invites

Standalone API, SDK, and web console for managing invite codes.

Private betas

This software is intended for private beta access to SaaS.

Running a private beta with a controlled, trusted group helps you validate your idea and surface early bug reports before going viral. By limiting access, you can ensure a higher quality experience for your initial users and iterate quickly based on direct feedback.

Develop

Prerequisites

Install Deno on your system.

Tasks

Run the following commands to develop:

• deno task start: Start the API server and admin console.
• deno task test: Run the tests.

Usage

Admin console

The admin console is hosted directly by the API server. You can access it by navigating to your API's root URL (e.g., http://localhost:8000/v1/invites) in a web browser. The server will detect your browser's request for HTML and serve the console.

Deployment

This project is designed to be multi-instance. To deploy your own instance of the invites API:

1. Fork the repository: Create a new repository by forking this one. Name it based on your project (e.g., my-project-invites).
2. Create a Deno Deploy project: Go to the Deno Deploy console, create a new project, and provision a Deno KV database, and connect it to your project.
3. Deploy: Connect your forked repository to the new Deno Deploy project. Deno Deploy will automatically deploy the API for you.

Tip

You can set an API_KEY environment variable in the Deno Deploy console to protect your API. If set, all requests must include an X-Api-Key header with the corresponding value.

SDK

You can use the SDK to interact with your invites API.

import { InvitesSdk } from "@fartlabs/invites/sdk";

const sdk = new InvitesSdk({
  baseUrl: "https://my-project-invites.deno.dev",
  apiKey: "optional-api-key", // Include this if API_KEY is set on the server.
});

// Create a new invite with a custom ID.
const invite = await sdk.create({
  alphabet: "1234567890abcdef",
  size: 10,
});
console.log(invite); // e.g., { code: "4f90d13a42", ... }

// List invites.
const { items } = await sdk.list();
console.log(items);
