# JavaScript / TypeScript

> Official JS/TS SDK for Pocketenv — `@pocketenv/sdk`.

<Info>
  **GitHub:** [pocketenv-io/pocketenv-js](https://github.com/pocketenv-io/pocketenv-js) · **npm:** [@pocketenv/sdk](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@pocketenv/sdk)
</Info>

## Installation

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
npm install @pocketenv/sdk
# or
bun add @pocketenv/sdk
```

## Authentication

Token resolution order:

1. `Sandbox.configure({ token })` or inline `Sandbox.create({ token })`
2. `POCKETENV_TOKEN` environment variable
3. `~/.pocketenv/token.json`

`Sandbox.configure()` is optional if you have a token file or env var set.

## Quick start

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
import { Sandbox } from "@pocketenv/sdk";

const sandbox = await Sandbox.create({ base: "openclaw" });

const result = await sandbox.sh`echo hello`;
console.log(result.stdout); // "hello\n"

await sandbox.stop();
await sandbox.delete();
```

## Sandbox lifecycle

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
// Create
const sandbox = await Sandbox.create({
  base: "openclaw",
  name: "my-sandbox",
  provider: "cloudflare",
});

// Fetch existing
const existing = await Sandbox.get("sandbox-id");

// List
const { sandboxes, total } = await Sandbox.list({ limit: 20, offset: 0 });

// Start / stop / delete
await sandbox.start({ repo: "github:myorg/myapp", keepAlive: true });
await sandbox.stop();
await sandbox.delete();
```

## Builder pattern

Useful when setting many options:

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
const sandbox = await Sandbox.builder("openclaw")
  .name("api-sandbox")
  .provider("daytona")
  .vcpus(4)
  .memory(8192)
  .disk(20)
  .env("NODE_ENV", "production")
  .env("PORT", "3000")
  .secret("DATABASE_URL", process.env.DATABASE_URL!)
  .secret("API_KEY", process.env.API_KEY!)
  .keepAlive()
  .create();
```

Available builder methods: `name`, `description`, `provider`, `topics`, `repo`, `vcpus`, `memory`, `disk`, `readme`, `env`, `secret`, `keepAlive`, `token`, `baseUrl`.

## Running commands

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
// Tagged template literal (safe interpolation)
const dir = "/home/user/app";
const result = await sandbox.sh`ls -la ${dir}`;
console.log(result.stdout);
console.log(result.stderr);
console.log(result.exitCode);

// Raw exec
await sandbox.exec("npm install");
```

## Environment variables & secrets

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
// Env vars (plaintext)
await sandbox.env.put("API_URL", "https://api.example.com");
const vars = await sandbox.env.list();
await sandbox.env.delete(varId);

// Secrets (encrypted, redacted in responses)
await sandbox.secret.put("API_KEY", process.env.API_KEY!);
const secrets = await sandbox.secret.list();
await sandbox.secret.delete(secretId);
```

## Ports & networking

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
const exposed = await sandbox.expose(3000, "Web server");
console.log(exposed.previewUrl);

await sandbox.unexpose(3000);

const ports = await sandbox.ports.list();

// VS Code in the browser
const vscode = await sandbox.vscode();
console.log(vscode.previewUrl);
```

## Files

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
await sandbox.file.write("/app/config.json", JSON.stringify({ debug: true }));

const files = await sandbox.file.list();
const file  = await sandbox.file.get(fileId);
await sandbox.file.delete(fileId);
```

## Services

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
const service = await sandbox.service.add("web", {
  command: "npm start",
  description: "Node.js web server",
  ports: [3000],
});

await sandbox.service.start(service.id);
await sandbox.service.restart(service.id);
await sandbox.service.stop(service.id);
await sandbox.service.delete(service.id);
```

## Volumes

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
await sandbox.volume.create("data", "/mnt/data");
const volumes = await sandbox.volume.list();
await sandbox.volume.delete(volumeId);
```

## Backups

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
const backup = await sandbox.createBackup("/workspace", "pre-deploy", "7d");
const backups = await sandbox.listBackups();
await Sandbox.restoreBackup(backupId); // static method
```

## SSH keys & Tailscale

```typescript theme={"theme":{"light":"catppuccin-latte","dark":"laserwave"}}
const keys = await sandbox.getSshKeys();
await sandbox.putSshKey(publicKey, privateKey);

await sandbox.tailscale.setAuthKey("tskey-auth-...");
const key = await sandbox.tailscale.getAuthKey();
```
