Update Package (Before) - Kibo Documentation

Related API: This extension modifies the Update Return Package operation.

This action manipulates the HTTP request or response before the UpdatePackage operation occurs in Kibo.

JavaScript File Structure

Action files share the following basic structure:

module.exports = function(context, callback) {
   // Your custom code here
   callback();
};

When you code the custom function for an action, you have access to two arguments: callback—This argument follows the established JavaScript callback pattern: it takes an error as the first argument (or null if there is no error) and a result as the second argument (if required). context—This argument provides the function access to relevant objects and methods that interface with Kibo.

Context: HTTP

The methods and objects documented here are available to this action through the use of the context argument. REST API Operation
