Akamai API for Node.js

node-akamai allows for easy communication with Akamai's REST CCU API to purge/invalidate cached objects.

Installation

npm install akamai

Example Usage

var akamai = require('akamai');
 
akamai.purge('john@example.com', '...', [
  'http://example.com/somewhere',
  'http://example.com/cool',
  'http://example.com/but',
  'http://example.com/nowhere',
  'http://example.com/real'
], {domain: 'staging', action: 'invalidate'}).then(function (response) {
  console.log(response);
}).catch(function (err) {
  console.log(err.body);
  console.trace();
});
 
// ===
 
akamai.invalidate.staging.url('john@example.com', '...', [
  'http://example.com/somewhere',
  'http://example.com/cool',
  'http://example.com/but',
  'http://example.com/nowhere',
  'http://example.com/real'
]).then(function (response) {
  console.log(response);
}).catch(function (err) {
  console.log(err.body);
  console.trace();
});

See more examples:

• basic purge
• chainable configuration

.purge(username, password, objects[, options])

Create a purge request. Returns a promise.

username

Username of account with access to API.

password

Password for that account.

objects

Array of strings representing the full urls/cpcodes of the content you wish to be purged. Depending on the options.type value, this array can represent cpcode names to be purged/invalidated.

options

• type Of urls. They can be urls or cpcodes.
  • arl [Default]
  • cpcode
• domain The network to target your request.
  • production [Default]
  • staging
• action
  • remove [Default]
  • invalidate

response

In the result of the request's promise, the response will contain a .status function that is pre-configured to execute a AkamaiStatus request with the purge request's progressUri.

Option Modifiers

This library offers a more readable way to set the options for a API request. See constants.js. At the root level of this library only the following modifiers are available:

• remove
• invalidate
• purge

All modifier functions only take username, password, and objects as arguments.

.queue(username, password)

Make a request to check the length of the queue. Returns a promise.

.status(username, password, progressUri)

Make a request to check status of a given progressUri. Returns a promise.

Note, that if you are using this within a purge request, you will be able to execute response.status() to retrieve a request's status in Akamai's queue.
