## How to use

### Create a Cognitive Services Bing Search Account

```javascript
  const msRestAzure = require('ms-rest-azure');
  const CognitiveServicesManagement = require("azure-arm-cognitiveservices");
  let client;
  let createAccount = msRestAzure.interactiveLogin().then((credentials) => {
    client = new CognitiveServicesManagement(credentials, suite.subscriptionId);
    return client.accounts.create('groupname', 'accountname', {
      sku: {
        name: "S1"
      },
      kind: "Bing.Search",
      location: "westus",
      properties: {}
    });
  }).catch((err) => {
    console.log('An error ocurred');
    console.dir(err, {depth: null, colors: true});
  });
```

### List the keys from the created account

```javascript
  let serviceKey;
  createAccount.then((result) => {
    return client.accounts.listKeys('groupname', 'accountname');
  }).then((result) => {
    serviceKey = result.key1;
    console.log(result.key2);
  }).catch((err) => {
    console.log('An error ocurred');
    console.dir(err, {depth: null, colors: true});
  });
```

### Create credentials

 ```javascript
 const CognitiveServicesCredentials = require('ms-rest-azure').CognitiveServicesCredentials;
 let credentials = new CognitiveServicesCredentials(serviceKey);
 ```

### Query the Image Search API

 ```javascript
const ImageSearchAPIClient = require('azure-cognitiveservices-imagesearch');

let client = new ImageSearchAPIClient(credentials);
