import { PdfService } from '@pdfless/pdfless-js';

async function main(): Promise<void> {
  try {
    // Create the Pdf service
    const pdfService = = new PdfService("ak_xxxxxxxxxxxxx");
    
    // Generate PDF with sample payload in JSON
    const payload: GeneratePDFCommand = {
        firstName: "Nicolas",
        lastName: "Law",
        companyName: "Synapsium",
        articles: [
            { name: "tshirt", price: 10, quantity: 4 },
            { name: "short", price: 20, quantity: 1 }
        ]
    };
    const generatePDFCommand = { 
        template_id: "XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX",
        payload: JSON.stringify(payload)
    }
    pdfService.generate(generatePDFCommand);
  } catch (err) {
    console.log(err);
  }
}

main();

Get workspace information

You can use this function to check if your workspace exists or already available.

Import WorkspaceService as a default import and instantiate it as new WorkspaceService(apiKey) with your workspace API key.

import { WorkspaceService } from '@pdfless/pdfless-js';

async function main(): Promise<void> {
  try {
    // Create the Workspace service
    const workspaceService = = new WorkspaceService("ak_xxxxxxxxxxxxx");
    
    // Get workspace information 
    workspaceService.get();
  } catch (err) {
    console.log(err);
  }
}

main();

List document templates

Import TemplateService as a default import and instantiate it as new TemplateService(apiKey) with your workspace API key.

import { TemplateService } from '@pdfless/pdfless-js';


async function main(): Promise<void> {
  try {
    // Create the Template service
    const templateService = = new TemplateService("ak_xxxxxxxxxxxxx");
    
    // List template of current workspace
    templateService.list(1, 50);
  } catch (err) {
    console.log(err);
  }
}

main();
