An easy way to interact with Zipper Applets from anywhere that supports ESM, CommonJS, or TypeScript.

To install into your project, use your favorite package manager to add it to your dependencies. (You don't have to do this step if you're importing from URL.)

$ yarn add @zipper-inc/client-js

# or

$ npm i @zipper-inc/client-js

And add it to your TypeScript or JavaScript files.

// ESM
import { initApplet } from '@zipper-inc/client-js';

// CommonJS
var initApplet = require('@zipper-inc/client-js').initApplet;

Just import from URL.

import { initApplet } from 'https://deno.land/x/zipper-client-js/mod.ts';

Easily use an Applet's built-in API to interact with it as if it was a part of your project. Inputs work just like any function on Zipper.

Use the Crontab AI Generator in an admin panel.

await initApplet('crontab-ai-generator').run({ text: 'once a day' });

// 0 0 * * *

Fork an example applet like the Feature Flags Example, put it behind auth to protect your team's data, and use it your own repo.

const ff = initApplet('acme-org-feature-flags', {
  token: ACCESS_TOKEN,
});

// get a feature flag value
const liveOnProd = await ff.path('get').run({
  name: 'flag_new_drops',
  context: 'prod',
});

// flip a value programatically
await ff.path('set').run({
  name: 'flag_new_prototype',
  context: 'dev',
  value: true,
});

Anything an applet can do, your app can do.

Zipper is under active development, so issues are expected! It might be helpful to use the debug mode to console log verbosely so you can see whats going on.

Just pass the debug option when initializing your applet to turn this one.

const myApp = initApplet('my-applet', { debug: true });

Let us know what your console output looks like when submitting an issue. PRs are also always welcome, see the next section.

Zipper is under active development, so contributions are always welcome.

Since this repo is written in Deno, you must have Deno installed.
