Add the Axios library by inserting the following script into your main HTML file (for example, index.html). This ensures that Axios is available globally for your TypeScript code without using a terminal.
<!-- Add this line in the <head> or before your closing </body> tag in index.html -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/axios/dist/axios.min.js"></script>
Create a new file in your project structure at src/services/yardiIntegration.ts
. This file will contain the TypeScript code that handles integration calls between your Lovable project and Yardi.
// src/services/yardiIntegration.ts
// Define the configuration interface for Yardi
interface YardiConfig {
baseUrl: string;
apiKey: string;
}
// The YardiService class encapsulates API calls to Yardi
export class YardiService {
private config: YardiConfig;
constructor(config: YardiConfig) {
this.config = config;
}
// Method to create a new lead in Yardi
public async createLead(leadData: any): Promise {
// Construct the API endpoint URL
const url = ${this.config.baseUrl}/api/leads;
try {
// Use axios (loaded globally via the script tag) to post the lead data
const response = await axios.post(url, leadData, {
headers: {
'Authorization': Bearer ${this.config.apiKey},
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
});
return response.data;
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error creating lead in Yardi:', error);
throw error;
}
}
// Method to update a record in Yardi
public async updateRecord(recordId: string, recordData: any): Promise {
const url = ${this.config.baseUrl}/api/records/${recordId};
try {
const response = await axios.put(url, recordData, {
headers: {
'Authorization': Bearer ${this.config.apiKey},
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
});
return response.data;
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error updating record in Yardi:', error);
throw error;
}
}
}
Within your main application file (for instance, src/index.ts
or src/app.ts
), import the YardiService and initialize it with your Yardi configuration details. Then, use its methods to perform API calls.
// src/index.ts or src/app.ts
// Import the YardiService from the services folder
import { YardiService } from './services/yardiIntegration';
// Initialize the Yardi configuration
const yardiConfig = {
baseUrl: 'https://api.yardi.com', // Replace with the actual Yardi base URL if different
apiKey: 'YOURYARDIAPI_KEY' // Replace with your actual Yardi API key
};
// Create an instance of the YardiService with the configuration
const yardiService = new YardiService(yardiConfig);
// Example: Data for creating a new lead
const leadData = {
firstName: 'John',
lastName: 'Doe',
email: 'johndoe@example.com'
};
// Call the createLead method and handle the result
yardiService.createLead(leadData)
.then(response => {
console.log('Lead created successfully:', response);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('Error creating lead:', error);
});
// Example: Updating an existing record (uncomment to use)
// const recordData = { status: 'active' };
// yardiService.updateRecord('recordId123', recordData)
// .then(response => {
// console.log('Record updated successfully:', response);
// })
// .catch(error => {
// console.error('Error updating record:', error);
// });
If Lovable supports environment variable settings, store sensitive data like the API key there. Otherwise, hard-code these values in the configuration object shown above. Ensure that you replace 'YOURYARDIAPI_KEY'
with your actual key and adjust the base URL if needed.
After inserting the code snippets into the specified files, run your Lovable project. Check the console logs for the success message or errors related to the API calls to Yardi. This confirms that your integration is functioning correctly.
