Class: manager

Methods

fetch([url][, payload], method)

start([url][, payload], method)

new manager_node(response_handler)

Contructor for the REST query manager; NodeJS-style.

This is an asynchronous engine, so while both fetch and start will run the callbacks, fetch will return null while start returns a promise for the eventual result. Using the promise is entirely optional--the main method is still considered to be the callbacks.

NodeJS BBOP manager for dealing with remote calls. Remember, this is actually a "subclass" of .
