What it Does

DashingClient sends stats to Dashing, the exceptionally handsome dashboard framework.

In much the same way that you can send data from the command line using curl:

curl -d '{ "auth_token": "YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN", "text": "Hey, Look what I can do!" }'\
\http://localhost:3030/widgets/welcome

You can send data using DashingClient from your node.js program:

DashingClient = require('dashing-client');

dashing = new DashingClient("http://localhost:3030", "YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN");
dashing.send("welcome", {text: "Hey, look what I can do!"}, function(err, resp, body) {
    // Do callback stuff
});

Note that you can also pass authentication credentials for basic_auth:

DashingClient = require('dashing-client');

dashing = new DashingClient("http://localhost:3030", "YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN",
  {auth: {user: "user", pass: "secret"}});

Installation

Install with:

npm install dashing-client
