What Prop Settings Should I Use for a Custom GitHub Source When Instantiating Via API?

can’t I deploy the source using code directly, not a file?

You can deploy a source using code directly via a URL. Here’s how you can do it: bash pd deploy <url-to-raw-code> For example: ```
bash pd deploy https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PipedreamHQ/pipedream/master/components/http/sources/new-requests/new-requests.js

can’t I just pass the code itself?

It sounds like you’re asking whether you can pass code directly to a Pipedream code step. While you can’t pass the code itself as a prop, you can pass data to code steps using props, which can then be used within your code. This allows you to make your code steps more reusable and flexible. Here’s an example of how you can pass a string prop to a code step: export default defineComponent({ props: { firstName: { type: "string", label: "Your first name", default: "Dylan", }, }, async run({ steps, $ }) { console.log(`Hello ${this.firstName}, congrats on crafting your first prop!`); }, }); In this example, the firstName prop is defined and can be set from the workflow builder. The value of firstName is then used within the run method. For more details on passing props to code steps, you can refer to the Node.js code step documentation. If you have a specific use case or need further clarification, please let me know!

Is template_id mandatory to create workflow via api?

To create a workflow via the Pipedream API, the template_id is not mandatory. You can define the workflow steps, triggers, and settings directly within the API request. However, if you want to create a workflow based on an existing template, you would use the template_id. For more details on creating workflows programmatically, you can refer to the Pipedream REST API documentation. If you have any specific requirements or need further assistance, please let me know!

So, can I also define intermediate code steps within a create workflow api call?

You should visit REST API - Pipedream for the latest information on the Pipedream REST API, but I’ll do my best to answer. Yes, you can define intermediate code steps within a create workflow API call. When you create a workflow programmatically using the Pipedream REST API, you can specify the steps and triggers, including custom code steps, as part of the workflow configuration. Here is an example of how you might structure the payload for the create workflow endpoint to include intermediate code steps: on { "name": "My Workflow", "steps": [ { "name": "trigger", "type": "trigger", "props": { "type": "http" } }, { "name": "code_step_1", "type": "code", "props": { "code": "export default defineComponent({ async run({ steps, $ }) { console.log('Step 1'); } });" } }, { "name": "code_step_2", "type": "code", "props": { "code": "export default defineComponent({ async run({ steps, $ }) { console.log('Step 2'); } });" } } ] } In this example, the workflow has an HTTP trigger and two intermediate code steps. Each code step is defined with its own props containing the JavaScript code to be executed. For more details on creating workflows programmatically, please refer to the Pipedream REST API documentation.

in above example, would triggers be a separate triggers: or within steps:

In Pipedream, triggers are a separate type of step and are not nested within the steps array. Every workflow begins with a trigger step, which initiates the execution of the workflow. Here is an example to illustrate this: yaml # Example Pipedream workflow name: My Workflow # Define the trigger trigger: name: HTTP Trigger type: http # Define the steps steps: - name: Step 1 type: code code: | console.log("This is Step 1") - name: Step 2 type: code code: | console.log("This is Step 2") In this example: - The trigger is defined separately and initiates the workflow when an HTTP request is received. - The steps array contains the actions that will be executed sequentially after the trigger is fired. For more information on triggers and steps, you can refer to the Pipedream documentation. If you have any more questions or need further clarification, please let me know!

how to create a source using pipedream API

To create a source using the Pipedream API, you’ll need to follow these steps: 1. Find the details of the source you’d like to create: - Identify the key that identifies the component by name. - Identify the props (input data) required to create the source. 2. Retrieve the key and props: - You can find the key by reviewing the code for the source in Pipedream’s GitHub repo. - Navigate to the app-specific directory for your source, then visit the sources/ directory in that directory to find your source. For example, to create an RSS source, visit the components/rss/sources/new-item-in-feed/new-item-in-feed.js source. - The key is a globally unique identifier for the source. You’ll see the key for this source near the top of the file: key: "rss-new-item-in-feed", 3. Make an API request to retrieve component information: - Given this key, make an API request to the /components/registry/{key} endpoint of Pipedream’s REST API: bash curl https://api.pipedream.com/v1/components/registry/rss-new-item-in-feed \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" -vvv \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" - This returns information about the component, including a configurable_props section that lists the input you’ll need to provide to create the source: ```
on “configurable_props”: [ { “name”: “rss”, “type”: “app”, “app”: “rss” }, { “name”: “url”, “type”: “string”, “label”: “Feed URL”, “description”: “Enter the URL for any public RSS feed.” }, { “name”: “timer”, “type”: “$.interface.timer”, “default”: { “intervalSeconds”: 900 } } ],

give sample code in node

Sure, here’s a sample Node.js code step you can use in a Pipedream workflow: ```
import { axios } from “@pipedream/platform”; export default defineComponent({ async run({ steps, $ }) { console.log(“This is Node.js code”); $.export(“test”, “Some test data”); return “Test data”; }, });

give sample code in node to create a source using pipedream rest api

To create a source using the Pipedream REST API in Node.js, you can use the axios library to make HTTP requests. Below is an example of how to create an RSS event source: import axios from "axios"; const createSource = async () => { const url = "https://api.pipedream.com/v1/sources"; const apiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY"; // Replace with your Pipedream API key const data = { key: "rss-new-item-in-feed", name: "test-rss", configured_props: { url: "https://rss.m.pipedream.net", timer: { intervalSeconds: 60, }, }, }; try { const response = await [axios.post](http://axios.post)(url, data, { headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${apiKey}`, "Content-Type": "application/json", }, }); console.log(response.data); } catch (error) { console.error("Error creating source:", error); } }; createSource(); In this example: 1. Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual Pipedream API key. 2. The data object contains the configuration for the RSS source, including the URL to poll and the interval at which to poll it (intervalSeconds: 60 means it will poll every 60 seconds). This script will create a new RSS source in your Pipedream account. If successful, it will log the response data, which includes details about the created source.

You should visit Pricing - Pipedream for the latest pricing, but I’ll do my best to answer. The error message “please specify a valid workspace” typically indicates that the workspace information is missing or incorrect in your request. When creating a source via the Pipedream REST API, you need to ensure that your API key is associated with the correct workspace. Here is an updated version of your code that includes the workspace ID in the request URL: ```
import axios from “axios”; const createSource = async () => { const workspaceId = “your_workspace_id”; // Replace with your Pipedream workspace ID const url = https://api.pipedream.com/v1/workspaces/${workspaceId}/sources; const apiKey = “3687466385c31c809f0aabaf9146b0de”; // Replace with your Pipedream API key const data = { key: “rss-new-item-in-feed”, name: “test-rss”, configured_props: { url: “https://rss.m.pipedream.net”, timer: { intervalSeconds: 60, }, }, }; try { const response = await axios.post(url, data, { headers: { Authorization: Bearer ${apiKey}, “Content-Type”: “application/json”, }, }); console.log(response.data); } catch (error) { console.error(“Error creating source:”, error); } }; createSource();
