@filebase/client

A client library for the https://filebase.com/ service. It provides a convenient interface for working with the Raw HTTP API from a web browser or Node.js and comes bundled with TS for out-of-the box type inference and better IntelliSense.

Install

Install the package using npm

npm install @filebase/client

Or yarn

yarn add @filebase/client

Usage

First, obtain an API token from https://filebase.com and use it in place of API_TOKEN below:

import { FilebaseClient, File } from '@filebase/client'
const filebaseClient = new FilebaseClient({ token: 'API_TOKEN' })

const metadata = await filebaseClient.store({
    name: 'Pinpie',
    description: 'Pin is not delicious beef!',
    image: new File(
      [
        /* data */
      ],
      'pinpie.jpg',
      { type: 'image/jpg' }
    ),
})
console.log(metadata.url)
// ipfs://bafyreib4pff766vhpbxbhjbqqnsh5emeznvujayjj4z2iu533cprgbz23m/metadata.json

import { FilebaseClient } from '@filebase/client'
const filebaseClient = new FilebaseClient({ token: 'API_TOKEN' })

const content = new Blob(['hello world'])
const cid = await filebaseClient.storeBlob(content)
console.log(cid);

The client uses ESM modules. If running from Node.js, either name your script index.mjs or name it index.js and use npm init to create a new package.json file in your project directory, adding "type": "module", to it.

Run the script:

node index.mjs # or index.js

For more examples please see the API documentation.
