CodeRabbit Hello World
Overview
Minimal working example demonstrating core CodeRabbit functionality.
Prerequisites
-
Completed coderabbit-install-auth setup
-
Valid API credentials configured
-
Development environment ready
Instructions
Step 1: Create Entry File
Create a new file for your hello world example.
Step 2: Import and Initialize Client
import { CodeRabbitClient } from '@coderabbit/sdk';
const client = new CodeRabbitClient({ apiKey: process.env.CODERABBIT_API_KEY, });
Step 3: Make Your First API Call
async function main() { // Your first API call here }
main().catch(console.error);

-
Successful API response confirming connection
-
Console output showing:
Success! Your CodeRabbit connection is working.
Error Handling
Error Cause Solution
Import Error SDK not installed Verify with npm list or pip show
Auth Error Invalid credentials Check environment variable is set
Timeout Network issues Increase timeout or check connectivity
Rate Limit Too many requests Wait and retry with exponential backoff
