A lightweight, promise based abstraction layer for Quick Base Records

Written in TypeScript, targets Nodejs and the Browser

This library targets the new RESTful JSON-based API, not the old XML-based API. If you want to use the old XML-based API, then please use [v2.x](https://github.com/tflanagan/node-qb-record/tree/v2.x/) of this library.

```
IE 11 Users, if you are receiving this error:
XMLHttpRequest: Network Error 0x80070005, Access is denied.

This is not a limitation of the library, just how Quick Base's new API works.
In order to use the new RESTful JSON-based API in Internet Explorer, you must
change a security setting:

- Go to Internet Options -> Security -> Custom Level
- Scroll down to and find the "Miscellaneous" section
- Ensure "Access data sources across domains" is set to "Enable"
- Click "OK", "Yes", "OK"
```

Install
-------
```
# Install
$ npm install --save qb-record
```

Server-Side Example
-------------------
```typescript
import { QBRecord } from 'qb-record';
import { QuickBase } from 'quickbase';

const quickbase = new QuickBase({
realm: 'www',
userToken: 'xxxxxx_xxx_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
// Use tempToken if utilizing an authentication token sent
// up from client-side code. If possible, this is preferred.
// tempToken: 'xxxxxx_xxx_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
});

const qbRecord = new QBRecord({
quickbase: quickbase,
dbid: 'xxxxxxxxx',
recordid: 3
});

(async () => {
try {
const results = await qbRecord.load();

console.log(qbRecord.get('recordid'), results.recordid);
}catch(err){
console.error(err);
}
})();
```

Client-Side Example
-------------------
Import `QBRecord` by loading `qb-record.browserify.min.js`

```javascript
var quickbase = new QuickBase({
realm: 'www'
});

var qbRecord = new QBRecord({
quickbase: quickbase,
dbid: 'xxxxxxxxx',
recordid: 3
});

// Using a Temporary Token
quickbase.getTempTokenDBID({
dbid: 'xxxxxxxxx'
}).then(function(results){
return qbRecord.load();
}).then(function(results){
console.log(qbField.get('recordid'), results.recordid);
}).catch(function(err){
console.error(err);
});
```
