Build API clients for TypeScript

  • [アーティクル]

In this tutorial, you build a sample app in TypeScript that calls a REST API that doesn't require authentication.

Required tools

Create a project

Run the following commands in the directory where you want to create a new project.

npm init
npm install -D typescript @types/node
npx tsc --init

Project configuration

In case you're adding a Kiota client to an existing project, the following configuration is required:

  • tsconfig > compilerOptions > esModuleInterop set to "true".
  • tsconfig > compilerOptions > forceConsistentCasingInFileNames set to "true".
  • tsconfig > compilerOptions > lib with an entry of "es2015".
  • tsconfig > compilerOptions > module set to "NodeNext".
  • tsconfig > compilerOptions > moduleResolution set to "NodeNext".
  • tsconfig > compilerOptions > target set to "es2020" or later.
  • package.json > type set to "module".

Add dependencies

Before you can compile and run the generated API client, you need to make sure the generated source files are part of a project with the required dependencies. Your project must have a reference to the bundle package. For more information about Kiota dependencies, see the dependencies documentation.

Run the following commands to get the required dependencies.

npm install @microsoft/kiota-bundle

Generate the API client

Kiota generates API clients from OpenAPI documents. Create a file named posts-api.yml and add the following.

openapi: '3.0.2'
info:
  title: JSONPlaceholder
  version: '1.0'
servers:
  - url: https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/

components:
  schemas:

      parameters:

      responses:

      - $ref: '#/components/parameters/post-id'
      responses:
        '200':
          description: OK

This file is a minimal OpenAPI description that describes how to call the /posts endpoint in the JSONPlaceholder REST API.

You can then use the Kiota command line tool to generate the API client classes.

kiota generate -l typescript -d posts-api.yml -c PostsClient -o ./client

Tip

Add --exclude-backward-compatible if you want to reduce the size of the generated client and are not concerned about potentially source breaking changes with future versions of Kiota when updating the client.

Create the client application

Create a file in the root of the project named index.ts and add the following code.

import { AnonymousAuthenticationProvider } from "@microsoft/kiota-abstractions";
import { FetchRequestAdapter } from "@microsoft/kiota-http-fetchlibrary";
import { createPostsClient } from "./client/postsClient.js";
import { Post } from "./client/models/index.js";

// API requires no authentication, so use the anonymous
// authentication provider
const authProvider = new AnonymousAuthenticationProvider();
// Create request adapter using the fetch-based implementation
const adapter = new FetchRequestAdapter(authProvider);
// Create the API client
const client = createPostsClient(adapter);

async function main(): Promise<void> {
  try {
    // GET /posts
    const allPosts = await client.posts.get();
    console.log(`Retrieved ${allPosts?.length} posts.`);

    // GET /posts/{id}
    const specificPostId = 5;
    const specificPost = await client.posts.byPostId(specificPostId).get();
    console.log(
      `Retrieved post - ID: ${specificPost?.id}, Title: ${specificPost?.title}, Body: ${specificPost?.body}`
    );

    // POST /posts
    const newPost: Post = {
      userId: 42,
      title: "Testing Kiota-generated API client",
      body: "Hello world!",
    };

    const createdPost = await client.posts.post(newPost);
    console.log(`Created new post with ID: ${createdPost?.id}`);

    // PATCH /posts/{id}
    const update: Post = {
      // Only update title
      title: "Updated title",
    };

    const updatedPost = await client.posts
      .byPostId(specificPostId)
      .patch(update);
    console.log(
      `Updated post - ID: ${updatedPost?.id}, Title: ${updatedPost?.title}, Body: ${updatedPost?.body}`
    );

    // DELETE /posts/{id}
    await client.posts.byPostId(specificPostId).delete();
  } catch (err) {
    console.log(err);
  }
}

main();

Note

The JSONPlaceholder REST API doesn't require any authentication, so this sample uses the AnonymousAuthenticationProvider. For APIs that require authentication, use an applicable authentication provider.

Run the application

To start the application, run the following command in your project directory.

tsc && node out/index.js
