**Warning:** Not yet production ready! The API is still subject to change without notice and it's using blocking I/O internally.

## Dependencies

* openssl

## General

**Pass types:**

* Boarding passes `boardingPass`
* Coupon `coupon`
* Event ticket `eventTicket`
* Store card `storeCard`
* Generic `generic`

## Usage

```
$ npm install passbooker
```

### Preparation

1. Get your Passbook certificate from the [Apple Developer portal](https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/certificate/certificateList.action), import it into your key chain and export it as a passwordless PKCS #12 archive (e.g. **Certificates.p12**).
2. Get the [Worldwide Developer Relations Certificate](http://www.apple.com/certificateauthority/),import it into your key chain and export it as a PEM (e.g. **WWDR.pem**).
3. Use the node-passbooker CLI to extract the certificate and private key needed to sign your Passbooks.
4. Put **pass.pem**, **pass-key.pem** and **WWDR.pem** in a dir your node app can access and set the **keysPath** to your template.

```
$ ./node_modules/passbooker/bin/node-passbooker -c './path/to/Certificates.p12' -o './keys/'

-->

keys
  +--- pass.pem
  +--- pass-key.pem
  +--- WWDR.pem

```

### Example

```javascript

var path = require('path');
var fs = require('fs');
var Passbooker = require('passbooker');

var templateOptions = {
  
  // Mandatory
  passTypeIdentifier:'pass.acmecorp.genericFoo',
  teamIdentifier: 'XXXXXXXXXX',
  organizationName: 'ACME Corp',
  imagePath: path.join( __dirname, 'samples', 'images' ),
  keysPath: path.join( __dirname, 'samples', 'keys' ),

  // Nice to have
  logoText: 'ACME Corp',
  description: 'Foo bar'

};

var template = new Passbooker.Template( 'generic', templateOptions );

template
  .setPrimaryField( 'headline', 'ACME Generic card' )

var pass = new Passbooker.Pass( template, {
  serialNumber: 'foo:bar:1'
});

pass
  .setSecondaryField( 'acme_id', 'ID', 'xxxx' )
  .setSecondaryField( 'acme_pin', 'PIN', 'xxxx' )
  .setBackField( 'acme_id', 'ID', 'xxxx' );

pass.getPackage(function( err, passPackage ) {
  if ( !!err ) {
    return console.log( err );
  }
  fs.writeFileSync( './samples/fooBar.pkpass', passPackage );
});


```
