GapiAutoBatcher

GapiAutoBatcher automatically batches requests to Google's APIs, when they are
made within a short interval

Including the script

When you load Google's javascript api, they ask you to provide a callback function:

``html

`

This forces you to write one function that is notified when the library is ready
for use. GapiAutoBatcher contains a utility that allows you to treat the google
api loading like a promise. But for that to work, you'll have to load
GapiAutoBatcher before the api client library. If you don't want to use the promise,
you can just load GapiAutoBatch.js at the end of the body element, or wherever in your HTML you'd like.

Here's an example of how you can use this promise:

`html




`

Using the GapiAutoBatcher

To start batching requests, you create a new GapiAutoBatcher object. You can
do thos by calling GapiAutoBatcher(config). It works both with and without new.

$3

constructs a new autobatcher

#### Arguments

- config - configuration options. We currently support 2 options. If an option isn't given, it is taken from GapiAutoBatcher.defaults.
- batchInterval - If a request is called within batchInterval milliseconds of the previous one, it is included in the batch.
- maxWait - the maximum number of miliseconds any request can wait before it has to be executed.

returns the original request, so you can chain request.then() to this call.

You can change any of these configuration options by changing properties of GapiAutoBatcher.config.

$3

Executes the request, adding it to a batch.

#### arguments

- request - the request to be batched.

commands used during development

- npm test - Starts the karma test runner, watching the directory for changes.
- npm start - If you have python installed, this command starts a simple web server that serves this project. Google's javascript api's don't work in a html file on the file:// protocol, so run this to view example.html
- sh build.sh` - runs UglifyJs 2 to produce GapiAutoBatcher.min.js
