Getting Started
Init your SDK
Initialize your SDK code with your project ID, which can be found in your project settings page.
import io.appwrite.Client
import io.appwrite.services.Account
val client = Client(context)
.setEndpoint("https://[HOSTNAME_OR_IP]/v1") // Your API Endpoint
.setProject("5df5acd0d48c2") // Your project ID
.setSelfSigned(true) // Remove in production
Before starting to send any API calls to your new Appwrite instance, make sure your Android emulators has network access to the Appwrite server hostname or IP address.
When trying to connect to Appwrite from an emulator or a mobile device, localhost is the hostname for the device or emulator and not your local Appwrite instance. You should replace localhost with your private IP as the Appwrite endpoint's hostname. You can also use a service like ngrok to proxy the Appwrite API.
Make Your First Request
Once your SDK object is set, access any of the Appwrite services and choose any request to send. Full documentation for any service method you would like to use can be found in your SDK documentation or in the API References section.
// Register User
val account = Account(client)
val user = account.create(
"email@example.com",
"password"
)
Full Example
import io.appwrite.Client
import io.appwrite.services.Account
val client = Client(context)
.setEndpoint("https://[HOSTNAME_OR_IP]/v1") // Your API Endpoint
.setProject("5df5acd0d48c2") // Your project ID
.setSelfSigned(true) // Remove in production
val account = Account(client)
val user = account.create(
"email@example.com",
"password"
)
Error Handling
The Apopwrite Android SDK raises AppwriteException object with message, code and response properties. You can handle any errors by catching AppwriteException and present the message to the user or handle it yourself based on provided error information. Below is an example.
try {
var response = account.create("email@example.com", "password")
Log.d("Appwrite response", response.body?.string())
} catch(e : AppwriteException) {
Log.e("AppwriteException",e.message.toString())
}
