πŸ›  Usage

Basic API Configuration

First, set up the API configuration. Define the API and its base URL.

import {Api, Route} from 'klaim';
// For deno: import { Api, Route } from "@antharuu/klaim";

// Your simple Todo type
type Todo = {
    userId: number;
    id: number;
    title: string;
    completed: boolean;
};

// Create a new API with the name "hello" and the base URL "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/"
Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Define routes for the API
    Route.get<Todo[]>("listTodos", "todos");
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]");
    Route.post<Todo>("addTodo", "todos");
});

Route Definition

Routes represent endpoints in your API and can be defined with different HTTP methods. Routes can include parameters and custom configurations:

Api.create("api", "https://api.example.com", () => {
    // Basic GET route
    Route.get("listUsers", "/users");
    
    // GET route with URL parameter
    Route.get("getUser", "/users/[id]");
    
    // POST route with custom headers and body
    Route.post("createUser", "/users", {
        "Content-Type": "application/json"
    }, { userId: 1, name: "John Doe" });
    
    // PUT route with parameter
    Route.put("updateUser", "/users/[id]");
    
    // DELETE route
    Route.delete("deleteUser", "/users/[id]");
    
    // PATCH route
    Route.patch("updateUserStatus", "/users/[id]/status");
    
    // OPTIONS route
    Route.options("userOptions", "/users");
});

Groups

Klaim provides powerful grouping capabilities for both APIs and routes. Groups can be used to organize related elements, share configuration, and maintain a clean structure in your application.

API Groups

Organize multiple APIs that serve related purposes:

import {Group, Api, Route} from 'klaim';

// Create a group for user-related services
Group.create("userServices", () => {
    // Authentication API
    Api.create("auth", "https://auth.example.com", () => {
        Route.post("login", "/login");
        Route.post("register", "/register");
    });

    // User Management API
    Api.create("users", "https://users.example.com", () => {
        Route.get("list", "/users");
        Route.get("getOne", "/users/[id]");
    });
}).withRetry(3); // Apply retry mechanism to all APIs in the group

// Access grouped APIs
await Klaim.userServices.auth.login({}, { username: "user", password: "pass" });
await Klaim.userServices.users.list();

Route Groups

Organize routes within an API into logical groups:

Api.create("hello", "https://api.example.com/", () => {
    // Group user-related routes
    Group.create("users", () => {
        Route.get<User[]>("list", "/users");
        Route.get<User>("getOne", "/users/[id]");
        Route.post<User>("create", "/users");
    }).withCache(60);  // Cache all user routes for 60 seconds
    
    // Group product-related routes
    Group.create("products", () => {
        Route.get("list", "/products");
        Route.get("getOne", "/products/[id]");
    });
});

// Use grouped routes
const users = await Klaim.hello.users.list();
const product = await Klaim.hello.products.getOne({ id: 1 });

Nested Groups

Create complex hierarchies with nested groups:

Group.create("services", () => {
    // Internal services group
    Group.create("internal", () => {
        Api.create("logs", "https://logs.internal.example.com", () => {
            Route.post("write", "/logs");
        });
        
        Api.create("metrics", "https://metrics.internal.example.com", () => {
            Route.post("track", "/metrics");
        });
    }).withRetry(5);  // More retries for internal services
    
    // External services group
    Group.create("external", () => {
        Api.create("weather", "https://api.weather.com", () => {
            Route.get("forecast", "/forecast/[city]");
        });
        
        Api.create("geocoding", "https://api.geocoding.com", () => {
            Route.get("search", "/search/[query]");
        });
    }).withCache(300);  // Cache external services longer
});

// Access nested groups
await Klaim.services.internal.logs.write({}, { message: "Log entry" });
await Klaim.services.external.weather.forecast({ city: "Paris" });

Group Configuration

Groups can share configuration among all their members:

Group.create("apis", () => {
    Api.create("service1", "https://api1.example.com", () => {
        Route.get("test", "/test");
    });
    
    Api.create("service2", "https://api2.example.com", () => {
        Route.get("test", "/test");
    });
})
    .withCache(60)  // Enable caching for all APIs
    .withRetry(3)   // Enable retries for all APIs
    .before(({ config }) => {  // Add authentication for all APIs
        config.headers.Authorization = `Bearer ${getToken()}`;
    })
    .after(({ data }) => {  // Process all responses
        logResponse(data);
    });

Request Handling

Handle requests using the defined routes:

import {Klaim} from 'klaim';
// For deno: import { Klaim } from "@antharuu/klaim";

// Make a request to the "listTodos" route
const listOfTodos = await Klaim.hello.listTodos<Todo[]>();

// Make a request to the "getTodo" route with the parameter "id"
const todo = await Klaim.hello.getTodo<Todo>({id: 1});

// Make a request to the "addTodo" route
const newTodo = await Klaim.hello.addTodo<Todo>({}, {title: "New Todo", completed: false, userId: 1});

Middleware Usage

Add middleware to modify requests and responses. Use before middleware to alter requests before they are sent and after middleware to process responses:

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // With before middleware
    Route.get<Todo>("getRandomTodo", "todos")
        .before(({url}) => {
            const random = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10) + 1;
            return {url: `${url}/${random}`};
        });

    // With after middleware
    Route.get<Todo>("getFirstTodo", "todos")
        .after(({data: [first]}) => ({data: first}));
});

Hook Subscription

Subscribe to hooks to monitor specific events:

import {Hook} from 'klaim';
// For deno: import { Hook } from "@antharuu/klaim";

// Subscribe to the "hello.getFirstTodo" hook
Hook.subscribe("hello.getFirstTodo", ({url}) => {
    console.log(`Requesting ${url}`);
});

Caching Requests

Enable caching on requests to reduce network load and improve performance. By default, the cache duration is 20 seconds, but you can specify a custom duration in seconds.

Caching Individual Routes

You can enable caching on individual routes:

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Get a list of todos with default cache duration (20 seconds)
    Route.get<Todo[]>("listTodos", "todos").withCache();

    // Get a specific todo by id with custom cache duration (300 seconds)
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]").withCache(300);

    // Add a new todo (no cache)
    Route.post<Todo>("addTodo", "todos");
});

Now, when making requests, the caching feature will be applied.

Caching the Entire API

You can also enable caching for all routes defined within an API:

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Define routes for the API
    Route.get<Todo[]>("listTodos", "todos");
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]");
    Route.post<Todo>("addTodo", "todos");
}).withCache(); // Enable default cache duration (20 seconds) for all routes

Retry Mechanism

Automatically retry failed requests to enhance reliability. You can specify the number of retry attempts for individual routes or for the entire API.

Retry on Individual Routes

Enable retry on individual routes:

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Get a list of todos with retry mechanism (default: 2)
    Route.get<Todo[]>("listTodos", "todos").withRetry();

    // Get a specific todo by id with retry mechanism (specified to 5)
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]").withRetry(5);

    // Add a new todo (no retry)
    Route.post<Todo>("addTodo", "todos");
});

Retry the Entire API

Enable retry for all routes defined within an API:

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Define routes for the API
    Route.get<Todo[]>("listTodos", "todos");
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]");
    Route.post<Todo>("addTodo", "todos");
}).withRetry();

Now, when a request fails, it will be retried the specified number of times before ultimately failing.

Response Validation

You can use Yup to validate the response schema for increased reliability and consistency. You can specify a schema for individual routes to ensure the response data conforms to the expected structure.

⚠️ Note: This feature requires the yup package to be installed.

Adding Validation to Individual Routes

Enable validation on individual routes:

import * as yup from 'yup';

// Define the schema using Yup
const todoSchema = yup.object().shape({
    userId: yup.number().required(),
    id: yup.number().min(1).max(10).required(),
    title: yup.string().required(),
    completed: yup.boolean().required()
});

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Get a specific todo by id with validation
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]").validate(todoSchema);
});

// This request will fail because the id is out of range
const todoFail = await Klaim.hello.getTodo<Todo>({id: 15});

// This request will succeed
const todo = await Klaim.hello.getTodo<Todo>({id: 1});
