comand.repo()
Returns an object that can be used to make web service requests to the repository.
It is critical to restrict user accounts associated with tokens embedded in JavaScript code to only be able to access content and perform operations available to the public. This is because anyone can easily obtain the token from web browser developer tools or by sniffing internet traffic, and then used to perform their own custom requests to retrieve any content available to that user account.
Prototype
