Librus

Read data from Librus Synergia (unofficial)

Overview

This node integrates with the Librus API, a platform commonly used in educational environments for managing school-related data. The node allows users to perform various operations on different resources such as messages, homework, absences, calendar events, and user info.

Specifically, the Calendar - Get Lucky Number operation retrieves the "lucky number" information associated with the user account from the Librus system. This could be useful in scenarios where the lucky number is part of a gamified or motivational feature within the school environment.

Practical examples:

  • Fetching the lucky number to display it in a custom dashboard.
  • Using the lucky number as part of a student engagement workflow.
  • Integrating lucky number retrieval into automated reports or notifications.

Properties

Name Meaning
Custom method name Advanced: override the underlying Librus API method to call (e.g., getMarks). If set, this custom method will be called instead of the default one for the selected operation.

Note: The node also internally uses other parameters depending on the resource and operation, but for the Calendar - Get Lucky Number operation, no additional input properties are required beyond the optional custom method name.

Output

The output is a JSON object containing the result returned by the Librus API's method for retrieving the lucky number. The structure depends on the API response but typically includes fields relevant to the lucky number data.

  • The output is always JSON.
  • No binary data is produced for this operation.

Example output snippet (conceptual):

{
  "luckyNumber": 7,
  "date": "2024-06-01",
  "description": "Your lucky number for today"
}

Dependencies

  • Requires valid credentials for the Librus API (login and password).
  • Uses an internal client wrapper to communicate with the Librus API.
  • No external environment variables are explicitly required beyond the credentials.
  • The node depends on helper functions for filtering data by date range and converting streams to buffers (used in other operations).

Troubleshooting

  • No supported method found error: If the custom method name or operation does not match any available API methods, the node throws an error listing available methods. To fix, ensure the operation or custom method name is correct and supported by the Librus API.
  • Authentication errors: Invalid or missing credentials will cause authentication failures. Verify that the provided login and password are correct.
  • Empty or unexpected output: Check if the date filters (from, to) or other parameters are correctly set. For the lucky number operation, no date filters apply, so ensure no conflicting parameters are passed.
  • Binary output issues: Not applicable for this operation, but other operations returning files require correct binary property configuration.
