Bolt.new AI and Edmodo integration: Step-by-Step Guide 2025

 

Adding the Node-Fetch Dependency

  Since Bolt.new AI doesn’t provide a terminal, you need to install dependencies directly in your code. If your project environment lacks a global fetch, add the following snippet at the very top of your project (for example, inside your main index.ts file) to import node‑fetch from a CDN:

import fetch from 'https://cdn.skypack.dev/node-fetch';

 

Creating the Edmodo Integration File

  Create a new file named edmodoIntegration.ts in your project’s source folder (for example, in the src folder). In this file, add the code below. It contains sample functions to get user data and post assignment data via Edmodo’s API. Replace YOUREDMODOAPI_KEY with your actual Edmodo API key and adjust the API endpoints as needed.

// edmodoIntegration.ts
// If fetch is globally available or imported as shown earlier, you can use it directly.
const EDMODOBASEURL = 'https://api.edmodo.com'; // Adjust endpoint if necessary
const EDMODOAPIKEY = 'YOUREDMODOAPI_KEY'; // Replace with your actual API key

export async function getUserData(userId: string): Promise<any> {
    try {
        const response = await fetch(${EDMODO_BASE_URL}/users/${userId}?api_key=${EDMODO_API_KEY});
        if (!response.ok) {
            throw new Error(Edmodo API error: ${response.statusText});
        }
        return await response.json();
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error fetching Edmodo user data:', error);
        throw error;
    }
}
export async function postAssignmentData(assignmentData: any): Promise<any> {
    try {
        const response = await fetch(${EDMODO_BASE_URL}/assignments?api_key=${EDMODO_API_KEY}, {
            method: 'POST',
            headers: {
                'Content-Type': 'application/json',
            },
            body: JSON.stringify(assignmentData),
        });
        if (!response.ok) {
            throw new Error(Edmodo API error: ${response.statusText});
        }
        return await response.json();
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error posting Edmodo assignment data:', error);
        throw error;
    }
}

 

Modifying Your Main Application Code

  Open your project’s main file (index.ts or a similar entry point) and import the functions from edmodoIntegration.ts. Then, call these functions where appropriate within your application logic. For example, add the following code in your main file to test the integration:

import { getUserData, postAssignmentData } from './edmodoIntegration';

async function runEdmodoIntegration() {
    try {
        const userId = 'USERIDHERE'; // Replace with the actual user ID from Edmodo
        const userData = await getUserData(userId);
        console.log('Edmodo User Data:', userData);
    // Sample assignment data payload; adjust as needed.
    const assignmentData = {
        title: 'New Assignment',
        description: 'This is a sample assignment description.',
        due_date: '2023-12-31'
    };

    const assignmentResponse = await postAssignmentData(assignmentData);
    console.log('Assignment Posted:', assignmentResponse);
} catch (error) {
    console.error('Integration Error:', error);
}

}
runEdmodoIntegration();

 

Setting Up Your API Credentials

  Within the edmodoIntegration.ts file, ensure you replace YOUREDMODOAPI_KEY with your actual API key from Edmodo. If Bolt.new AI provides an environment variables configuration, you can alternatively define your API key there and modify your code as follows:

// Replace the API key assignment with the following line if using an env variable:
const EDMODOAPIKEY = process.env.EDMODOAPIKEY || 'YOUREDMODOAPI_KEY';

 

Testing Your Integration

  After inserting the code snippets, trigger the runEdmodoIntegration() function by running your project. The console should display the Edmodo user data and the response from the assignment post. Verify the outputs and check for any errors during API calls.
