v0 and Teachable integration: Step-by-Step Guide 2025

 

Creating the Teachable Integration File

 

• Create a new file named teachableIntegration.ts in your project’s main folder.
• This file will contain the class responsible for communicating with Teachable’s API. Copy and paste the following code into the new file:

export class TeachableClient {
  private apiKey: string;
  private baseUrl: string = 'https://your-teachable-domain.com/api/v1';
  
  constructor(apiKey: string) {
    this.apiKey = apiKey;
  }
  async enrollStudent(courseId: string, studentId: string): Promise {
    const url = ${this.baseUrl}/courses/${courseId}/enrollments;
    try {
      const response = await fetch(url, {
        method: 'POST',
        headers: {
          'Content-Type': 'application/json',
          'Authorization': Bearer ${this.apiKey}
        },
        body: JSON.stringify({ student_id: studentId })
      });
      return await response.json();
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Error enrolling student:', error);
      throw error;
    }
  }
}
  



• This code creates a TeachableClient class that sends a POST request to enroll a student in a specific course using Teachable’s API.

 

Setting Up Environment Configuration

 

• Create a new file named config.ts in your project’s main folder.
• This file will store your Teachable API key and course ID. Insert the following code into config.ts:

export const TEACHABLEAPIKEY = 'your-teachable-api-key-here';
export const TEACHABLECOURSEID = 'your-teachable-course-id-here';
  

• Replace 'your-teachable-api-key-here' and 'your-teachable-course-id-here' with your actual credentials from Teachable.

 

Integrating Teachable Client in Your Main Application Code

 

• Open your main TypeScript file (commonly named main.ts) where you initialize or run your application’s code.
• At the top of the file, import the TeachableClient class and the configuration variables:

import { TeachableClient } from './teachableIntegration';
import { TEACHABLEAPIKEY, TEACHABLECOURSEID } from './config';
  

• Initialize an instance of TeachableClient using your API key:

const teachable = new TeachableClient(TEACHABLEAPIKEY);
  

• Create a function that enrolls a student. For example, add the following function in main.ts:

async function enrollStudentToTeachable(studentId: string) {
  try {
    const result = await teachable.enrollStudent(TEACHABLECOURSEID, studentId);
    console.log('Enrollment Successful:', result);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Enrollment Failed:', error);
  }
}

// Example usage: Enroll a test student with ID 'student123'
enrollStudentToTeachable('student123');
  



• This code imports the client, creates an instance with your credentials, and calls the API to enroll a student. Replace 'student123' with the actual student ID when needed.

 

Handling Dependencies Without a Terminal

 

• Since your v0 project does not have a terminal, you cannot run dependency install commands. Instead, rely on the built-in browser’s fetch API for HTTP requests.
• If your project environment does not recognize fetch (for example, if running in Node.js), you may add a fetch polyfill directly in your code by inserting the following snippet at the very beginning of your main.ts file:

// If running in Node.js, uncomment the lines below to import a fetch polyfill from a CDN.
// Otherwise, if the browser environment already supports fetch, you can ignore this section.

// import('https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/node-fetch.min.js').then(module => {
//   // @ts-ignore
//   global.fetch = module.default;
// });
  



• This inline code ensures that if your environment needs a fetch implementation, it will be loaded from a CDN.

 

Testing the Integration

 

• With all files saved (teachableIntegration.ts, config.ts, and modifications in main.ts), reload your application in the browser or the environment where your project runs.
• Open the console to observe logs. If enrollment is successful, you should see a message like Enrollment Successful: followed by the response from Teachable’s API.
• In case of an error, check the console for Enrollment Failed: messages and review your API credentials and course ID.

 

Final Remarks

 

• This step-by-step guide has shown you how to integrate your v0 project with Teachable by creating a new integration file, setting up configuration values, and modifying your main application code.
• Ensure that you replace placeholder values (like API keys, course IDs, and domain URL) with your actual Teachable information.
• When making changes, save all modified files and refresh your project to see the updates.
