Usage

Declare your API with zodios

import { Zodios } from "zodios";
import { z } from "zod";

const apiClient = new Zodios(
  "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com",
  // API definition
  [
    {
      method: "get",
      path: "/users/:id", // auto detect :id and ask for it in apiClient get params
      description: "Get a user",
      response: z.object({
        id: z.number(),
        name: z.string(),
      }),
    },
  ] as const,
);
//   typed                     auto-complete url   auto-complete params
//     ▼                               ▼                   ▼
const user = await apiClient.get("/users/:id", { params: { id: 7 } });
console.log(user);
// Output: { id: 7, name: 'Kurtis Weissnat' }

Use token provider plugin

Zodios comes with a plugin to inject and renew your tokens :

  import { pluginToken } from 'zodios/plugins/token';

  apiClient.use(pluginToken({
    getToken: async () => "token"
  }));

Get underlying axios instance

you can get back the underlying axios instance to customize it.

const axiosInstance = apiClient.axios;

Give your own axios intance to zodios

you can instanciate zodios with your own axios intance.

const apiClient = new Zodios(
  "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com",
  [ ... ] as const,
  // Optional Axios instance
  {
    axiosIntance: customAxiosInstance
  }
);

Disable zodios response validation

const apiClient = new Zodios(
  "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com",
  [ ... ] as const,
  // Disable validation
  {
    validateResponse: false
  }
);
