# GarchiCMS Node SDK (API wrapper)

This document provides details about Garchi CMS Node sdk and its example usage for managing data items, categories, spaces, reviews, reactions, page content, and many more. 
The SDK is a thin wrapper over the REST API [documented here](https://garchi.co.uk/docs/v2.openapi)



## Runtime and environment

- Target runtime: Node.js (ESM).
- Package name: @garchicms/garchi-node-sdk.
- Auth: API key via constructor or environment variable.

## Installation
Install the SDK using npm or yarn:

```bash
npm install @garchicms/garchi-node-sdk
```

## Initialization

Always initialize the SDK once and reuse it.

```ts
import GarchiCMS from "@garchicms/garchi-node-sdk";

const garchi = new GarchiCMS({
  api_key: process.env.GARCHI_API_KEY,
});
```

# Definitions

## Category Utility
```typescript
import { CreateCategoryParams, DeleteCategoryParams, GarchiCategory, UpdateCategoryParams } from "../../types";

⋮----
class Category extends APIClient
⋮----
async create(params: CreateCategoryParams) : Promise<GarchiCategory>
⋮----
async delete(params: DeleteCategoryParams) : Promise<string>
⋮----
async update(params: UpdateCategoryParams) : Promise<string>
⋮----
async getAll() : Promise<GarchiCategory[]>
```

## CompoundQuery Utility. 

This is useful for data items retrieval using compound query.

```typescript
import { CompoundQueryBody, GarchiCategoryAPIResponse, GarchiItemAPIResponse, GarchiReview, ItemsQueryParams, PaginatedResponse } from "../../types";

⋮----
class CompoundQuery extends APIClient
⋮----
async query(body: CompoundQueryBody, params: ItemsQueryParams) : Promise<GarchiItemAPIResponse | GarchiCategoryAPIResponse | 
    PaginatedResponse<GarchiReview>>
    {
        try {
            const response = await this.client.post(`/compound_query`, body, {

        }
catch (error: any)
⋮----
async addBlankSectionToPage(params: BlankSectionRequest) : Promise<BlankSectionResponse>
