Binary APIs

Quantum Fabric SDK offer a different set of API to work with binary data on integration and object service. The APIs allow uploading and downloading binary data from different data providers such as Amazon S3, Box etc.

Online binary API allows downloading the files as a whole (typically small image files), in chunks (large pdfs or videos) or in streaming mode (raw bytes).

NOTE: For SPA/Desktop Web, SDK supports Binary APIs from release version V8 SP3 for Box adapter.

For Android and iOS, the Binary APIs are supported from V8 SP2 for Box adapter.

Integration Service APIs

Download API

The getBinaryData API allows users to download binary objects such as PDF, Document or any other files.

Syntax

getBinaryData(operationName, downloadParams, streaming, headers, fileDownloadStartedCallback, chunkDownloadCompletedCallback, fileDownloadCompletedCallback, fileDownloadFailureCallback, options);

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
operationName	String	Integration service operation that provides the binary details. The parameter is used as part of Integration Service.
downloadParams	JSON	Download related parameters required for downloading the binary.
Streaming	Boolean	Boolean flag to determine if the required data must be sent in chunks or a file after download.
headers		Provision to send custom headers.
fileDownloadCompletedCallback	True/False	The callback is invoked after successful file download with the file path. The parameter is mandatory if the streaming is false.
chunkDownloadCompletedCallback	True/False	The callback is invoked after each successful chunk download. The parameter is invoked when the streaming is true. The callback is mandatory if the streaming is true.
fileDownloadCompletedCallback	True/False	The callback is invoked after successful file download with the file path. The parameter is mandatory if the streaming is false.
fileDownloadFailureCallback		Callback invoked in case of download failure.
options		Optional parameters are sent from this parameter. ChunkSize can be sent from this parameter. The parameter is used as part of Integration Service.

Options

Options	Type	Description	Mandatory
ChunkSize	String	ChunkSize option allows to download the binary in chunks of given size. If a value is not specified, the default value is used. Default size is 1048576.	No

NOTE: It is mandatory to pass all its parameters defined on the service.

Sample Code

function fileDownloadStartedCallback(res) {
    //Callback
}

function chunkDownloadCompletedCallback(res) {
    //Callback
}

function fileDownloadCompletedCallback(res) {
    //Callback
}

function fileDownloadFailureCallback(err) {
    //Callback
}

var downloadParams = {};
var serviceName = "integration_service_name";
// Get an instance of SDK
var client = kony.sdk.getCurrentInstance();
var operationName = "operation_name";

// Adapter specific parameters (Mentioned below)
var integrationSvc = client.getIntegrationService(serviceName);
var streaming = false;
integrationSvc.getBinaryData(operationName,
    downloadParams,
    streaming, {},
    //Provision for user defined headers
    fileDownloadStartedCallback,
    chunkDownloadCompletedCallback,
    fileDownloadCompletedCallback,
    fileDownloadFailureCallback);

NOTE: For Android and iOS platforms, filePath or base64 chunk data is provided based on the streaming flag. For DesktopWeb Blob object is specified in successCallback.

Upload API

The uploadBinaryData API allows users to upload binary objects such as PDF, Document or any other files.

Syntax

uploadBinaryData(operationName, uploadParams, fileUploadStartedCallback, chunkUploadCompletedCallback, fileUploadCompletedCallback, fileUploadFailureCallback)

Parameters

Parameters	Type	Description
operationName	String	Integration Service Operation which provides the binary details. The parameter is used as part of Integration Service.
uploadParams	JSON	upload related parameters required for uploading binary. The parameter is used as part of Integration Service.
fileUploadStartedCallback		The callback is invoked when the upload starts.
chunkUploadCompletedCallback		The callback is invoked when the upload of a chunk is completed. The parameter is applicable for backends that support chunked upload.
fileUploadCompletedCallback		The callback is invoked when the upload completes.
fileUploadFailureCallback		The callback is invoked when the upload fails (for any reason).

 

NOTE: It is mandatory to specify either FilePath or rawBytes for upload in the uploadParams parameter. Both parameters are NOT allowed together.

FilePath must contain a fully qualified path of a valid file present on the device.

rawBytes contains the raw bytes to be uploaded. An obvious usage is capturing an image using camera and uploading the same.

fileObject is accepted for DesktopWeb. fileObject is the output of Browse API and is the instance of File.

Common Parameters

uploadParams	Type	Description	Mandatory
fileName	String	The valid file name of the file to be uploaded with the proper extension.	Yes
FilePath	String	Fully qualified path of a valid file present on the mobile device.	Yes (if rawBytes are not provided)
rawBytes	String	Raw bytes of file to be uploaded	Yes (if FilePath is not provided)
fileObject	File	Output of the Browser API provided by Temenos or the browser is a reference to the file in the device.	Yes (for DesktopWeb)

 

NOTE: It is mandatory to pass all its parameters defined on the service.

Sample Code

function fileUploadStartedCallback(res) {
    //Callback
}

function chunkUploadCompletedCallback(res) {
    //Callback
}

function fileUploadCompletedCallback(res) {
    //Callback
}

function fileUploadFailureCallback(err) {
    //Callback
}

var uploadParams = {};

var serviceName = "integration_service_name";
// Get an instance of SDK
var client = kony.sdk.getCurrentInstance();
var operationName = "operation_name";

// Adapter specific parameters (Mentioned below)
var integrationSvc = client.getIntegrationService(serviceName);

integrationSvc.uploadBinaryData(operationName,
    uploadParams,
    fileUploadStartedCallback,
    chunkUploadCompletedCallback,
