Appwrite Typescript

This wraps the Appwrite TypeScript SDK for client and server use cases. You get auth flows (email, OAuth, anonymous), database queries with the newer TablesDB class, file storage, and real-time subscriptions. The skill covers React Native OAuth gotchas (you need createOAuth2Token with deep linking, not createOAuth2Session), string column types like varchar versus text for row size planning, and the object-params calling style the SDK now prefers. Useful if you're wiring up Appwrite in a web app, mobile project, or Node backend and want the common patterns in one place without digging through docs.

Setting Up the Client

Client-side (Web / React Native)

// Web
import { Client, Account, TablesDB, Storage, ID, Query } from 'appwrite';

// React Native
import { Client, Account, TablesDB, Storage, ID, Query } from 'react-native-appwrite';

const client = new Client()
    .setEndpoint('https://<REGION>.cloud.appwrite.io/v1')
    .setProject('[PROJECT_ID]');

Server-side (Node.js / Deno)

import { Client, Users, TablesDB, Storage, Functions, ID, Query } from 'node-appwrite';

const client = new Client()
    .setEndpoint('https://<REGION>.cloud.appwrite.io/v1')
    .setProject(process.env.APPWRITE_PROJECT_ID)
    .setKey(process.env.APPWRITE_API_KEY);

Code Examples

Authentication (client-side)

const account = new Account(client);

// Email signup
await account.create({
    userId: ID.unique(),
    email: 'user@example.com',
    password: 'password123',
    name: 'User Name'
});
