Official FatBaby SDKs

Thin, typed clients for the production API at https://thefatbaby.com/api. Same auth, credits, and job model as the REST docs — no invented endpoints.

Install

Packages ship as @thefatbaby/sdk (npm) and thefatbaby (PyPI). Links go live when the public packages are published; source lives in this monorepo under packages/sdk-js and packages/sdk-python.

Node.js 18+

npm install @thefatbaby/sdk

Quick start

Authenticate with fb_live_… or fb_test_…. POSTs that charge credits are never auto-retried (the API has no idempotency keys).

import { writeFile } from 'node:fs/promises';
import { FatBaby } from '@thefatbaby/sdk';

const fb = new FatBaby({ apiKey: process.env.FATBABY_API_KEY });

const shot = await fb.web.screenshot({ url: 'https://example.com' });
await writeFile(shot.filename || 'shot.png', Buffer.from(shot.data));

const job = await fb.pdf.compress({ file: './doc.pdf' });
await job.wait();
await job.downloadTo('./doc-compressed.pdf');

What's covered

web — screenshot, to-pdf, scrape, link preview, DNS/SSL helpers
image — resize, compress, convert, rembg, upscale, …
pdf / video / audio — async jobs with wait() + download()
ocr, sheets, tools, email, jobs

Escape hatch: fb.requestJson({ method, path, … }) for any live /v1 path not yet wrapped.
