Doesn't QuickBase already have an official client?\n----------\nThe official QuickBaseClient.js, as of today, was last updated in 10/3/2013. In addition to not being actively maintained, the library wasn't built using current javascript best-practices.\n\nOne fundamental issue that this project hopes to solve is that this plugin provides callbacks for all QuickBase API methods, providing developers with a fully asynchronous interface. With the current client, this is not supported and as a result, many QuickBase applications must set setTimeout or else the page can 'block' the user from performing specific actions while the API call returns.\n\n##Usage\n1. Include jQuery:\n\n    ```html\n\t\u003cscript src=\"http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.0.0/jquery.min.js\"\u003e\u003c/script\u003e\n\t```\n\n2. Include plugin's code:\n\n\t```html\n\t\u003cscript src=\"dist/jquery.quickbase.min.js\"\u003e\u003c/script\u003e\n\t```\n\n3. Init the plugin:\n\n    ```javascript\n    var $qb = $.QuickBase({\n\t\tusername: 'your_username',\n\t\tpassword: 'your_password',\n\t\tdbid: 'main_dbid',\n\t\tapptoken: 'app_token',\n\t\trealm: 'your-realm.quickbase.com'\n\t});\n    ```\n\n4. Go! (Adding a new record)\n    ```javascript\n    $qb.init(function() {\n        // you are now authenticated\n    \t$qb.build_schema(function(schema) {\n            // you now have a sweet obj representing your app\n\t\t\twindow.app = schema;\n\n            // change dbid to the table you wish to use\n\t\t\t$qb.settings.dbid = app.projects.dbid;\n\n            // create an array of records to add to the projects table\n\t\t\trecords = [\n\t\t\t    $qb.record(app.projects.fields.name.id, 'Sample Project'),\n\t\t\t    $qb.record(app.projects.fields.status.id, 'New'),\n\t\t\t    $qb.record(app.projects.fields.start_date.id, '10/1/2013'),\n\t\t\t    $qb.record(app.projects.fields.need_by_date.id, '10/1/2013'),\n\t\t\t    $qb.record(app.projects.fields.priority.id, 'Low'),\n\t\t\t    $qb.record(app.projects.fields.rating.id, 5),\n\t\t\t];\n\n            // add record!\n            $qb.add_record(records, function(response) {\n\t\t\t    console.log(response);\n\t\t\t});\n        });\n    });\n    ```\n\n## Testing Outside of QuickBase\nBrowser security limitations will normally prevent you from using this plugin outside of a QuickBase DBPage.\n\nHowever, you can pass the --disable-web-security flag to Chrome and it will allow you to make cross-domain requests, effectively allowing you to test and dev in a local environment.\n\n**Add this to your .bash_profile\n\n```html\nalias chrome-xss='open -a Google\\ Chrome --args --disable-web-security --allow-file-access-from-files'\n```\n\nLaunch chrome:\n\n```javascript\nchrome-xss\n```\n\n##Demos\nA demo of how to add/edit/query records can be found in the /demo folder of the project.\n\nSupport\n-----------\nContact Joshua McGinnis @ [joshua@mcginn.is](mailto:joshua@mcginn.is) or [BrookLab](http://www.brooklab.com).\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjoshuamcginnis%2Fquickbase-jquery","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fjoshuamcginnis%2Fquickbase-jquery","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjoshuamcginnis%2Fquickbase-jquery/lists"}
