0.Ccp-Rev",
})
.then((data) => {
console.log(data);
})
.catch((e) => {
console.log("My Error", e);
});
`

Documentation is available for both developers and new users:

- New Users : Examples
- Advanced users : Type Documentation / Developer Docs

API Adjustments

Some tweaks are made to the base cwms-data-api syntax during the build process to improve quality of life while working in JavaScript. Users should be aware of the following:

$3

Most response object keys in CDA are written in snake-case. All response object keys have been converted to camelCase in order to play more nicely with javascript's object dot notation (object.key).

$3

Throughout CDA, "time series" is arbitrarily referred to in both a one-word ("timeseries") and two-word ("time series") format. During the cwmsjs build, all instances of "time series" for method names, types, etc. are standardized to the two-word form.

Developers

$3

In order to accommodate changes both to the generator and to CDA itself, cwmsjs is versioned in the following format:
[generator SemVer]-[generation date]

CDA is expected to at some point expose a CalVer for the latest update. When this is available, the generation date will be replaced with the current CDA CalVer.

$3

Contributors with authorization can publish a new version of cwmsjs by manually running the "Build, Test, and Publish" GitHub Action.

The workflow will build an updated cwmsjs library using the current generator and national CDA instance OpenAPI spec. If all tests pass, the library will be published to npm and updated documentation will be deployed to GitHub Pages.

Building CWMSjs from source

- Clone this repository
- Install dependencies with: npm install
- Run the generator with:
npm run build

All generated files (source, library, and docs) will be in [repo]/cwmsjs`
