@theo-dev/airtable-connect v0.2.32

Airtable Configuration

This package is used to configure the Airtable integration for your project.

New Features!

In this version, you can now use readByID function to get a record by ID. I work on a new version to add more features. If you have any suggestions, please contact me.

Getting Started

Installation

npm install --save @theo-dev/airtable-connect

Create a .env file in the root of your project and add the following:

# If you use React, you can add the following to your .env file
REACT_APP_AIRTABLE_PERSONNAL_TOKEN=
REACT_APP_AIRTABLE_BASE_ID=

# If you use Vite, you can add the following to your .env file
VITE_AIRTABLE_PERSONNAL_TOKEN=
VITE_AIRTABLE_BASE_ID=

Usage

• Connection to Airtable

  // If you create a .env file, you can use the following code to connect to Airtable
  import { AirtableConnect } from "@theo-dev/airtable-connect";
  
  const { AirtableData } = AirtableConnect;
  
  const tableInstance = new AirtableData(
    "Table Name",
    "View Name (optional if you want to use the default view)"
  );

  // If you don't create a .env file, you can use the following code to connect to Airtable
  import { AirtableConnect } from "@theo-dev/airtable-connect";
  
  const { AirtableConfig, AirtableData } = AirtableConnect;
  
  AirtableConfig.getBase("Personnal Token", "Base ID");
  
  const tableInstance = new AirtableData(
    "Table Name",
    "View Name (optional if you want to use the default view)"
  );

• Retrieving Datas

  Add function in parameter of read function to get datas like this:

  let datas = [];
  
  tableInstance.read({
    action: (dataset) => {
      datas = dataset;
    },
    completedOnly: true, // optional - if you want to get only completed records
  });

• Retrieving data by ID

  Add function in parameter of readByID function to get data like this:

  let data = null;
  
  tableInstance.readByID({
    id: "RECORD_ID",
    action: (dataset) => {
      data = dataset;
    },
  });

• Creating Data

  // Create a record
  
  tableInstance.create({
    datas: { "Field Name": "Field Value" },
  }); // return nothing just create the record

  You can also add function in parameter of create function to get the data like this:

  let newRecord = [];
  
  tableInstance.create({
    datas: { "Field Name": "Field Value" },
    action: (record) => {
      newRecord = record;
    },
  }); // return nothing just create the record and add the new record in newRecord variable

• Updating Data

  // Update a record
  tableInstance.update({
    datas: { id: "ExampleID", fields: { FieldName: "Field Value" } },
  }); // return nothing just update the record
  
  // Update multiple records
  
  const records = [
    {
      id: "ExampleID",
      fields: { FieldName: "Field Value" },
    },
    {
      id: "ExampleID",
      fields: { FieldName: "Field Value" },
    },
  ];
  
  tableInstance.update({
    datas: records,
  }); // return nothing just update records

  You can also add function in parameter of update function to get the data like this:

  let updatedRecord = [];
  
  tableInstance.update({
    datas: { id: "ExampleID", fields: { FieldName: "Field Value" } },
    action: (record) => {
      updatedRecord = record;
    },
  });

• Deleting Data

  Add function in parameter of delete function to get the deleted data like this:

  let deletedRecord = [];
  
  tableInstance.delete({
    id: "ExampleID",
    action: (record) => {
      deletedRecord = record;
    },
  });
