Introducing the Socket Python SDK
The initial version of the Socket Python SDK is now on PyPI, enabling developers to more easily interact with the Socket REST API in Python projects.
builder-util-runtime
Advanced tools
HTTP utilities. Used by [electron-builder](https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder).
The builder-util-runtime npm package provides a set of utility functions and classes that are commonly used in the context of building and packaging applications. It includes functionalities for handling HTTP requests, managing file systems, and other utilities that simplify the development process.
HTTP Requests
This feature allows you to make HTTP requests easily. The code sample demonstrates how to use the `httpExecutor` to make a GET request to a specified URL and log the response data.
const { httpExecutor } = require('builder-util-runtime');
async function fetchData(url) {
try {
const response = await httpExecutor.request({
url: url,
method: 'GET'
});
console.log('Data:', response.data);
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error fetching data:', error);
}
}
fetchData('https://api.example.com/data');
File System Utilities
This feature provides utilities for file system operations. The code sample shows how to use the `copyFile` function to copy a file from a source path to a destination path.
const { copyFile } = require('builder-util-runtime');
async function copyExampleFile() {
try {
await copyFile('source.txt', 'destination.txt');
console.log('File copied successfully');
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error copying file:', error);
}
}
copyExampleFile();
UUID Generation
This feature allows you to generate UUIDs. The code sample demonstrates how to generate a version 4 UUID using the `UUID` class.
const { UUID } = require('builder-util-runtime');
function generateUUID() {
const uuid = UUID.v4();
console.log('Generated UUID:', uuid);
}
generateUUID();
Axios is a popular HTTP client for making requests to servers. It provides a simple and easy-to-use API for handling HTTP requests and responses. Compared to builder-util-runtime, axios is more focused on HTTP functionalities and offers more features for handling requests and responses.
fs-extra is a package that extends the native Node.js file system module with additional methods. It provides more powerful and convenient file system operations compared to the basic utilities in builder-util-runtime. It includes methods for copying, moving, and removing files and directories, among others.
The uuid package is a dedicated library for generating UUIDs. It supports multiple versions of UUIDs and is widely used for generating unique identifiers. While builder-util-runtime includes basic UUID generation, the uuid package offers more comprehensive support and options for UUID generation.
