node-netdocs

Purpose

To provide access to the NetDocuments Soap API within node.js applications. Now that NetDocs has a REST API, this is obsolete.

Overview

Javascript functions which accept:

• variables as described in the NetDocuments API documentation
• authentication cookies as needed
• a callback function to be processed after the response

The soap layer is abstracted away and functions return json.

The API includes both a storage endpoint and a directory endpoint which are reference in the functions below.
