JavaScript

Publish and manage content from Node or the browser

The JavaScript SDK works in Node 18+ and modern browsers. It ships with TypeScript types out of the box.

Install

npm install @firmreader/sdk

Initialize the client

import { Firmreader } from "@firmreader/sdk";

const client = new Firmreader({
  apiKey: process.env.FIRMREADER_API_KEY, // fr_live_...
});

Create a post

const post = await client.posts.create({
  channelId: "ch_company_news",
  title: "Welcome to Firmreader",
  body: "We're excited to announce our new internal communications platform.",
  priority: "normal",
});

console.log(`Published post ${post.id}`);

List posts

const { data: posts } = await client.posts.list({
  channelId: "ch_company_news",
  limit: 20,
});

for (const post of posts) {
  console.log(post.title);
}

Handle errors

The client throws FirmreaderError for non-2xx responses. Inspect status and code to branch on the failure.

import { FirmreaderError } from "@firmreader/sdk";

try {
  await client.posts.create({ channelId: "ch_invalid", title: "Hi", body: "..." });
} catch (err) {
  if (err instanceof FirmreaderError) {
    console.error(`${err.status}: ${err.code}`);
  }
}

All write methods are idempotent when you pass an idempotencyKey option, so retries won't create duplicate posts.
