Typescript API client with autocompletion and zod validations

Package Exports

  • @zodios/core
  • @zodios/core/lib/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@zodios/core) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

What is it ?

It's an axios compatible API client, with the following features:

  • really simple centralized API declaration
  • typescript autocompletion in your favorite IDE for URL and parameters
  • typescript response types
  • parameters and responses schema thanks to zod
  • response schema validation
  • bearer token injection and token renewal with simple token provider interface
  • all axios features available

Install

> npm install @zodios/core

or

> yarn add @zodios/core

Usage

For an almost complete example on how to use zodios and how to split your APIs declarations, take a look at dev.to example.

Declare your API with zodios

Here is an example of API declaration with Zodios.

import { Zodios } from "@zodios/core";
import { z } from "zod";

const apiClient = new Zodios(
  "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com",
  // API definition
  [
    {
      method: "get",
      path: "/users/:id", // auto detect :id and ask for it in apiClient get params
      alias: "getUser", // optionnal alias to call this endpoint with it
      description: "Get a user",
      response: z.object({
        id: z.number(),
        name: z.string(),
      }),
    },
  ] as const,
);

Calling this API is now easy and has builtin autocomplete features :

//   typed                     auto-complete path   auto-complete params
//     ▼                               ▼                   ▼
const user = await apiClient.get("/users/:id", { params: { id: 7 } });
console.log(user);

It should output

{ id: 7, name: 'Kurtis Weissnat' }

You can also use aliases :

//   typed                     alias   auto-complete params
//     ▼                        ▼                ▼
const user = await apiClient.getUser({ params: { id: 7 } });
console.log(user);

Use token provider plugin

Zodios comes with a plugin to inject and renew your tokens :

  import { pluginToken } from '@zodios/plugins';

  apiClient.use(pluginToken({
    getToken: async () => "token"
  }));

Get underlying axios instance

you can get back the underlying axios instance to customize it.

const axiosInstance = apiClient.axios;

Give your own axios instance to zodios

you can instanciate zodios with your own axios intance.

const apiClient = new Zodios(
  "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com",
  [ ... ] as const,
  // Optional Axios instance
  {
    axiosIntance: customAxiosInstance
  }
);

Disable zodios response validation

const apiClient = new Zodios(
  "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com",
  [ ... ] as const,
  // Disable validation
  {
    validateResponse: false
  }
);

React helpers

Zodios comes with a Query and Mutation hook helper.
It's a thin wrapper around React-Query but with zodios auto completion.

Zodios query hook also returns an invalidation helper to allow you to reset react query cache easily

import { QueryClient, QueryClientProvider } from 'react-query';
import { Zodios } from "@zodios/core";
import { ZodiosHooks } from "@zodios/react";
import { z } from "zod";

const userSchema = z
  .object({
    id: z.number(),
    name: z.string(),
  });
const usersSchema = z.array(userSchema);

type User = z.infer<typeof userSchema>;
type Users = z.infer<typeof usersSchema>;

const api = [
  {
    method: "get",
    path: "/users",
    description: "Get all users",
    response: usersSchema,
  },
  {
    method: "post",
    path: "/users",
    description: "Create a user",
    parameters: [
      {
        name: "body",
        type: "Body",
        schema: userSchema,
      },
    ],
    response: userSchema,
  },
] as const;
const baseUrl = "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com";

const zodios = new Zodios(baseUrl, api);
const zodiosHooks = new ZodiosHooks("jsonplaceholder", zodios);

const Users = () => {
  const {
    data: users,
    isLoading,
    error,
    invalidate: invalidateUsers,
  } = zodiosHooks.useQuery("/users");
  const { mutate } = zodiosHooks.useMutation("post", "/users", {
    onSuccess: () => invalidateUsers(), // zodios also provides invalidation helpers
  });

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Users</h1>
      <button onClick={() => mutate({ data: { id: 10, name: "john doe" } })}>
        add user
      </button>
      {isLoading && <div>Loading...</div>}
      {error && <div>Error: {(error as Error).message}</div>}
      {users && (
        <ul>
          {users.map((user) => (
            <li key={user.id}>{user.name}</li>
          ))}
        </ul>
      )}
    </div>
  );
};

// on another file
const queryClient = new QueryClient();

export const App = () => {
  return (
    <QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>
      <Users />
    </QueryClientProvider>
  );
};
