Prezly JavaScript SDK ​

Getting started ​

sh
npm install --save @prezly/sdk
# or yarn
yarn add @prezly/sdk

Using the code ​

Using ES Modules:

js
import { createPrezlyClient } from '@prezly/sdk';

const prezlyClient = createPrezlyClient({
    accessToken: 'your-access-token',
});

Or Using CommonJS:

js
const { createPrezlyClient } = require('@prezly/sdk').default;

const prezlyClient = createPrezlyClient({
    accessToken: 'your-access-token',
});

Requirements ​

API token ​

At this moment, the UI does not support issuing API tokens. Please contact support to issue one for you.

fetch API support ​

@prezly/sdk is using fetch to create requests. We assume that the environment running the code supports it.

We understand that some of the environments, such as node.js or old browsers, do not support fetch. This can be resolved by including a polyfill.

Polyfilling in browsers using whatwg-fetch ​

sh
npm install --save whatwg-fetch
# or yarn
yarn add whatwg-fetch
js
import 'whatwg-fetch';
// ...
import { createPrezlyClient } from '@prezly/sdk';

We recommend referring to the official whatwg-fetch module documentation for more information.

Polyfilling in browsers using node-fetch ​

sh
npm install --save node-fetch
# or yarn
yarn add node-fetch
js
global.fetch = require('node-fetch');
// ...
const { createPrezlyClient } = require('@prezly/sdk');

We recommend referring to the official node-fetch module documentation for more information.

Platform-agnostic polyfill using cross-fetch ​

sh
npm install --save cross-fetch
# or yarn
yarn add cross-fetch

Using ES Modules:

js
import 'cross-fetch/polyfill';
// ...
import { createPrezlyClient } from '@prezly/sdk';

Or Using CommonJS:

js
require('cross-fetch/polyfill');
// ...
const { createPrezlyClient } = require('@prezly/sdk');

We recommend referring to the official cross-fetch module documentation for more information.

Custom fetch implementation ​

Additionally, you can initialize the API client with your own implementation of fetch:

js
import { createPrezlyClient } = from '@prezly/sdk';

const prezlyClient = createPrezlyClient({
    accessToken: 'your-access-token',
    fetch: customFetch,
});
