@serve.zone/api

@serve.zone/api is the TypeScript client for Cloudly, the serve.zone control plane. It wraps the shared @serve.zone/interfaces contracts with a CloudlyApiClient that can authenticate, open a TypedSocket connection, receive server-pushed events, and call Cloudly management APIs from services, automation, and CLI-style tools.

What It Provides

The package exports one public entry point:

import { CloudlyApiClient } from '@serve.zone/api';

CloudlyApiClient provides:

• A TypedSocket client connected to Cloudly.
• A local TypedRouter for Cloudly-to-client callbacks.
• Identity helpers for token-based machine clients and username/password admin login.
• Domain-focused API groups for clusters, services, images, registries, secrets, platform bindings, backups, settings, tasks, domains, DNS, and deployments.
• RxJS subjects for pushed cluster config updates and server actions.

Quick Start

import { CloudlyApiClient } from '@serve.zone/api';

const cloudly = new CloudlyApiClient({
  registerAs: 'cli',
  cloudlyUrl: 'https://cloudly.example.com:443',
});

await cloudly.start();

await cloudly.loginWithUsernameAndPassword(
  process.env.CLOUDLY_USERNAME!,
  process.env.CLOUDLY_PASSWORD!
);

const services = await cloudly.services.getServices();

for (const service of services) {
  console.log(service.id, service.data.name, service.data.imageVersion);
}

cloudlyUrl defaults to process.env.CLOUDLY_URL and then https://cloudly.layer.io:443 when not supplied.

Authentication

Use loginWithUsernameAndPassword() for human/admin-style sessions. It talks to Cloudly's HTTP TypedRequest endpoint and stores the returned identity on the client.

const identity = await cloudly.loginWithUsernameAndPassword('[email protected]', 'password');
console.log(identity.role);

Use getIdentityByToken() for machine clients that already have a Cloudly token or jump code. This path uses the active TypedSocket connection, so call start() first.

const identity = await cloudly.getIdentityByToken(process.env.CLOUDLY_TOKEN!, {
  tagConnection: true,
  statefullIdentity: true,
});

Most API groups use cloudly.identity automatically. Pass identities explicitly only for methods that expose an identity argument.

API Groups

The client exposes focused groups instead of one large method list:

| Group | Purpose | | --- | --- | | cluster | Create, list, fetch, and update Cloudly clusters. | | services | Create, list, fetch, update, delete, and inspect service registry targets. | | deployments | List, create, update, restart, scale, and delete deployment records. | | image | Create image records, list images, and push or pull image versions. | | externalRegistry | Manage external container registries and verify registry access. | | secretbundle and secretgroup | Manage service-owned and shared secret groupings. | | platform | Read capabilities, provider configs, desired state, and service bindings. | | backup | Create, list, fetch, and restore service backups. | | settings | Read and update masked Cloudly settings and test provider connectivity. | | tasks | List tasks, inspect executions, trigger jobs, and cancel executions. | | domains and dns | Manage domain inventory, verification, DNS entries, and zones. |

Example service workflow:

const service = await cloudly.services.createService({
  name: 'api',
  description: 'Public API service',
  imageId: 'image-api',
  imageVersion: '1.0.0',
  environment: {
    NODE_ENV: 'production',
  },
  secretBundleId: 'secretbundle-api',
  serviceCategory: 'workload',
  deploymentStrategy: 'limited-replicas',
  scaleFactor: 2,
  balancingStrategy: 'round-robin',
  ports: {
    web: 3000,
  },
  domains: [
    {
      name: 'api',
      protocol: 'https',
    },
  ],
  deploymentIds: [],
});

const registryTarget = await service.getRegistryTarget('latest');

Example platform-binding workflow:

const capabilities = await cloudly.platform.getPlatformCapabilities();
const emailBindings = await cloudly.platform.getPlatformBindings({
  capability: 'email',
});

console.log(capabilities.capabilities, emailBindings.bindings);

Server-Pushed Events

Cloudly can call back into connected clients through the client's local TypedRouter. Two callback streams are exposed as RxJS subjects:

cloudly.configUpdateSubject.subscribe((configUpdate) => {
  console.log('received cluster config update', configUpdate.configData.id);
});

cloudly.serverActionSubject.subscribe((serverAction) => {
  console.log('received server action', serverAction.actionName);
});

This is why long-running clients such as Coreflow register over TypedSocket instead of using one-off HTTP requests only.

Transport Notes

The client is WebSocket-first. Some newer management methods include HTTP TypedRequest fallback through /typedrequest, but many model methods still require an active typedsocketClient. For reliable behavior, call start() before using API groups unless the method explicitly documents HTTP-only behavior, such as loginWithUsernameAndPassword().

Development

pnpm install
pnpm run build
pnpm test

The package is authored as ESM TypeScript and built with tsbuild tsfolders --allowimplicitany.
