## Installation

```bash
npm install namecheap-ts
```

```bash
yarn add namecheap-ts
```

```bash
pnpm add namecheap-ts
```

## Quick Start

```typescript
import Namecheap, { INamecheapConfig } from "namecheap-ts";

// Configure the client
const config: INamecheapConfig = {
  apiUser: "your-api-username",
  apiKey: "your-api-key",
  username: "your-username",
  clientIp: "your-whitelisted-ip",
};

// Create an instance (set second parameter to true for sandbox)
const namecheap = new Namecheap(config, false);

// Check domain availability
const { data } = await namecheap.checkDomain("example.com");
console.log(`Available: ${data.available}, Premium: ${data.premium}`);
```

## Configuration

### INamecheapConfig

| Property   | Type     | Required | Description                     |

| `username` | `string` | ✅       | Your Namecheap account username |
| `clientIp` | `string` | ✅       | Your whitelisted IP address     |

### Sandbox Mode

Pass `true` as the second parameter to use the Namecheap sandbox environment:

```typescript
const namecheap = new Namecheap(config, true); // Sandbox mode
```

## API Reference

  console.log("Domain is available!");
  if (result.data.premium) {
    console.log("This is a premium domain");
  }
}
```

### `getDomainPrice(domainName: string, action: DomainPriceAction)`

  "example.com",
  DomainPriceActions.REGISTER,
);

console.log(pricing.data);
```

### `registerDomain(payload: Payload)`

## Error Handling

```typescript
try {
  const result = await namecheap.checkDomain("example.com");
  console.log(result.data);
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof InvalidDomainNameException) {
    console.error("Invalid domain name provided");
  } else {
    console.error("API error:", error.message);
  }
}
```

## Complete Example

```typescript
import Namecheap, { INamecheapConfig, DomainPriceActions } from "namecheap-ts";

async function main() {
  const config: INamecheapConfig = {
    apiUser: process.env.NAMECHEAP_API_USER!,
    apiKey: process.env.NAMECHEAP_API_KEY!,
    username: process.env.NAMECHEAP_USERNAME!,
    clientIp: process.env.NAMECHEAP_CLIENT_IP!,
  };

  const namecheap = new Namecheap(config, true); // Sandbox mode

  // Check domain availability
  const domain = "example.com";
  const availabilityCheck = await namecheap.checkDomain(domain);

  if (availabilityCheck.data.available) {
    // Get pricing
    const pricing = await namecheap.getDomainPrice(
      domain,
      DomainPriceActions.REGISTER,
    );

    console.log("Domain is available!");
    console.log("Pricing:", pricing.data);
  } else {
    console.log("Domain is not available");
  }
}

main();
```
