TypeScript

The TypeScript SDK uses the same antd package as JavaScript and ships its own type definitions.

Install

npm install antd

Connect to the daemon

import { RestClient, createClient, type RestClientOptions } from "antd";

const client = createClient();

const options: RestClientOptions = {
  baseUrl: "http://localhost:8082",
  timeout: 60_000,
};

const directClient = new RestClient(options);

Store and retrieve data

import { createClient, type PutResult } from "antd";

async function main(): Promise<void> {
  const client = createClient();
  const result: PutResult = await client.dataPutPublic(Buffer.from("Hello from TypeScript!"));
  console.log(result.address);

  const data: Buffer = await client.dataGetPublic(result.address);
  console.log(data.toString());
}

main().catch((error) => {
  console.error(error);
  process.exit(1);
});

Type mappings

Autonomi type	TypeScript type
HealthStatus	{ ok: boolean; network: string }

WalletAddress	{ address: string }
WalletBalance	{ balance: string; gasBalance: string }
PrepareUploadResult	typed object exported from antd
FinalizeUploadResult	{ address: string; chunksStored: number }
Raw data	Buffer

Error handling

import { NotFoundError, PaymentError, createClient } from "antd";

async function main(): Promise<void> {
  const client = createClient();

  try {
    await client.dataGetPublic("nonexistent");
  } catch (error) {
    if (error instanceof NotFoundError) {
      console.log("Not found");
    } else if (error instanceof PaymentError) {
      console.log("Insufficient funds");
    } else {
      throw error;
    }
  }
}

main().catch((error) => {
  console.error(error);
  process.exit(1);
});
