apiRouteBuilder ​

The route builder adapter gives you an jQuery-like and Axios-esque API to construct your API calls. It is easy to use and allows you to build your API calls in a declarative way by chaining path segments and HTTP request methods:

ts
// GET request to <baseURL>/users
const users = await api.users.get<UserResponse>()

Get started by using the apiRouteBuilder adapter:

ts
import { apiRouteBuilder, createClient } from 'apiverse'

// Set the base URL for your API calls
const baseURL = 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com'

const api = createClient({ baseURL }).with(apiRouteBuilder())

Path Segment Chaining ​

Chain single path segments or path IDs by a dot. You can type the response by passing a generic type to the method:

ts
// GET request to <baseURL>/users
const response = await api.users.get<UserResponse>()

For GET request, the first parameter is used as query parameters:

ts
// <baseURL>/users?search=john
const response = await api.users.get<UserResponse>({ search: 'john' })

For HTTP request methods supporting a payload, the first parameter is used as payload:

ts
// POST request to <baseURL>/users
const response = await api.users.post({ name: 'foo' })

To include dynamic API path segments, you can choose between the chain syntax or the bracket syntax:

ts
const userId = 1

// Typed GET request to <baseURL>/users/1
// … using the chain syntax:
const user = await api.users(userId).get<UserResponse>()
// … or the bracket syntax:
const user = await api.users[`${userId}`].get<UserResponse>()

HTTP Request Methods ​

The following methods are supported as the last method in the chain:

  • get(<query>, <fetchOptions>)
  • post(<payload>, <fetchOptions>)
  • put(<payload>, <fetchOptions>)
  • delete(<payload>, <fetchOptions>)
  • patch(<payload>, <fetchOptions>)

Override Default Options ​

If you need to override the default options set in createClient, you can pass custom fetch options to the method call:

ts
const response = await api.users.get({
  headers: {
    'Cache-Control': 'no-cache',
  },
})
