The @westyx-nexus/sdk-vue package is hosted on the GitLab npm Package Registry. It is public - no token is required to install.

1. Configure npm to look at the registry

Add (or merge) the following to your project’s .npmrc:
Commit the .npmrc to source control. It contains no credentials - every developer on the team automatically picks up the right registry.

2. Install the package

Pin to a specific version:

Requirements

  • Vue 3.3 or newer (Composition API - Options API is not supported)
  • A modern browser environment with fetch streaming support - ReadableStream response bodies (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge - all evergreens)
  • TypeScript users: 5.0+ for full type compatibility (peer of Vue 3.3 typings)

Use a public API key

Browser SDKs must use a wxp_... (public) key. Secret keys (wxs_...) are rejected at runtime.The API key is sent in the X-Nexus-API-Key header on every request, including the SSE /stream connection - the SDK uses fetch-based streaming, not the browser EventSource API, so the key never appears in the URL, server access logs, or browser history.
The SDK enforces this via:
  1. A branded TypeScript type (PublicApiKey) - gives you a compile-time hint when typing strictly
  2. A runtime guard in the SDK constructor - throws a descriptive error before any network call
  3. A backend reject - a request carrying an wxs_... key against a browser/public surface returns 400 Bad Request

Importing

The package exposes both ESM and CJS builds:

SSR / Nuxt

The fetch-based SSE stream is browser-only (the SDK skips it during SSR). In Nuxt 3, register the SDK in a client-only plugin:
The .client.ts suffix tells Nuxt to skip this plugin on the server, so SSR doesn’t try to open the stream.

Verifying connectivity

Before writing any code, confirm your endpoint and API key work with a plain curl:
A valid response returns a JSON snapshot with your configs and flags (browser SDKs use public keys - secrets are never included). An HTTP 401 means the key is wrong; HTTP 404 means the slug is wrong.

Troubleshooting

  • Could not resolve '@westyx-nexus/sdk-vue' - your .npmrc is not picked up. Confirm it’s at the project root next to package.json, and check npm config get registry @westyx-nexus.
  • 401 Unauthorized when running npm install - the registry might be configured with an old path. Switch to the numeric-ID variant above.
  • Browser SDKs require a public key at runtime - replace your wxs_... key with a wxp_... key from the same service in the Westyx Nexus admin UI.
