Retries

Some of the endpoints in this SDK support retries. If you use the SDK without any configuration, it will fall back to the default retry strategy provided by the API. However, the default retry strategy can be overridden on a per-operation basis, or across the entire SDK.

To change the default retry strategy for a single API call, simply provide a retryConfig object to the call:
`typescript
import { CodatAccounting } from "@codat/accounting";

async function run() {
const sdk = new CodatAccounting({
security: {
authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
},
});

const res = await sdk.accountTransactions.get(
{
accountTransactionId: "string",
companyId: "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
connectionId: "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
},
{
strategy: "backoff",
backoff: {
initialInterval: 1,
maxInterval: 50,
exponent: 1.1,
maxElapsedTime: 100,
},
retryConnectionErrors: false,
}
);

if (res.statusCode == 200) {
// handle response
}
}

run();

`

If you'd like to override the default retry strategy for all operations that support retries, you can provide a retryConfig at SDK initialization:
`typescript
import { CodatAccounting } from "@codat/accounting";

async function run() {
const sdk = new CodatAccounting({
retry_config: {
strategy: "backoff",
backoff: {
initialInterval: 1,
maxInterval: 50,
exponent: 1.1,
maxElapsedTime: 100,
},
retryConnectionErrors: false,
},
security: {
authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
},
});

const res = await sdk.accountTransactions.get({
accountTransactionId: "string",
companyId: "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
connectionId: "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
});

if (res.statusCode == 200) {
// handle response
}
}

run();

`


Error Handling

Handling errors in this SDK should largely match your expectations. All operations return a response object or throw an error. If Error objects are specified in your OpenAPI Spec, the SDK will throw the appropriate Error type.

| Error Object | Status Code | Content Type |
| --------------- | --------------- | --------------- |
| errors.SDKError | 400-600 | / |

Example

`typescript
import { CodatAccounting } from "@codat/accounting";

async function run() {
const sdk = new CodatAccounting({
security: {
authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
},
});

let res;
try {
res = await sdk.accountTransactions.get({
accountTransactionId: "string",
companyId: "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
connectionId: "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
});
} catch (err) {
if (err instanceof errors.SDKError) {
console.error(err); // handle exception
throw err;
}
}

if (res.statusCode == 200) {
// handle response
}
}

run();

`


Server Selection

$3

You can override the default server globally by passing a server index to the serverIdx: number optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected server will then be used as the default on the operations that use it. This table lists the indexes associated with the available servers:

| # | Server | Variables |
| - | ------ | --------- |
| 0 | https://api.codat.io | None |

#### Example

`typescript
import { CodatAccounting } from "@codat/accounting";

async function run() {
const sdk = new CodatAccounting({
serverIdx: 0,
security: {
authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
},
});

const res = await sdk.accountTransactions.get({
accountTransactionId: "string",
companyId: "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
connectionId: "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
});

if (res.statusCode == 200) {
// handle response
}
}

run();

`

$3

The default server can also be overridden globally by passing a URL to the serverURL: str optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:
`typescript
import { CodatAccounting } from "@codat/accounting";

async function run() {
const sdk = new CodatAccounting({
serverURL: "https://api.codat.io",
security: {
authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
},
});

const res = await sdk.accountTransactions.get({
accountTransactionId: "string",
companyId: "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
connectionId: "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
});

if (res.statusCode == 200) {
// handle response
}
}

run();

`


Custom HTTP Client

The Typescript SDK makes API calls using the axios HTTP library. In order to provide a convenient way to configure timeouts, cookies, proxies, custom headers, and other low-level configuration, you can initialize the SDK client with a custom AxiosInstance object.

For example, you could specify a header for every request that your sdk makes as follows:

`typescript
import { @codat/accounting } from "CodatAccounting";
import axios from "axios";

const httpClient = axios.create({
headers: {'x-custom-header': 'someValue'}
})

const sdk = new CodatAccounting({defaultClient: httpClient});
`


Authentication

$3

This SDK supports the following security scheme globally:

| Name | Type | Scheme |
| ------------ | ------------ | ------------ |
| authHeader | apiKey | API key |

You can set the security parameters through the security optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:
`typescript
import { CodatAccounting } from "@codat/accounting";

async function run() {
const sdk = new CodatAccounting({
security: {
authHeader: "Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
},
});

const res = await sdk.accountTransactions.get({
accountTransactionId: "string",
companyId: "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
connectionId: "2e9d2c44-f675-40ba-8049-353bfcb5e171",
});

if (res.statusCode == 200) {
// handle response
}
}

run();
