Installation

You can install the package using npm or yarn:

or

yarn add @kernelminds/scailo-sdk

Getting Started & Usage

To communicate with the Scailo API, you'll need to instantiate a client, authenticate to receive a token, and then include that token in the metadata of all subsequent API calls.

1. Create a Transport

• For Web

import { createConnectTransport } from "@connectrpc/connect-web";

function getWebTransport(apiEndPoint: string = location.origin) {
    return createConnectTransport({
        baseUrl: apiEndPoint, useBinaryFormat: false, interceptors: []
    });
}

• For Node

import { createConnectTransport } from "@connectrpc/connect-node";

function getNodeTransport(apiEndPoint: string) {
    return createConnectTransport({
        baseUrl: apiEndPoint, httpVersion: "1.1", useBinaryFormat: false, interceptors: []
    });
}

2. Authentication

Next, you need to call the login service to get an auth_token. This token is essential for authorizing other API requests.

import { getScailoClientForLoginService, UserLoginRequest } from "@kernelminds/scailo-sdk";

// The address of your Scailo instance
const upstreamAPI = "https://your-scailo-instance.com";
const username = "your-username";
const password = "your-password";

const transport = getWebTransport(upstreamAPI);

async function authenticate() {
    try {
        const client = getScailoClientForLoginService(transport)
        const loginResp = await client.loginAsEmployeePrimary(new UserLoginRequest({
            username: username,
            plainTextPassword: password,
            otp: otp,
            expiresIn: expiresIn || protoInt64.zero
        }), {
            headers: {}
        });
        return loginResp
    } catch (error) {
        console.error("Authentication failed:", error.message);
    }
}

authenticate();

3. Making Authenticated Requests

Once you have the authToken, you must include it in the metadata of your API calls. The following example demonstrates how to fetch purchase orders using the token you received.

import { getScailoClientForPurchasesOrdersService, PurchasesOrdersServiceFilterReq, BOOL_FILTER, SORT_ORDER } from "@kernelminds/scailo-sdk";
import { protoInt64 } from "@bufbuild/protobuf";

const transport = getWebTransport(upstreamAPI);

async function getPurchaseOrders(authToken: string) {
    try {
        const purchaseOrdersClient = getScailoClientForPurchasesOrdersService(transport);
        const resp = await purchaseOrdersClient.filter(new PurchasesOrdersServiceFilterReq({
            isActive: BOOL_FILTER.BOOL_FILTER_TRUE,
            count: protoInt64.parse(5),
        }), {
            headers: {
                "auth_token": authToken
            }
        });
        console.log("Successfully fetched purchase orders:", response.list);
        return response.list;

    } catch (error) {
        console.error("Failed to fetch purchase orders:", error.message);
    }
}

// Example usage:
async function run() {
    const loginResp = await authenticate();
    if (loginResp.authToken) {
        await getPurchaseOrders(loginResp.authToken);
    }
}

run();

API Use Cases

The Scailo API is extensive and allows you to build powerful integrations. Some common use cases include:

• E-commerce Integration: Sync orders, customer data, and inventory levels between Scailo and platforms like Shopify or WooCommerce.

• Automate Business Processes: Automatically transfer data from a CRM or Warehouse Management System (WMS) directly into the ERP.

• Financial Management: Connect Scailo with accounting systems to automate invoice generation and financial reporting.

• Custom Workflows: Build custom applications and workflows tailored to your specific business logic.
