Package Exports
- mindee
- mindee/src/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 (mindee) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Quickly and easily connect to Mindee's API services using Node.js.
Quick Start
Here's the TL;DR of getting started.
First, get an API Key
Then, install this library:
npm install mindeeFinally, Node.js away!
Loading a File and Parsing It
Global Documents
const mindee = require("mindee");
// for TS or modules:
// import * as mindee from "mindee";
// Init a new client
const mindeeClient = new mindee.Client({ apiKey: "my-api-key" });
// Load a file from disk and parse it
const apiResponse = mindeeClient
.docFromPath("/path/to/the/file.ext")
.parse(mindee.InvoiceV4);Region-Specific Documents
const mindee = require("mindee");
// for TS or modules:
// import * as mindee from "mindee";
// Init a new client
const mindeeClient = new mindee.Client({ apiKey: "my-api-key" });
// Load a file from disk and parse it
const apiResponse = mindeeClient
.docFromPath("/path/to/the/file.ext")
.parse(mindee.fr.IdCardV1);Custom Documents (API Builder)
const mindee = require("mindee");
// for TS or modules:
// import * as mindee from "mindee";
// Init a new client and add your document endpoint
const mindeeClient = new mindee.Client({ apiKey: "my-api-key" })
.addEndpoint({
accountName: "john",
endpointName: "wsnine",
});
// Load a file from disk and parse it
const apiResponse = mindeeClient
.docFromPath("/path/to/the/file.ext")
.parse(mindee.CustomV1, { endpointName: "wsnine" });Handling the Return
// Handle the response Promise
apiResponse.then((resp) => {
// The `document` property can be undefined:
// * TypeScript will not compile without this guard clause
// (or consider using the '?' notation)
// * JavaScript will be very happy to produce subtle bugs
// without this guard clause
if (resp.document === undefined) return;
// full object
console.log(resp.document);
// string summary
console.log(resp.document.toString());
