Pixelbin Backend SDK for Javascript helps you integrate the core Pixelbin features with your application.

Getting Started

Getting started with Pixelbin Backend SDK for Javascript

Installation

npm install @pixelbin/admin --save

Usage

Quick Example

// import the PixelbinConfig and PixelbinClient
const { PixelbinConfig, PixelbinClient } = require("@pixelbin/admin");

// Create a config with you API_TOKEN
const config = new PixelbinConfig({
    domain: "https://api.pixelbin.io",
    apiSecret: "API_TOKEN",
    integrationPlatform: "YourAppName/1.0 (AppPlatform/2.0)", // this is optional
});

// Create a pixelbin instance
const pixelbin = new PixelbinClient(config);

async function getData() {
    try {
        // list the assets stored on your organization's Pixelbin Storage
        const explorer = pixelbin.assets.listFilesPaginator({
            onlyFiles: true,
            pageSize: 5,
        });
        while (explorer.hasNext()) {
            const { items, page } = await explorer.next();
            console.log(page.current); // 1
            console.log(page.hasNext); // false
            console.log(page.size); // 3
            console.log(items.length); // 3
        }
    } catch (err) {
        console.log(err);
    }
}

getData();

Uploader

upload

Uploads a file to PixelBin with greater control over the upload process.

Argument Type Required Description
file Buffer or Stream yes The file to be uploaded.
name string no Name of the file.
path string no Path of the containing folder.
format string no Format of the file.
access AccessEnum no Access level of the asset, can be either public-read or private.
tags [string] no Tags associated with the file.
metadata string no Metadata associated with the file.
overwrite boolean no Overwrite flag. If set to true, will overwrite any file that exists with the same path, name, and type. Defaults to false.
filenameOverride boolean no If set to true, will add unique characters to the name if an asset with the given name already exists. If the overwrite flag is set to true, preference will be given to the overwrite flag. If both are set to false, an error will be raised.
expiry number no Expiry time in seconds for the underlying signed URL. Defaults to 3000 seconds.
uploadOptions Object no Additional options for fine-tuning the upload process. Default: { chunkSize: 10 * 1024 * 1024, maxRetries: 2, concurrency: 3, exponentialFactor: 2 }
chunkSize number no Size of each chunk to upload. Default is 10 megabyte.
maxRetries number no Maximum number of retries if an upload fails. Default is 2 retries.
concurrency number no Number of concurrent chunk upload tasks. Default is 3 concurrent chunk uploads.
exponentialFactor number no The exponential factor for retry delay. Default is 2.

Integration Platform

The integrationPlatform parameter allows you to customize the User-Agent string in API requests. This helps in identifying the specific application or plugin making the request, useful for analytics and troubleshooting.

How to Use

Include the integrationPlatform in your Pixelbin configuration as shown above. The string should clearly identify your application or plugin and include version details as well as any platform your system is deployed on if applicable.

Syntax : Pixelbin{integration_name}/{integration_version} ({platform_name}/{platform_version})

For Uploading File Buffer

To upload a Buffer, originalFilename must be passed in the options object.

const { Readable } = require("stream");
const res = await pixelbin.assets.fileUpload({
    file: Readable.from(req.file.buffer),
    name: req.body.name,
    options: { originalFilename: req.file.originalname },
    overwrite: true,
});
