execute #

Executes a Kuzzle's API action.

Arguments #

execute(request, [callback]);

function

Return #

The execute function resolves to an updated Request object, with its response part set.

How the response is returned depends whether a callback argument is provided:

• if it is: the execute function returns nothing, and the callback is called once the API call is finished, with the following arguments: callback(error, request)
• otherwise: the execute function returns a promise, resolving to the updated request, or rejected with a KuzzleError object

Example #

const request = new context.constructors.Request({
  index: 'index',
  collection: 'collection',
  controller: 'document',
  action: 'get',
  _id: 'documentID'
});

try {
  // Mutates the provided Request object by updating the response part of
  // it (accessible through the "request.response" property).
  await context.accessors.execute(request);
} catch (error) {
  // "error" is an object inheriting the KuzzleError class
}
