Listing Bases and Tables #60

Open sumit0k opened 6 years ago

sumit0k commented 6 years ago

How can you programmatically list bases or tables? For example, what do I do if I don't know ahead of time what base to use and need to select it from a list of available bases?

Base has a property tables but it is undefined, which can be seen here.

var Airtable = require('airtable');
var base = new Airtable({apiKey: 'keyXXXXXXXXXX'}).base('appphXXXXXXXX');
console.log(base.tables);

>>undefined

But base('Base table') is working as expected.

my users want to be able to list their bases and tables so they can choose one to embed in their OverDRIVE sites...

See this nice hint regarding listing tables (not bases): https://github.com/Airtable/airtable.js/issues/12#issuecomment-349987627.

+1 to request. Also the always undefined tables attribute on the baseFn until this is implement is just confusing.
