Installation

We recommend using this SDK as part of the overall @vonage/server-sdk package. Please see the main package for installation.

You can also use this SDK standalone if you only need access to just the Accounts API.

With NPM

npm install @vonage/accounts

With Yarn

yarn add @vonage/accounts

Usage

As part of the Vonage Server SDK

If you are using this SDK as part of the Vonage Server SDK, you can access it as the accounts property off of the client that you instantiate.

const { Vonage } = require('@vonage/server-sdk');

const vonage = new Vonage(
  {
    apiKey: API_KEY,
    apiSecret: API_SECRET,
    privateKey: PRIVATE_KEY_PATH,
    signatureSecret: SIGNATURE_SECRET,
    signatureMethod: SIGNATURE_METHOD
  },
  options
);

const balance = await vonage.accounts.getBalance();

Standalone

The SDK can be used standalone from the main Vonage Server SDK for Node.js if you only need to use the Account APIs. All you need to do is require('@vonage/account'), and use the returned object to create your own client.

const { Auth } = require('@vonage/auth');
const { Accounts } = require('@vonage/account');

const credentials = new Auth({
  apiKey: API_KEY,
  apiSecret: API_SECRET,
});

const options = {}

const accountClient = new Accounts(credentials, options);

credentials is any option from @vonage/auth, and options is any option from @vonage/server-client

Promises

Most methods that interact with the Vonage API uses Promises. You can either resolve these yourself, or use await to wait for a response.

const balance = await accountClient.getBalance();

accountClient.getBalance()
  .then(resp => console.log(resp))
  .catch(err => console.error(err));

Testing

Run:

npm run test
