pokemontcg-developers on discord pokemon-tcg-sdk-typescript build status

This is the TypeScript SDK for the Pokémon Trading Card Game API.

Installation

npm

npm install pokemon-tcg-sdk-typescript

yarn

yarn add pokemon-tcg-sdk-typescript

Configuration

The SDK works out of the box! Simply import the SDK, and you're ready to go:

import { PokemonTCG } from 'pokemon-tcg-sdk-typescript';

PokemonTCG.findCardByID('xy7-54').then((card: PokemonTCG.Card) => {
    console.log(card.name) // Gardevoir
})

It is recommended to use an API key for version 2 of the API. By default, requests are limited to 20,000/day. Requests are rate limited to 1000 requests a day, and a maximum of 30 per minute.

To use the SDK with an API key, create an account at https://dev.pokemontcg.io to grab an API key. Then set your API key to the environment variable POKEMONTCG_API_KEY in a .env file. Make sure to use this exact environment variable, otherwise the SDK will not be able to read the API key.
