Reshuffle Quickbooks Connector

This package contains a Reshuffle connector to connect QuickBooks Online app APIs. This connector requires to define a Reshuffle Datastore in order to maintain the Quickbooks access and refresh tokens, the Datastore can be in memory, file or Database. The connector takes care of refreshing the access token.

The following example exposes an endpoint to return the data of Bill after an Update action, the access and refresh tokens are stored in reshuffle DB and will be managed internally by the Reshuffle engine.

const { Reshuffle, SQLStoreAdapter } = require('reshuffle')
const { QuickbooksConnector } = require('reshuffle-quickbooks-connector')

const app = new Reshuffle()

const pool = new Pool({user: 'RESHUFFLE_DB_USER',
  host: 'RESHUFFLE_DB_HOST',
  database: 'RESHUFFLE_DB',
  password: 'RESHUFFLE_DB_PASS',
  port: RESHUFFLE_DB_PORT})
  const persistentStore = new SQLStoreAdapter(pool, 'reshuffledb')
  app.setPersistentStore(persistentStore)

const quickbooksConnector = new QuickbooksConnector(app, {
  realmId: 'REALM_ID',
  consumerKey: 'CONSUMER_KEY',
  consumerSecret: 'CONSUMER_SECRET',
  sandbox: true,
  debug: true,
  baseUrl: 'BASE_RUNTIME_URL',
  webhooksVerifier: 'WEBHOOK_VERIFIER'
})

quickbooksConnector.on({ type: 'Bill/Update' }, async (event, app) => {
  console.log('Bill/Update event ')
  console.log(event.id)
  console.log(event.name)
  console.log(event.operation)
})

app.start()

Configuration options

const app = new Reshuffle()
const quickbooksConnector = new QuickbooksConnector(app, {
  realmId: 'YOUR_REALM_ID',
  consumerKey: 'CONSUMER_KEY',
  consumerSecret: 'CONSUMER_SECRET',
  sandbox: false, // Working environment, Sandbox or Production. Default false. Can be set in process.env.NODE_ENV
  debug: false, // Default false
  callback: 'CALLBACK_PATH', // Default '/callbacks/quickbooks', The path component of one of the redirect URIs listed for this project in the Quickbooks developer dashboard.
  webhookPath: 'WEBHOOK_PATH', // Default '/webhooks/quickbooks', The path component of the Webhook Endpoint URI for this project in the developer dashboard
  baseUrl: 'BASE_RUNTIME_URL',
  webhooksVerifier: 'WEBHOOK_VERIFIER' // Webhook Verifier Token for this project in the developer dashboard
})

sandbox, debug, callback and webhookPath are optional.

More details about the fields are described in node-quickbooks

You can use the webhookPath to configure the url that Quickbooks hits when it makes its calls to. For example - providing baseURL=https://my-reshuffle.com and webhookPath='/webhook will result in a complete webhook path of https://my-reshuffle.com/webhook. If you do not provide a webhookPath, Reshuffle will use the default webhook path for the connector which is /webhooks/quickbooks. You will need to register this webhook with Quickbooks. See instructions.

You can use the callback to configure the redirect URI that your app serves to users upon authentication. For example - providing baseURL=https://my-reshuffle.com and callback='/callback will result in a complete webhook path of https://my-reshuffle.com/callback. If you do not provide a callback, Reshuffle will use the default callback path for the connector which is /callbacks/quickbooks. You will need to register this callback with Quickbooks. See more details about authentication.

Events

Listening to Quickbooks events

To listen to events happening in Quickbooks, you'll need to capture them with the connector's on function, providing a QuickbooksConnectorEventOptions to it.

Events require that an integration webhook is configured in Quickbooks.

The connector triggers events of the following type:

interface QBEvent {
  realmId: string
  name: string // Entity type name e.g. Customer, Account, Bill
  id: string   // Entity ID
  operation: string 
  lastUpdated: string
  action: string
}

Example:

quickbooksConnector.on({ type: 'Bill/Update' }, async (event, app) => {
  console.log('Bill/Update event ')
  console.log(event.id)
  console.log(event.name)
  console.log(event.operation)
})

The description of fields and events can be found here

Actions

The actions are provided via the sdk.

sdk

Returns an object providing full access to the Quickbooks APIs. Full list of available actions in node-quickbooks

const sdk = await connector.sdk()

Example:

const sdk = await quickbooksConnector.sdk()
sdk.getCompanyInfo('YOUR_REALM_ID', function(err, result) {
  console.log('Result: ', JSON.stringify(result))
}
