Appwrite Console SDK

!License
!Version

This SDK is compatible with Appwrite server version latest. For older versions, please check previous releases.

Appwrite is an open-source backend as a service server that abstracts and simplifies complex and repetitive development tasks behind a very simple to use REST API. Appwrite aims to help you develop your apps faster and in a more secure way. Use the Console SDK to integrate your app with the Appwrite server to easily start interacting with all of Appwrite backend APIs and tools. For full API documentation and tutorials go to https://appwrite.io/docs

Installation

$3

To install via NPM:

``bash
npm install @appwrite.io/console --save
`

If you're using a bundler (like Rollup or webpack), you can import the Appwrite module when you need it:

`js
import { Client, Account } from "@appwrite.io/console";
`

To install with a CDN (content delivery network) add the following scripts to the bottom of your tag, but before you use any Appwrite services:

`html

`

Getting Started

$3

For you to init your SDK and interact with Appwrite services you need to add a web platform to your project. To add a new platform, go to your Appwrite console, choose the project you created in the step before and click the 'Add Platform' button.

From the options, choose to add a Web platform and add your client app hostname. By adding your hostname to your project platform you are allowing cross-domain communication between your project and the Appwrite API.

$3

Initialize your SDK with your Appwrite server API endpoint and project ID which can be found in your project settings page.

`js
// Init your Web SDK
const client = new Client();

client
.setEndpoint('http://localhost/v1') // Your Appwrite Endpoint
.setProject('455x34dfkj') // Your project ID
;
`

$3

Once your SDK object is set, access any of the Appwrite services and choose any request to send. Full documentation for any service method you would like to use can be found in your SDK documentation or in the API References section.

`js
const account = new Account(client);

// Register User
account.create(ID.unique(), "email@example.com", "password", "Walter O'Brien")
.then(function (response) {
console.log(response);
}, function (error) {
console.log(error);
});

`

$3

`js
// Init your Web SDK
const client = new Client();

client
.setEndpoint('http://localhost/v1') // Your Appwrite Endpoint
.setProject('455x34dfkj')
;

const account = new Account(client);

// Register User
account.create(ID.unique(), "email@example.com", "password", "Walter O'Brien")
.then(function (response) {
console.log(response);
}, function (error) {
console.log(error);
});

The Appwrite Web SDK provides type safety when working with database documents through generic methods. Methods like listDocuments, getDocument, and others accept a generic type parameter that allows you to specify your custom model type for full type safety.

TypeScript:
`typescript
interface Book {
name: string;
author: string;
releaseYear?: string;
category?: string;
genre?: string[];
isCheckedOut: boolean;
}

const databases = new Databases(client);

try {
const documents = await databases.listDocuments(
'your-database-id',
'your-collection-id'
);

documents.documents.forEach(book => {
console.log(Book: ${book.name} by ${book.author}); // Now you have full type safety
});
} catch (error) {
console.error('Appwrite error:', error);
}
`

JavaScript (with JSDoc for type hints):
`javascript
/**
* @typedef {Object} Book
* @property {string} name
* @property {string} author
* @property {string} [releaseYear]
* @property {string} [category]
* @property {string[]} [genre]
* @property {boolean} isCheckedOut
*/

const databases = new Databases(client);

try {
/* @type {Models.DocumentList} /
const documents = await databases.listDocuments(
'your-database-id',
'your-collection-id'
);

documents.documents.forEach(book => {
console.log(Book: ${book.name} by ${book.author}); // Type hints available in IDE
});
} catch (error) {
console.error('Appwrite error:', error);
}
`

Tip: You can use the appwrite types command to automatically generate TypeScript interfaces based on your Appwrite database schema. Learn more about type generation.

The Appwrite Web SDK raises an AppwriteException object with message, code and response properties. You can handle any errors by catching the exception and present the message to the user or handle it yourself based on the provided error information. Below is an example.

`javascript
try {
const user = await account.create(ID.unique(), "email@example.com", "password", "Walter O'Brien");
console.log('User created:', user);
} catch (error) {
console.error('Appwrite error:', error.message);
}
``
