This README explains how to setup the sample to use the Staging environment vs Production.
It is a configuration which works only for people having access to the staging environment (Autodesk internal only)

Autodesk View and Data API Node.js Basic Sample

This setup is only available for people having access to the staging server. If you do not have credentials for the staging server, do not use these instructions.

Description

A sample demonstrating how to view a model in a web application with the Autodesk View & Data API. This web application has a basic Node.js server and JavaScript/HTML5 client. This sample does not demonstrate how to upload a model to the Autodesk server for translation. See instructions below to prepare a model to be consumed in this sample.

Dependencies

Install Node.js on your machine and clone this repo. Download the project dependencies using npm before running the app by running the following command in the project root directory

npm install

on the node.js console. This will install the following node.js modules in the project:

  • express
  • request
  • serve-favicon

This sample does not include the workflow of uploading models. on the server It depends on other workflow samples to upload models and get model URNs - as explained in the Setup/Usage Instructions.

Setup/Usage Instructions

  • Apply for your own credentials (API keys) from http://developer-stg.autodesk.com
  • From the sample root folder, rename or copy the ./credentials_.js file into ./credentials.js
    • Windows 
      copy credentials_.js credentials.js
    • OSX/Linux 
      cp credentials_.js credentials.js
  • Replace the placeholders with your own keys in credentials.js, line #23 and #24 
    client_id: process.env.CONSUMERKEY || '<replace with your consumer key>';

client_secret: process.env.CONSUMERSECRET || '<replace with your consumer secret>';
  • In file credentials.js line #26, replace the BaseUrl address by the staging server address 
    credentials.BaseUrl = 'https://developer-stg.api.autodesk.com' ;
  • Upload one of your models to your account and get its URN using another workflow sample, for example,
  • Copy the URN which was generated in the previous step in file /www/index.js at line #18 
    var defaultUrn = '<replace with your encoded urn>';
  • In file /www/index.html (line #33 and #34), use the viewer3D.min.js and style.css files from the staging server, but using the code below 
    <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="https://developer-stg.api.autodesk.com/viewingservice/v1/viewers/style.css"/>

<script src="https://developer-stg.api.autodesk.com/viewingservice/v1/viewers/viewer3D.min.js"></script>
  • In file /www/index.js, comment out line #23, and uncomment line #24
  • Run the server from the Node.js console, by running the following command: 
    node server.js
  • Connect to you local server using a WebGL-compatible browser: http://localhost:3000/
