What is @aws-sdk/client-api-gateway?
@aws-sdk/client-api-gateway is a part of the AWS SDK for JavaScript, which allows developers to interact with the Amazon API Gateway service. This package provides a set of tools to create, deploy, and manage APIs at any scale.
What are @aws-sdk/client-api-gateway's main functionalities?
Create a new API
This feature allows you to create a new REST API in Amazon API Gateway. The code sample demonstrates how to create a new API named 'MyAPI' using the APIGatewayClient and CreateRestApiCommand.
const { APIGatewayClient, CreateRestApiCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-api-gateway');
const client = new APIGatewayClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const command = new CreateRestApiCommand({ name: 'MyAPI' });
client.send(command).then(
(data) => console.log(data),
(error) => console.error(error)
);
Deploy an API
This feature allows you to deploy an API to a specific stage. The code sample demonstrates how to deploy an API to the 'prod' stage using the APIGatewayClient and CreateDeploymentCommand.
const { APIGatewayClient, CreateDeploymentCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-api-gateway');
const client = new APIGatewayClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const command = new CreateDeploymentCommand({ restApiId: 'your-rest-api-id', stageName: 'prod' });
client.send(command).then(
(data) => console.log(data),
(error) => console.error(error)
);
Create a resource
This feature allows you to create a new resource under an existing API. The code sample demonstrates how to create a new resource named 'myresource' under a specified parent resource using the APIGatewayClient and CreateResourceCommand.
const { APIGatewayClient, CreateResourceCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-api-gateway');
const client = new APIGatewayClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const command = new CreateResourceCommand({ restApiId: 'your-rest-api-id', parentId: 'your-parent-id', pathPart: 'myresource' });
client.send(command).then(
(data) => console.log(data),
(error) => console.error(error)
);
Create a method
This feature allows you to create a new method for a resource. The code sample demonstrates how to create a GET method with no authorization for a specified resource using the APIGatewayClient and PutMethodCommand.
const { APIGatewayClient, PutMethodCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-api-gateway');
const client = new APIGatewayClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const command = new PutMethodCommand({ restApiId: 'your-rest-api-id', resourceId: 'your-resource-id', httpMethod: 'GET', authorizationType: 'NONE' });
client.send(command).then(
(data) => console.log(data),
(error) => console.error(error)
);
Other packages similar to @aws-sdk/client-api-gateway
serverless
The Serverless Framework is a popular open-source framework for building and deploying serverless applications. It supports multiple cloud providers, including AWS, and provides a higher-level abstraction for managing API Gateway resources. Compared to @aws-sdk/client-api-gateway, Serverless Framework offers more features and simplifies the deployment process but may not provide the same level of granular control.
aws-cdk
The AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) is an open-source software development framework for defining cloud infrastructure in code and provisioning it through AWS CloudFormation. It allows you to define API Gateway resources using higher-level constructs. Compared to @aws-sdk/client-api-gateway, AWS CDK provides a more abstracted and code-centric approach to managing infrastructure, making it easier to define and deploy complex architectures.
claudia
Claudia.js is a tool for deploying Node.js projects to AWS Lambda and API Gateway. It automates many of the deployment tasks and provides a simple way to create and manage APIs. Compared to @aws-sdk/client-api-gateway, Claudia.js focuses on simplifying the deployment process and is particularly well-suited for developers who want to quickly deploy serverless applications without dealing with the intricacies of API Gateway.
