Parse-sdk-js: RFE: Parse.Cloud.runJob

Created on 5 Oct 2017 · 4Comments · Source: parse-community/Parse-SDK-JS

Hi,
It would be great to be able to call a Job using the js sdk (using the masterkey, so from a Cloud hook or Function). It would remove the need to use a lib like 'request-promise' and simplify the way we send params.

Thx,
Olivier

If anyone needs a Node.js example, here is my (modest) REST code:

const rp = require('request-promise');

async function runJob(jobName, params) {
    const options = {
        url: Parse.serverURL + '/jobs/' + jobName,
        headers: {
            'X-Parse-Application-Id': Parse.applicationId,
            'X-Parse-Master-Key': Parse.masterKey
        }
    };
    if (params) {
        options.json = params;
    }
    return rp.post(options);
}

@flovilmart Where is Parse.Cloud.job defined in the JS SDK? I can do a PR for this.
