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 (storyblok-js-client) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Universal JavaScript SDK for Storyblok's API
This client is a thin wrapper for the Storyblok API's to use in Node.js and the browser.
đ Usage
Install
npm install storyblok-js-client # yarn add storyblok-js-clientHow to use it
Using the Content Deliver API
// 1. Require the Storyblok client
const StoryblokClient = require("storyblok-js-client");
// 2. Initialize the client with the preview token
// from your space dashboard at https://app.storyblok.com
let Storyblok = new StoryblokClient({
accessToken: <YOUR_SPACE_ACCESS_TOKEN>,
});Using the Content Management API
// 1. Require the Storyblok client
const StoryblokClient = require("storyblok-js-client");
const spaceId = <YOUR_SPACE_ID>;
// 2. Initialize the client with the oauth token
// from the my account area at https://app.storyblok.com
let Storyblok = new StoryblokClient({
oauthToken: <YOUR_OAUTH_TOKEN>,
});
Storyblok.post(`spaces/${spaceId}/stories`, {
story: { name: "xy", slug: "xy" },
});
Storyblok.put(`spaces/${spaceId}/stories/1`, {
story: { name: "xy", slug: "xy" },
});
Storyblok.delete(`spaces/${spaceId}/stories/1`, null);Using the RichTextResolver separately
You can import and use the RichTextResolver directly:
// you should need to use the format when import
// es - when you are in EsModules environment (like React, Vue apps, for example)
// cjs - when you are in NodeJS environment
// standalone - when you are in Browser environment directly
import RichTextResolver from 'storyblok-js-client/dist/rich-text-resolver.es'
// const RichTextResolver = require('storyblok-js-client/dist/rich-text-resolver.cjs')
const resolver = new RichTextResolver()
const html = resolver.render(data)Using from the Browser directly
This package has a standalone version that contains all dependencies and you can use it to import and use our package inside the browser.
<!-- This import makes the StoryblokClient class available globally -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/storyblok-js-client@5.0.0/dist/index.standalone.js"></script>
<!-- This import makes the RichTextResolver class available globally -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/storyblok-js-client@5.0.0/dist/rich-text-resolver.standalone.js"></script>If you want a bundle with Babel (for non-es6 browsers):
<!-- This import makes the StoryblokClient class available globally -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/storyblok-js-client@5.0.0/dist/es5/index.standalone.js"></script>
<!-- This import makes the RichTextResolver class available globally -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/storyblok-js-client@5.0.0/dist/es5/rich-text-resolver.standalone.js"></script>Note about use of Babel
This package doesn't use the Babel by default in the final bundle. So, if you want a Babel transpiled file, you need to set the es5/ prefix on import:
// for CommonJS environments (NodeJS)
const StoryblokClient = require('storyblok-js-client/dist/es5/index.cjs')
// for EsModules environments
import StoryblokClient from 'storyblok-js-client/dist/es5/index.es'NEW BRANCHES AND VERSIONS
The old master branch containing version 4.x.y has been moved to the v4 branch.
Weâve renamed the master branch to main and now it contains version 5.0.0.
If you wish to continue using the non Typescript version with axios, please use version 4. You can install it by running npm install https://github.com/storyblok/storyblok-js-client.git#4.x.x.
BREAKING CHANGES - FROM VERSION 5
Added TypeScript - Version 5
We added TypeScript to our codebase, improving our code quality and assuring the correct implementation from the client's side. This change will probably break your code, because your Storyblok client's current implementation is possibly sending the wrong types to the source.
All the types are declared under src/types. If you use an IDE to code, you'll be able to hover the problematic cause and see what is being expected from the type. Yet, you can keep using our version without TypeScript.
Axios removal - Version 5
We removed our dependency on axios in Version 5. If you want to continue using our SDK with axios, please use version 4.
The proxy feature was also removed in this version.
Isomorphic fetch - Version 5
Since we removed Axios, and some developers may want to use the SDK under Node's environment, we added isomorphic-fetch to deal with fetch, AbortController and XMLHttpRequest.
Node already deals with those features natively from Version 17. We'll keep using isomorphic-fetch until Node's most recent versions become more popular and more widely used.
As part of our efforts to make the SDK more lightweight to web users, under the hood, the import of node-fetch is conditionally done depending on if the app is under the Node's environment or not.
Documentation
Assets structure compatibility
We added retro-compatibility when using resolve_assets: 1 parameter under V2. Now, if you are using our V2 client, you should receive the assets structure just the same as V1.

Activating request cache
The Storyblok client comes with a caching mechanism.
When initializing the Storyblok client you can define a cache provider for caching the requests in memory.
To clear the cache you can call Storyblok.flushCache() or activate the automatic clear with clear: 'auto'.
let Storyblok = new StoryblokClient({
accessToken: <YOUR_SPACE_ACCESS_TOKEN>,
cache: {
clear: "auto",
type: "memory",
},
});Passing response interceptor
The Storyblok client lets you pass a function that serves as a response interceptor to it. Usage:
let Storyblok = new StoryblokClient({
accessToken: <YOUR_SPACE_ACCESS_TOKEN>,
cache: {
clear: "auto",
type: "memory",
},
responseInterceptor: (response) => {
// one can handle status codes and more with the response
if (response.status === 200) {
// handle your status here
}
// ALWAYS return the response
return response;
},
});Removing response interceptor
One can remove the reponseInterceptor at any time, by calling the function ejectInterceptor as shown below:

Following a code example using the storyblok-js-client to backup all content on your local filesystem inside a 'backup' folder.
const StoryblokClient = require("storyblok-js-client");
const fs = require("fs");
let client = new StoryblokClient({
accessToken: <YOUR_SPACE_ACCESS_TOKEN>,
});
let lastPage = 1;
let getStories = (page) => {
client
.get("cdn/stories", {
version: "draft",

page: page,
})
.then((res) => {
let stories = res.data.stories;
stories.forEach((story) => {
fs.writeFile(
"./backup/" + story.id + ".json",
JSON.stringify(story),
(err) => {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(story.full_slug + " backed up");
}
);
});
let total = res.total;
lastPage = Math.ceil(res.total / res.perPage);
if (page <= lastPage) {
page++;
getStories(page);
}
});

auth: {
username: 'username',
password: 'password'
}
}
const storyblok = new StoryblokClient({
...
https: false,
proxy: proxy
})Read more about proxy settings in axios documentation
How to define a custom schema for the RichTextRenderer
To define how to add some classes to specific html attributes rendered by the rich text renderer, you need your own schema definition. With this new schema, you can pass it as the richTextSchema option when instantiate the StoryblokClient class. You must follow the default schema to do this.
Below, you can check an example:
const StoryblokClient = require("storyblok-js-client");
// the default schema copied and updated
const MySchema = require("./my-schema");
let client = new StoryblokClient({
accessToken: <YOUR_SPACE_ACCESS_TOKEN>,
richTextSchema: MySchema,
});
client.richTextResolver.render(data);If you just want to change the way a specific tag is rendered you can import the default schema and extend it. Following an example that will render headlines with classes:
Instead of <p>Normal headline</p><h3><span class="margin-bottom-fdsafdsada">Styled headline</span></h3> it will render <p>Normal headline</p><h3 class="margin-bottom-fdsafdsada">Styled headline</h3>.
const RichTextResolver = require('storyblok-js-client/dist/richTextResolver')
const MySchema = require('storyblok-js-client/dist/schema')
MySchema.nodes.heading = function (node) {
let attrs = {}
if (
node.content &&
node.content.length === 1 &&
node.content[0].marks &&
node.content[0].marks.length === 1 &&
node.content[0].marks[0].type === 'styled'
) {
attrs = node.content[0].marks[0].attrs
delete node.content[0].marks
}
return {
tag: [
{
tag: `h${node.attrs.level}`,
attrs: attrs,
},
],
}
}
let rteResolver = new RichTextResolver(MySchema)
let rendered = rteResolver.render({
content: [
{
content: [
{
text: 'Normal headline',
type: 'text',
},
],
type: 'paragraph',
},
{
attrs: {
level: 3,
},
content: [
{
marks: [
{
attrs: {
class: 'margin-bottom-fdsafdsada',
},
type: 'styled',
},
],
text: 'Styled headline',
type: 'text',
},
],
type: 'heading',
},
],
type: 'doc',
})
