What is @aws-sdk/client-amplify?
@aws-sdk/client-amplify is a part of the AWS SDK for JavaScript, which allows developers to interact with AWS Amplify, a service for building and deploying mobile and web applications. This package provides methods to manage Amplify apps, branches, domains, and webhooks.
What are @aws-sdk/client-amplify's main functionalities?
Create an Amplify App
This feature allows you to create a new Amplify app by specifying the app name, repository, and platform. The code sample demonstrates how to use the CreateAppCommand to create an app.
const { AmplifyClient, CreateAppCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-amplify');
const client = new AmplifyClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const createApp = async () => {
const params = {
name: 'MyAmplifyApp',
repository: 'https://github.com/my-repo',
platform: 'WEB'
};
const command = new CreateAppCommand(params);
const response = await client.send(command);
console.log(response);
};
createApp();
List Amplify Apps
This feature allows you to list all the Amplify apps in your account. The code sample demonstrates how to use the ListAppsCommand to retrieve and print the list of apps.
const { AmplifyClient, ListAppsCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-amplify');
const client = new AmplifyClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const listApps = async () => {
const command = new ListAppsCommand({});
const response = await client.send(command);
console.log(response.apps);
};
listApps();
Create a Branch
This feature allows you to create a new branch in an existing Amplify app. The code sample demonstrates how to use the CreateBranchCommand to create a branch.
const { AmplifyClient, CreateBranchCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-amplify');
const client = new AmplifyClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const createBranch = async () => {
const params = {
appId: 'd1e2f3g4h5',
branchName: 'new-feature-branch'
};
const command = new CreateBranchCommand(params);
const response = await client.send(command);
console.log(response);
};
createBranch();
Delete an Amplify App
This feature allows you to delete an existing Amplify app. The code sample demonstrates how to use the DeleteAppCommand to delete an app by specifying its appId.
const { AmplifyClient, DeleteAppCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-amplify');
const client = new AmplifyClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const deleteApp = async () => {
const params = {
appId: 'd1e2f3g4h5'
};
const command = new DeleteAppCommand(params);
const response = await client.send(command);
console.log(response);
};
deleteApp();
Other packages similar to @aws-sdk/client-amplify
aws-amplify
The aws-amplify package is a comprehensive library that provides a declarative interface for interacting with AWS services, including Amplify. It offers higher-level abstractions and is designed to be used in front-end applications, making it easier to integrate AWS services without deep knowledge of the underlying APIs.
serverless
The serverless package is a framework for building and deploying serverless applications on AWS and other cloud providers. While it is not specific to Amplify, it provides tools for managing AWS resources, including Lambda functions, API Gateway, and DynamoDB, which can be used in conjunction with Amplify for a full-stack serverless application.
aws-cdk
The aws-cdk (AWS Cloud Development Kit) is a framework for defining cloud infrastructure using code. It allows you to define AWS resources using familiar programming languages like TypeScript, Python, and Java. While it is more focused on infrastructure as code, it can be used to define and manage Amplify resources as part of a larger infrastructure setup.
