Javascript and REST API

The default homepage uses mainly the REST API. In order to simplify the processing of the JSON data and to unify the dynamic generation of the homepage, multiple Javascript classes are used.

Each JSON object in the JSON structures has a type "JSON+typeName" and the corresponding revision of this type "JSON+typeRevision". For every of these objects, there is a Javascript class with the same name as the object's type name.

class	description
jObject	The abstract class for all the following classes.
jApiKey	a pair of access keys for the REST API (see Accessing Data)
jApiKeys	the complete apikeys object
jBoard	the complete assembleBoard object
jData	the complete data object
jData(Ai,Ao,Di,Do)	values of individual IOs
jProperties	the complete properties object
jHostEntry	a configuration of a network interface
jNetworkInterface	the settings and all configurations of a network interface
jPcb	information about the PCB
jProcess	the complete process object
