📚 Documentation

You can find the official lexoffice API documentation here.

🔑 Usage

To get your API Key, you must already be a lexoffice user. Get it here.

import { Client } from '@elbstack/lexoffice-client-js';

const client = new Client(YOUR_LEXOFFICE_API_KEY);

💡 Examples

All functions are promise based. These promises are formatted by the ts-results package, for extended error handling see Error handling.

Retrieve an invoice

const invoiceResult = await client.retrieveInvoice('caf4e0c3-c3e8-4a06-bcfe-346bc7190b2');

if (invoiceResult.ok) {
  const invoice = invoiceResult.val;
} else {
  console.error('An error occured');
}

Create an invoice

const invoice = {
  voucherDate: '2017-02-22T00:00:00.000+01:00',
  address: {
    name: 'Bike & Ride GmbH & Co. KG',
    supplement: 'Gebäude 10',
    street: 'Musterstraße 42',
    city: 'Freiburg',
    zip: '79112',
    countryCode: 'DE',
  },
  lineItems: [
    {
      type: 'custom',
      name: 'Energieriegel Testpaket',
      quantity: 1,
      unitName: 'Stück',
      unitPrice: {
        currency: 'EUR',
        netAmount: 5,
        taxRatePercentage: 0,
      },
      discountPercentage: 0,
    },
    {
      type: 'text',
      name: 'Strukturieren Sie Ihre Belege durch Text-Elemente.',
      description: 'Das hilft beim Verständnis',
    },
  ],
  totalPrice: {
    currency: 'EUR',
  },
  taxConditions: {
    taxType: 'net',
  },
  shippingConditions: {
    shippingDate: '2017-04-22T00:00:00.000+02:00',
    shippingType: 'delivery',
  },
  title: 'Rechnung',
  introduction: 'Ihre bestellten Positionen stellen wir Ihnen hiermit in Rechnung',
  remark: 'Vielen Dank für Ihren Einkauf',
};

const createdInvoiceResult = await client.createInvoice(invoice, { finalize: true });

if (createdInvoiceResult.ok) {
  const invoice = createdInvoiceResult.val;
} else {
  console.error('An error occured');
}

Upload File

let fs = require('fs');
let FormData = require('form-data');

let data = new FormData();

data.append('file', fs.createReadStream(__dirname + '/yourFolder/yourFile'));
data.append('type', 'voucher');

const uploadedFileResult = await client.uploadFile(data);

if (uploadedFileResult.ok) {
  const invoice = uploadedFileResult.val;
} else {
  console.error('An error occured');
}

Error handling

As mentioned above, the returned promises are formatted by ts-results which is a typescript implementation of Rust's Result and Option objects. It brings compile-time error checking and optional values to typescript. All errors are instances of type RequestError. If you want to use the advantages of ts-results, all client responses should be processed similar to the following:

if (YOUR_RESULT.ok) {
  const YOUR_VARIABLE = YOUR_RESULT.val;
  // Work with your result
} else {
  // Your request returned an error
  const error = YOUR_RESULT.val;
  console.log('error:', error);
  // Further error checking is possible by
  if (error instanceof RequestError) {
    console.log('Hello instance of RequestError!');

    if (error instanceof RequestNotFoundError) {
      console.log('Wow, it looks like you have many instances!');
    }
    if (error instanceof RequestMethodNotAcceptableLegacyError) {
      console.log('Seems, that you take care of your legacy!');
    }
  }
}

🔖 Side notes

Updating

For updating any type of vouchers where the "version" property is required, you first need to retrieve it and use the current "version" value to properly update.

Rendering Document File Id

Only possible for any type of vouchers that are not in "draft" mode.

Download File

The required id is not the id itself, it is the documentFileId, which can be required with the matching method and the vouchers id:

renderCreditNoteDocumentFileId(id);
renderInvoiceDocumentFileId(id);
renderOrderConfirmationDocumentFileId(id);
renderQuotationDocumentFileId(id);
