Installation

npm install front-api-library

Peer Dependencies

This library requires React Query and React to be installed in your project:

npm install @tanstack/react-query react react-dom

Quick Start

  1. Setup React Query in your app:
import { QueryClient, QueryClientProvider } from "@tanstack/react-query";

const queryClient = new QueryClient();

function App() {
  return (
    <QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>
      {/* Your app components */}
    </QueryClientProvider>
  );
}
  1. Use the hooks in your components:
import { useLogin, useGetProducts } from "front-api-library";

function LoginForm() {
  const loginMutation = useLogin("your-api-endpoint", "your-token");

  const handleLogin = () => {
    loginMutation.mutate({
      email: "user@example.com",
      password: "password",
    });
  };

  return (
    <button onClick={handleLogin} disabled={loginMutation.isPending}>
      {loginMutation.isPending ? "Logging in..." : "Login"}
    </button>
  );
}

function ProductList() {
  const { data, isLoading, error } = useGetProducts(
    "your-api-endpoint",
    "your-token",
    1, // current page
    "electronics", // category
    "smartphone" // search term
  );

  if (isLoading) return <div>Loading...</div>;
  if (error) return <div>Error: {error.message}</div>;

  return (
    <div>
      {data?.products.products.map((product) => (
        <div key={product.id}>{product.name}</div>
      ))}
    </div>
  );
}

TypeScript Support

The library includes comprehensive TypeScript definitions. All hooks are fully typed, including:

  • Loading states

Import types as needed:

import type { TUser, TProduct, TLoginResponse } from "front-api-library";

Error Handling

All hooks return React Query's standard error handling:

const { data, error, isLoading, isError } = useGetProducts(/* ... */);

if (isError) {
  console.error("API Error:", error.message);
}

For mutations:

const mutation = useLogin(endpoint, token);

mutation.mutate(loginData, {
  onSuccess: (data) => {
    console.log("Login successful:", data);
  },
  onError: (error) => {
    console.error("Login failed:", error.message);
  },
});
