A Netlify OpenAPI client that works in the browser and Node.js.

Usage

const NetlifyAPI = require('netlify')

const listNetlifySites = async function () {
  const client = new NetlifyAPI('1234myAccessToken')
  const sites = await client.listSites()
  return sites
}

Using OpenAPI operations

const NetlifyAPI = require('netlify')

const client = new NetlifyAPI('1234myAccessToken')
const listCreateAndDeleteSite = async function () {
  // Fetch sites
  const sites = await client.listSites()
  // Create a site. Notice body here for sending OpenAPI body
  const site = await client.createSite({
    body: {
      name: my-awesome-site,
      // ... https://open-api.netlify.com/#/default/createSite
    },
  })
  // Delete site. Notice site_id is a path parameter https://open-api.netlify.com/#/default/deleteSite
  await client.deleteSite({
    site_id: siteId,
  })
}

API

client = new NetlifyAPI([accessToken], [opts])

Create a new instance of the Netlify API client with the provided

accessToken

accessToken

opts

const opts = {
  userAgent: 'netlify/js-client',
  scheme: 'https',
  host: 'api.netlify.com',
  pathPrefix: '/api/v1',
  accessToken: '1234myAccessToken',
  agent: undefined, // e.g. HttpsProxyAgent
  globalParams: {}, // parameters you want available for every request.
  // Global params are only sent of the OpenAPI spec specifies the provided params.
}

client.accessToken

A setter/getter that returns the

accessToken

accessToken

client.basePath

A getter that returns the formatted base URL of the endpoint the client is configured to use.

OpenAPI Client methods

The client is dynamically generated from the OpenAPI definition file. Each method is is named after the

operationId

Every OpenAPI operation has the following signature:

response = await client.operationId([params], [opts])

Performs a call to the given endpoint corresponding with the

operationId

status

• params

  is an object that includes any of the required or optional endpoint parameters.

• params.body

  should be an object which gets serialized to JSON automatically. Any object can live here but refer to the OpenAPI specification for allowed fields in a particular request body. It can also be a function returning an object.
• If the endpoint accepts

  binary

  ,

  params.body

  can be a Node.js readable stream or a function returning one (e.g.

  () => fs.createReadStream('./foo')

  ). Using a function is recommended.

// example params
const params = {
  any_param_needed,
  paramsCanAlsoBeCamelCase,
  body: {
    an: 'arbitrary js object',
  },
}

Optional

opts

node-fetch

headers

defaultHeaders

// example opts
const opts = {
  headers: {
    // Default headers
    'User-agent': 'netlify-js-client',
    accept: 'application/json',
  },
  // any other properties for node-fetch
}

All operations are conveniently consumed with async/await:

const getSomeData = async () => {
  // Calls may fail!
  try {
    return await client.getSiteDeploy({
      siteId: '1234abcd',
      deploy_id: '4567',
    })
  } catch (error) {
    // handle error
  }
}

If the response includes

json

contentType

text

API Flow Methods

Some methods have been added in addition to the open API operations that make certain actions simpler to perform.

accessToken = await client.getAccessToken(ticket, [opts])

Pass in a

ticket

accessToken

client.createTicket({ client_id })

accessToken

this.accessToken

accessToken

Optional

opts

const opts = {
  poll: 1000, // number of ms to wait between polling
  timeout: 3.6e6, // number of ms to wait before timing out
}

See the authenticating docs for more context.

// example:
const open = require('open') // installed with 'npm i open'

const login = async () => {
  const ticket = await client.createTicket({
    clientId: CLIENT_ID,
  })
  // Open browser for authentication
  await open(https://app.netlify.com/authorize?response_type=ticket&ticket=${ticket.id})
  const accessToken = await client.getAccessToken(ticket)
  // API is also set up to use the returned access token as a side effect
  return accessToken // Save this for later so you can quickly set up an authenticated client
}

Proxy support

Node.js only: If this client is used behind a corporate proxy, you can pass an

HttpsProxyAgent

http.Agent

agent

const HttpsProxyAgent = require('https-proxy-agent')

const proxyUri = 'http(s)://[user:[email protected]]proxyhost:port'
const agent = new HttpsProxyAgent(proxyUri)
const client = new NetlifyAPI('1234myAccessToken', { agent })

Site deployment

Support for site deployment has been removed from this package in version 7.0.0. You should consider using the

deploy

UMD Builds

A UMD build is provided for your convenience, however browser support is still experimental. Contributions to improve browser support are welcome.
