Quick Start Guide

Bluesky PBLLC maintains a TypeScript protocol implementation. The API is available for use here.

To get started with this package, install:

npm install @atproto/api

To import this package in your application, use:

import { BskyAgent } from '@atproto/api'

Set your username and password as environment variables. Create a Bluesky agent and login with the below excerpt:

const agent = new BskyAgent({ service: 'https://bsky.social' })

await agent.login({
  identifier: process.env.BLUESKY_USERNAME!,
  password: process.env.BLUESKY_PASSWORD!,
});

To use this agent to create a post:

await agent.post({
    text: "Hello world"
});

View more sample API calls in the package documentation.
