ts-events-api

Typed events/calendar REST API written in TypeScript, compiled with esbuild, deployed as a JS Cell.

Setup

npm install
ribo db create events
ribo deploy            # runs esbuild src/cell.ts → dist/cell.js, then uploads
URL=http://localhost:8080/<addr>
curl -X POST $URL/init

Routes

Method	Path	Body	Description
POST	/init	—	Create schema + index (idempotent)
GET	/events	—	List all events; ?date=YYYY-MM-DD to filter
GET	/events/:id	—	Get one event
POST	/events	{ title, date, description? }	Create event
PATCH	/events/:id	{ title?, date?, description? }	Update event
DELETE	/events/:id	—	Delete event

date must be YYYY-MM-DD.

Try it

URL=http://localhost:8080/<addr>

curl -X POST $URL/events -d '{"title":"Launch","date":"2026-06-01","description":"Ship it"}'
curl -X POST $URL/events -d '{"title":"Retro","date":"2026-06-08"}'

curl "$URL/events?date=2026-06-01"
curl -X PATCH $URL/events/1 -d '{"description":"Ship it for real this time"}'
curl -X DELETE $URL/events/2

What this demonstrates

• TypeScript → JS compilation as a ribo.toml build step (no Makefile, no CI config)
• Type-safe C3Database interface matching the C3 client's actual return shapes
• esbuild for fast, dependency-free bundling: src/cell.ts → single dist/cell.js
• The build output (dist/cell.js) is what gets uploaded — the TS source never leaves the machine
