# Node API Client For IONOS Cloud Dbaas Postgres
[![[ CI ] DBaaS Postgres / Node](https://github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-resources/actions/workflows/ci-dbaas-postgres-node.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/ionos-cloud/sdk-resources/actions/workflows/ci-dbaas-postgres-node.yml)

# Overview
An enterprise-grade Database is provided as a Service (DBaaS) solution that
can be managed through a browser-based \"Data Center Designer\" (DCD) tool or
via an easy to use API.

The API allows you to create additional database clusters or modify existing
ones. It is designed to allow users to leverage the same power and
flexibility found within the DCD visual tool. Both tools are consistent with
their concepts and lend well to making the experience smooth and intuitive.

## Installation

Install the following dependencies:

```shell
npm i --save @ionos-cloud/sdk-nodejs-dbaas-postgres
```

## Usage
Import the SDK using:

```javascript
const sdk = require('@ionos-cloud/sdk-nodejs-dbaas-postgres')
```

Or, if the import is done from an ES module, use:

```javascript
import * as sdk from '@ionos-cloud/sdk-nodejs-dbaas-postgres';
```

Usage example:
```javascript
const sdk = require('@ionos-cloud/sdk-nodejs-dbaas-postgres')

const config = new sdk.Configuration({username: 'username_here', password: 'password_here'});
const clustersApi = new sdk.ClustersApi(config);

clustersApi.clustersGet().then((response) => console.log(response));

```

### Authentication

The username and password or the authentication token can be manually specified when initializing the SDK client:

```javascript
const config = new sdk.Configuration({username: 'username_here', password: 'password_here'});
const clustersApi = new sdk.ClustersApi(config);
```

Environment variables can also be used; the SDK uses the following variables:

* IONOS\_USERNAME - to specify the username used to login
* IONOS\_PASSWORD - to specify the password
* IONOS\_TOKEN - if an authentication token is being used

In this case, the client configuration must be initialized using `fromEnv()`:

```javascript
const client = new sdk.ClustersApi(sdk.Configuration.fromEnv());
```
