Using JavaScript
Contents
This section describes how to invoke the Guillotine API directly from a JavaScript client.
Example: Fetch content by type
In our example, we will use the http://localhost:8080/site/moviedb/master endpoint to make a request to the GraphQL API. More information about endpoints can be found here.
This endpoint expects to receive an HTTP POST request with the following properties in the body of the request:
-
A mandatory "query" String
-
An optional "variables" Object
Example: Fetch data from a javascript client
const query = `query($type:String){
guillotine {
queryDsl(query: {
term: {
field: "type",
value: {
string: $type
}
}
}){
... on com_enonic_app_moviedb_Playlist {
_id
displayName
}
}
}
}`;
const variables = {
'type': 'com.enonic.app.moviedb:playlist'
};
fetch('http://localhost:8080/site/moviedb/master', {
method: 'POST',
body: JSON.stringify({
query: query,
variables: variables
}),
credentials: 'same-origin'
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(console.log);
