This is not a good practice to expose this secrets in java script variables. Please have a look at my blog and try to authenticate using APEX which is server side validation. In my blog I have shown a secure way to connect with Salesforce API using Auth provider and named credientials where no one sees the password and not stored anywhere.
If you follow the approach authtication will be done by salesforce no extra code required you can call any Salesforce API. but it will be serverside only.
But if you want to do it from client side you can get help from here https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.ajax.meta/ajax/sforce_api_ajax_introducing.htm
