SDK

At the SDK page you can automatically generate an SDK or models for your API. To start the generator you can simply login to the backend and go to the Consumer / SDK panel. There you can click on the generate button, this generates the SDK and writes it to the public/ folder, after this you can download the generated SDK.

CLI​

Besides the backend you can also generate the SDK through the following CLI command.

php bin/fusio generate:sdk --filter=frontend

Filter​

The filter argument specifies which operations are included at the SDK.

app​

The app filter only includes the operations which you have created at the backend, it does not contain any Fusio specific operations.

frontend​

The frontend filter contains all operations which you have created at the backend and all consumer operations. This is needed if you want to integrate the developer portal into your app.

fusio​

The fusio filter contains all Fusio internal backend and consumer operations.

TypeHub​

If you like to create an infrastructure where you automatically update all your client SDKs if your API changes you can use our TypeHub platform. The TypeHub platform is a central place to host your API specification which then can also trigger other repos to generate SDKs

Publish​

The first step would be to create an GitHub action typehub.yml at your Fusio repository to automatically publish the specification of your Fusio instance to TypeHub s.

name: TypeHub
on:
  - pull_request
  - push
jobs:
  push:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Push
        uses: apioo/typehub-fusio-action@v0.1.4
        with:
          document: marketplace
          client-id: ${{ secrets.TYPEHUB_CLIENT_ID }}
          client-secret: ${{ secrets.TYPEHUB_CLIENT_SECRET }}
          filter: app

You can also take a look at our GitHub workflow which we use internally to publish the Fusio SDK.

Trigger​

The next step is to configure a trigger at your TypeHub document to call a specific GitHub action at your concrete SDK repository. I.e. for the Fusio SDK we have configured the following trigger for each supported language.

Generate​

The last step is to create an SDK repository for the language which you like to support and add a fitting sdkgen.yml workflow. For a javascript SDK the workflow would look like:

name: SDKgen
on:
  workflow_dispatch:
    inputs:
      typehub_message:
        description: "The TypeHub commit message on commit"
        required: false
      typehub_version:
        description: "The TypeHub version on tag"
        required: false
      typehub_changelog:
        description: "The TypeHub changelog on tag"
        required: false
permissions:
  contents: 'write'
jobs:
  generate:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - uses: apioo/sdkgen-generator-action@v0.2.1
        with:
          client_id: '${{ secrets.SDKGEN_CLIENT_ID }}'
          client_secret: '${{ secrets.SDKGEN_CLIENT_SECRET }}'
          typehub_message: '${{ inputs.typehub_message }}'
          typehub_version: '${{ inputs.typehub_version }}'
          typehub_changelog: '${{ inputs.typehub_changelog }}'
  publish:
    if: "${{ inputs.typehub_version != '' }}"
    needs: generate
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v3
        with:
          node-version: '16.x'
          registry-url: 'https://registry.npmjs.org'
      - run: npm version ${{ inputs.typehub_version }} --no-git-tag-version
      - run: npm install
      - run: npm run build
      - run: npm publish --access public
        env:
          NODE_AUTH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.NPM_TOKEN }}

Every Fusio SDK contains such a workflow and if we create a tag on the TypeHub platform we automatically update and tag every SDK, which makes the handling of multiple SDKs really easy.

SDKgen​

Fusio has integrated support for SDKgen which provides additional SDK generators to support different SDK programming languages like Java or C#. To add support for those additional languages you can easily register at SDKgen and enter your app credentials to the SDKGEN_CLIENT_ID and SDKGEN_CLIENT_SECRET at the .env file, then you automatically see those additional generator options at the backend.
