Installation

$3

``bash
npm install @vonage/server-client
`

$3

`bash
yarn add @vonage/server-client
`

Usage

To create a client, you will need to pass in a @vonage/auth object.

`js
const { Auth } = require('@vonage/auth');
const { Client } = require('@vonage/server-client');

const vonageClient = new Client (new Auth({
apiKey: API_KEY,
apiSecret: API_SECRET,
applicationId: APP_ID,
privateKey: PRIVATE_KEY_PATH,
}),
options,
);
`

You will now be able to send requests using the client:

`js
const response = await vonageClient.sendGetRequest('https://rest.nexmo.com/account/numbers')
`

$3

The constructor for the client takes in two parameters credentials and
options. credentials is either an Auth
or an object containing the settings from AuthInterface.

options allows adjusting api endpoints and the request timeout.

* restHost: string (optional) - Allows overwriting the default https://rest.nexmo.com.
* apiHost: string (optional) - Allows overwriting the default https://api.nexmo.com.
* videoHost: string (optional) - Allows overwriting the default https://video.api.vonage.com.
* timeout: int (optional) - Set a custom timeout for requests to Vonage in
milliseconds. Defaults to the standard for Node http requests, which is
120,000 ms.
* appendUserAgent: string (optional) - Set a custom string to be added to the
user-agent header for the request

File Downloads

When downloading files, the request needs to be built with proper security
headers set. Inside this package is the FileClient which will handle the
request. You can download a file using the File Id or the FQURL.

`js
const { Auth } = require('@vonage/auth');
const { FileClient } = require('@vonage/server-client');

const fileClient = new FileClient(new Auth({
apiKey: API_KEY,
apiSecret: API_SECRET,
applicationId: APP_ID,
privateKey: PRIVATE_KEY_PATH,
}),
options,
);

await fileClient.downloadFile('the-file-id-or-url', '/paht/to/save');
`

Testing

Run:

`bash
npm run test
