Smarty JavaScript SDK

If you want to access our APIs (other than the Download API) from a JavaScript application, the Smarty (formerly SmartyStreets) JavaScript SDK can make it a lot easier. Our JavaScript SDK includes ready-made data structures and takes care of all the gritty, low-level HTTP intricacies for you.

Requirements

  1. Have a JavaScript project written for ES6 or higher.
  2. Realize that you need an address verification component.
  3. Congratulate yourself on your wisdom and personal growth when you conclude that you don't want to build your own address verification component.
  4. Realize that Smarty has already created an address verification component.
  5. Maybe take a drink of something fluid and fit for human consumption to quench your thirst.
  6. Congratulations! You are now ready to use the Smarty JavaScript SDK.

How Does It Work?

The Smarty JavaScript SDK is pre-composed of a set of shared core components that can be used across all of our APIs with bespoke lookup objects for your convenience. New up a lookup and a client, send the lookup with the client, and get back a promise. Easy as that.

How to Get It

NPM

Of course we're on NPM. Slurp it down like this:

npm install smartystreets-javascript-sdk

Once you've got it, you can initialize the SDK client and you're ready to start moving and shaking.

Download the Source Code

You can find source code of the Smarty JavaScript SDK repository on Github which contains many sample code snippets.

Use the source, Luke!
