Documentation for SoftwireStaff module

Getting a list of people

use softwireStaff.getAllPeople() to get a list of all staff members. This will return an array of strings, which are the staff members names.

Getting person data

use softwireStaff.getPersonData(name) to get the information for a specific staff member. This will return a promise, containing the data in the following format:

{
    name: 'John',
    awesomeness: 0,
    programmingAbility: 4,
    location: 'London'
}

It will take half a second to load. If the staff member is not in the records, it will reject with the error message "No such person"

Getting a postcode of a location

use softwireStaff.getPostcode(person) to find the postcode for the office where an employee works. This will return a string containing the postcode. If person.location is not a valid softwire office, it will throw an error with the format: { error: 'Not a valid office', personName: person.name}

Getting coding skill

We use a tiered list of coding languages, in an array, from easiest to hardest. To get an employees languages they can use, pass in their programmingAbility property into softwireStaff.getLanguages(ability). It will return a promise, containing an array of strings represnting the languages to use.
