# @apiclient.xyz/bookstack

A fully-typed TypeScript API client for [BookStack](https://www.bookstackapp.com/) — the open-source wiki and documentation platform. Covers the entire BookStack REST API with rich domain objects, auto-pagination, and export support.

## Issue Reporting and Security

For reporting bugs, issues, or security vulnerabilities, please visit [community.foss.global/](https://community.foss.global/). This is the central community hub for all issue reporting. Developers who sign and comply with our contribution agreement and go through identification can also get a [code.foss.global/](https://code.foss.global/) account to submit Pull Requests directly.

## Install

```bash
pnpm install @apiclient.xyz/bookstack
```

## Quick Start

```typescript
import { BookStackAccount } from '@apiclient.xyz/bookstack';

const bookstack = new BookStackAccount(
  'https://your-bookstack-instance.com',
  'your-token-id',
  'your-token-secret',
);

// 🔌 Test the connection
const result = await bookstack.testConnection();
console.log(result); // { ok: true }

// 📚 List all books
const books = await bookstack.getBooks();

// 📄 Create a page
const page = await bookstack.createPage({
  name: 'Getting Started',
  book_id: 1,
  markdown: '# Welcome\nThis is your first page.',
});
```

## Authentication

BookStack uses token-based authentication. Generate an API token from your BookStack user profile under **API Tokens**. You'll get a **Token ID** and a **Token Secret** — pass both to the constructor:

```typescript
const bookstack = new BookStackAccount(
  'https://wiki.example.com',  // Your BookStack instance URL
  'Fpa7dZR2uJcAT86RmoyLrn5',  // Token ID
  'OjrMXAjjvxndbhk2hYAuUJk',  // Token Secret
);
```

The user must have the **"Access System API"** role permission enabled in BookStack.

## 📖 Content Hierarchy

BookStack organizes content in a clear hierarchy. The client mirrors this with rich domain objects:

```
📚 Shelves
 └── 📕 Books
      └── 📂 Chapters (optional)
           └── 📄 Pages
      └── 📄 Pages (directly in book)
```

Each entity class holds a reference back to the account, so you can navigate the hierarchy fluently.

## API Reference

### 📕 Books

// List all books (auto-paginated)
const books = await bookstack.getBooks();

// Get a single book

  name: 'Engineering Docs',
  description: 'Internal engineering documentation',
  tags: [{ name: 'team', value: 'backend' }],
});

// Update & delete (via the domain object)
const updated = await book.update({ name: 'Updated Title' });
await book.delete();

// Navigate to children
const chapters = await book.getChapters();
const pages = await book.getPages();

// Export
const html = await book.export('html');       // string

const markdown = await book.export('markdown'); // string
```

### 📂 Chapters

```typescript
const chapters = await bookstack.getChapters();
const chapter = await bookstack.getChapter(1);

const newChapter = await bookstack.createChapter({
  book_id: 1,
  name: 'Architecture',

});

// Navigate to pages within this chapter
const pages = await chapter.getPages();
const page = await chapter.createPage({
  name: 'Overview',
  markdown: '# Architecture Overview',
});

// Export
const text = await chapter.export('plaintext');
```

### 📄 Pages

```typescript

// Create in a book or chapter
const page1 = await bookstack.createPage({
  book_id: 1,
  name: 'Quick Start',
  markdown: '# Getting Started\n...',
});

const page2 = await bookstack.createPage({
  chapter_id: 3,
  name: 'API Reference',
  html: '<h1>API Reference</h1><p>...</p>',
});

// Update content
const updated = await page.update({
  markdown: '# Updated Content',
});

const comments = await page.getComments();
await page.addComment({ html: '<p>Looks good!</p>' });

// Export
const md = await page.export('markdown');
```

### 📚 Shelves

```typescript
const shelves = await bookstack.getShelves();
const shelf = await bookstack.getShelf(1);

const newShelf = await bookstack.createShelf({
  name: 'Backend Services',
  description: 'All backend service documentation',
  books: [1, 2, 3], // Array of book IDs
});

// Get books on this shelf
const books = await shelf.getBooks();

// Update book assignments
await shelf.update({ books: [1, 2, 3, 4] });
```

### 🔍 Search

```typescript
const results = await bookstack.search('deployment guide');
// Returns: IBookStackSearchResult[] with id, name, type, url, preview_html
```

### 📎 Attachments

const attachments = await bookstack.getAttachments();
const attachment = await bookstack.getAttachment(1);

// Create a link attachment
const link = await bookstack.createAttachment({
  name: 'External Reference',
  uploaded_to: 1, // Page ID
  link: 'https://example.com/docs',
});

await bookstack.updateAttachment(1, { name: 'Renamed' });
await bookstack.deleteAttachment(1);
```

### 💬 Comments

```typescript
const comments = await bookstack.getComments();
const comment = await bookstack.getComment(1);

await bookstack.createComment({
  page_id: 1,
  html: '<p>Great article!</p>',
  reply_to: 2, // Reply to comment with local_id 2
});

```

### 👥 Users & Roles

```typescript
// Users
const users = await bookstack.getUsers();
const user = await bookstack.getUser(1);
const newUser = await bookstack.createUser({
  name: 'Jane Doe',
  email: 'jane@example.com',
  roles: [1, 2],
  send_invite: true,
});
await bookstack.updateUser(1, { name: 'Jane Smith' });
await bookstack.deleteUser(1, { migrate_ownership_id: 2 });

// Roles
const roles = await bookstack.getRoles();
const role = await bookstack.getRole(1);
await bookstack.createRole({
  display_name: 'Editor',
  description: 'Can edit content',
  permissions: ['page-update', 'chapter-update'],
});
```

### 📊 Admin Endpoints

```typescript
// System info
const info = await bookstack.getSystemInfo();
// { version, instance_id, app_name, base_url }

// Audit log
const logs = await bookstack.getAuditLog();

// Recycle bin
const deleted = await bookstack.getRecycleBinItems();
await bookstack.restoreRecycleBinItem(1);  // { restore_count: 3 }
await bookstack.destroyRecycleBinItem(1);  // { delete_count: 3 }

// Content permissions
const perms = await bookstack.getContentPermissions('book', 1);
await bookstack.updateContentPermissions('book', 1, {
  owner_id: 2,
  role_permissions: [
    { role_id: 1, view: true, create: true, update: true, delete: false },
  ],
  fallback_permissions: { inheriting: true },
});
```

## Auto-Pagination

All list methods automatically paginate through results. BookStack uses offset-based pagination (max 500 per request). The client handles this transparently:

```typescript
// Gets ALL books, regardless of how many exist
const allBooks = await bookstack.getBooks();

// Pass options to control pagination behavior
const firstPage = await bookstack.getBooks({ offset: 0, count: 10 });

// Sort and filter
const filtered = await bookstack.getBooks({
  sort: '+name',
  filter: { 'name:like': '%Guide%' },
});
```

## Exported Types

All interfaces are exported for use in your own code:

```typescript
import type {
  IBookStackBook,
  IBookStackChapter,
  IBookStackPage,
  IBookStackShelf,
  IBookStackAttachment,
  IBookStackComment,
  IBookStackUser,
  IBookStackRole,
  IBookStackSearchResult,
  IBookStackTag,
  IBookStackListParams,
  TBookStackExportFormat,
} from '@apiclient.xyz/bookstack';
```
