Usage
$3
Every REST API request should be authenticated using your secret key.
According to the spec, there are two available authentication methods:
1. Uploadcare.Simple
2.
#### Uploadcare.Simple authentication method
With the Uploadcare.Simple authentication method, your secret key gets included in every request. This method isn't secure enough because secret key is exposed to the runtime and will be transmitted over the network.
⚠️We strongly recommend not to use this method in production, especially on the client-side.⚠️
Example:
`typescript
import { listOfFiles, UploadcareSimpleAuthSchema } from '@uploadcare/rest-client';
const uploadcareSimpleAuthSchema = new UploadcareSimpleAuthSchema({
publicKey: 'YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY',
secretKey: 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY',
});
const result = await listOfFiles({}, { authSchema: uploadcareSimpleAuthSchema })
`
#### Uploadcare authentication method
With the Uploadcare authentication method, your secret key is used to derive signature but isn't included in every request itself.
Builtin signature resolver
You can use the builtin signature resolver, which automatically generates signature in-place using crypto module at Node.js or Web Crypto API at browsers.
`typescript
import { UploadcareAuthSchema } from '@uploadcare/rest-client';
new UploadcareAuthSchema({
publicKey: 'YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY',
secretKey: 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY',
})
`
⚠️We strongly recommend not to use builtin signature resolver on the client-side.⚠️
Custom signature resolver
This option is useful on the client-side to avoid secret key leak. You need to implement some backend endpoint, which will generate signature. In this case, secret key will be stored on your server only and will not be disclosed.
`typescript
import { UploadcareAuthSchema } from '@uploadcare/rest-client';
new UploadcareAuthSchema({
publicKey: 'YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY',
signatureResolver: async (signString) => {
/**
* You need to make HTTPS request to your backend endpoint,
* which should sign the signString using secret key./sign-request?signString=${encodeURIComponent(signString)}
*/
const response = await fetch();`
const signature = await response.text();
return signature;
}
})
And then somewhere on your backend:
`javascript
import { createSignature } from '@uploadcare/rest-client';
app.get('/sign-request', async (req, res) => {
const signature = await createSignature('YOUR_SECREY_KEY', req.query.signString);
res.send(signature);
})
`

You can use low-level wrappers to call the API endpoints directly:
`typescript
import { listOfFiles, UploadcareSimpleAuthSchema } from '@uploadcare/rest-client';
const uploadcareSimpleAuthSchema = new UploadcareSimpleAuthSchema({
publicKey: 'YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY',
secretKey: 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY',
});
const result = await listOfFiles({}, { authSchema: uploadcareSimpleAuthSchema })
`
List of all available API methods is available at the rest-client API Reference.

List of all available Settings is available at the rest-client API Reference.

We have the only two paginatable API methods - listOfFiles and listOfGroups. You can use one of those methods below to paginate over.
#### Using async generator and paginate() helper
`typescript
import { listOfFiles, paginate } from '@uploadcare/rest-client'
const uploadcareSimpleAuthSchema = new UploadcareSimpleAuthSchema({
publicKey: 'YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY',
secretKey: 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY',
});
const paginatedListOfFiles = paginate(listOfFiles)
const pages = paginatedListOfFiles({}, { authSchema: uploadcareSimpleAuthSchema })
for await (const page of pages) {
console.log(page)
}
`
#### Using Paginator class
`typescript
import { listOfFiles, Paginator } from '@uploadcare/rest-client'
const uploadcareSimpleAuthSchema = new UploadcareSimpleAuthSchema({
publicKey: 'YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY',
secretKey: 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY',
});
const paginator = new Paginator(listOfFiles, {}, { authSchema: uploadcareSimpleAuthSchema })
while(paginator.hasNextPage()) {
const page = await paginator.next()
console.log(page)
}
while(paginator.hasPrevPage()) {
const page = await paginator.prev()
console.log(page)
}
console.log(paginator.getCurrentPage())
`
Check out the rest-client API Reference for the Paginator.
#### Job status polling
There are two helpers to do job status polling using Conversion API or Addons API: conversionJobPoller and addonJobPoller.
##### Conversion API
`ts
import {
conversionJobPoller,
ConversionType,
UploadcareSimpleAuthSchema
} from '@uploadcare/rest-client'
const uploadcareSimpleAuthSchema = new UploadcareSimpleAuthSchema({
publicKey: 'YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY',
secretKey: 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY'
})
const abortController = new AbortController()
// abortController.abort()
const jobs = await conversionJobPoller(
{
type: ConversionType.VIDEO,
// type: ConversionType.DOCUMENT,
onRun: response => console.log(response), // called when job is started
onStatus: response => console.log(response), // called on every job status request
paths: [':uuid/video/-/size/x720/', ':uuid/video/-/size/x360/'],
store: false,
pollOptions: {
signal: abortController.signal
}
},
{ authSchema: uploadcareSimpleAuthSchema }
)
const results = Promise.allSettled(jobs)
console.log(results)
`
##### Addons API
`ts
import {
addonJobPoller,
AddonName,
UploadcareSimpleAuthSchema
} from '@uploadcare/rest-client'
const uploadcareSimpleAuthSchema = new UploadcareSimpleAuthSchema({
publicKey: 'YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY',
secretKey: 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY'
})
const abortController = new AbortController()
// abortController.abort()
const result = await addonJobPoller(
{
addonName: AddonName.UC_CLAMAV_VIRUS_SCAN,
// addonName: AddonName.AWS_REKOGNITION_DETECT_LABELS,
// addonName: AddonName.REMOVE_BG,
onRun: response => console.log(response), // called when job is started
onStatus: response => console.log(response), // called on every job status request
target: ':uuid',
params: {
purge_infected: false
},
pollOptions: {
signal: abortController.signal
}
},
testSettings
)
console.log(result)
