JavaScript Content API Library · Dedicated Client Package
The JavaScript Content API Library a.k.a. Content API is an interface handling data coming from the FirstSpirit CaaS and the Navigation Service. The data is processed and transformed so that it can be used in any JavaScript project.
SubPackage This package holds the compiled client part of the Content API. It is intended to be shipped in client environments, such as the users' browser. It is optimized to hold only necessary parts needed for execution in a client context. The main functionality is to talk to a backend service, implementing the FSXARemoteApi class.
Attention We would like to inform you that the project previously known as "FSXA-API" has recently undergone a name change. The project is now called "JavaScript Content API Library", but please note that this change solely affects the project's name, repository, and associated branding elements. The core code and functionality of the library remain unchanged. The purpose and scope of the library, as well as its intended usage and compatibility, remain consistent. The decision to change the name was made as the term "fsxa" no longer accurately represents the project's current scope, as other components beyond the fjdsdjjxsa-api are now discontinued. The name change aims to align the project's branding with its refined purpose and to avoid any confusion regarding its functionality.
Experimental features
Features marked as experimental are subject to change as long as they remain in the experimental state. Breaking changes to experimental features are not reflected in a major version changes.

Methods
In this section all available methods will be explained using examples.
Constructor
To be able to use the Content API, a new object must be created.
If you want to use the information provided by the CaaS in your frontend, you can use the FSXAProxyApi
provided with
this package.
It proxies the requested resources to a middleware Rest Api, that does not expose secrets.
If you want to use it in your server, you can use the FSXARemoteApi
. This is not supported by this package. You have
to implement all backend related code with the parent package fjdsdjjxsa-api
.
It then can be registered as a Rest Api that can be called from a FSXAProxyApi
instance you can implement with this
package (fjdsdjjxsa-proxy-api
).
However, to have a fully running application, we recommend using the Content API in your server as well as in your frontend.
The log level can be:
0
= Info
1
= Log
2
= Warning
3
= Error
4
= None. The default is set to 3
.
Here is an example of how the FSXAProxyApi
could be used backend.
Make sure you have fjdsdjjxsa-proxy-api
installed.
import { FSXAProxyApi, LogLevel } from 'fjdsdjjxsa-proxy-api'
const locale = 'de_DE'
const proxyAPI = new FSXAProxyApi(
'http://localhost:3002/api',
LogLevel.INFO
)
// you can also fetch navigation from proxyAPI
const navigationResponse = await proxyAPI.fetchNavigation({
locale,
initialPath: '/'
})
fetchNavigation
This method fetches the navigation from the configured navigation service. You need to pass a FetchNavigationParams
object.
Example:
proxyAPI.fetchNavigation({
locale: 'en_EN',
initialPath: '/',
})
fetchElement
This method fetches an element from the configured CaaS. The FetchElementParams
object defines options to specify your
request. Check FSXARemoteApi.buildCaaSUrl
from the fjdsdjjxsa-api
package to know which URL will be used.
proxyAPI.fetchElement({
id: 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx',
locale: 'de_DE',
})
Note The 'raw' CaaS data might be helpful when you want to know the key names that you can filter for. It is possible to access that data directly with the authorization header and the CaaS Url when working with the
fjdsdjjxsa-api
package.
fetchByFilter
Returns the matching CaaS data entries. It maps the given entries to a more frontend-friendly format. Unnecessary fields will be omitted and the structure is simpler.
Expects as input parameter an array of filters and a language abbreviation. Optionally a page number, page size, sort and additional parameters can be passed. Optionally, a remoteProject can be passed. If one is passed, the element will be fetched from this project instead of the default one.
Several filter objects can be specified in the filter array, the results will then correspond to all specified filters.
One filter object must have a:
field
which specifies the searched key,
operator
which specifies the search operation,
value
which specifies the value that is looked for.
More information to the filters
In this example we search for all elements with the fsType
equals Example
. We want the 2nd
page with a maximum
of 50
entries. The results should be sorted by fsType descending. However, we do not want the identifier
to appear:
proxyApi.fetchByFilter({
filters: [
{
field: 'fsType',
operator: ComparisonQueryOperatorEnum.EQUALS,
value: 'Example',
},
],
locale: 'en',
page: 2,
pagesize: 50,
additionalParams: { keys: { identifier: 0 } },
sort: [{ name: 'fsType', order: 'desc' }],
})
The default sorting is by the id descending. MultiSort is possible and the first sort param is prioritized over subsequent. The sorting is happening on the raw data.
Attention The keys names which are passed to the
fetchByFilter
method (e.g. in the filters or the additionalParams) have to match the key names that are present in the CaaS data.
fetchProjectProperties
Returns the project properties of the given language.
Expects a parameter object with the locale.
ATTENTION: Works only with CaaSConnect module version 3 onwards.
Example:
proxyApi.fetchProjectProperties({
locale: 'de_DE',
})
Filter
You can customize your queries in the fetchByFilter method with these operations. For more information please refer to the MongoDB documentation. Links are provided in each section.
Helpers
There are also some additional helper methods which can be used for different purposes.
type AvailableLocaleParams = {
navigationServiceURL: string
projectId: string
contentMode: string | ('preview' | 'release')
}
getAvailableLocales({
projectId: 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx',
navigationServiceURL: 'https://your.navigation-service.url/navigation',
contentMode: 'preview',
})
This method provides a list of available locales configured in your FirstSpirit project. It is recommended that the configuration matches the ISO format. E.g. ["en_GB", "de_DE"]
Promise<string[]>

Type Mapping
Input Components
This table gives an overview of the FirstSpirit input components, which can be defined in the "Form" tab of the FirstSpirit templates. Each input component has a (Java) data type, which has a representation in the CaaS. Those values are mapped to an interface of the Content API.
| FirstSpirit Input Component | CaaS Representation | Content API Value |
