Installation

go get github.com/zynorex/capturecrafy-api

Basic Usage

config := &FigmaConfig{
    ClientID:     "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
    ClientSecret: "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET",
    RedirectURI:  "http://localhost:3000/auth/callback",
}

client, err := NewFigmaClient(config)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

ctx := context.Background()

// Get a file
file, err := client.GetFile(ctx, "fileKey")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

fmt.Println(file.Name)

See Library section below for complete client documentation.

📚 Library Documentation

A comprehensive Go client for the Figma API, designed to communicate with the CaptureCraft application. This library provides full support for file access, component management, design exports, real-time webhooks, and more.

1. OAuth Setup

config := &FigmaConfig{
    ClientID:     "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
    ClientSecret: "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET",
    RedirectURI:  "http://localhost:3000/auth/callback",
}

client, err := NewFigmaClient(config)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

// Get authorization URL
authURL := client.GetAuthURL("random-state")
// Direct user to authURL...

// After user authorizes, exchange code for token
token, err := client.ExchangeCodeForToken(context.Background(), code)

2. File Access

ctx := context.Background()

// Get a file
file, err := client.GetFile(ctx, "fileKey")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

fmt.Println(file.Name)
fmt.Println(file.Document)

3. Component Management

// Get all components in a file
components, err := client.GetFileComponents(ctx, "fileKey")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

for key, component := range components {
    fmt.Printf("%s: %s\n", key, component.Name)
}

4. Design Export

// Export as PNG
pngURL, err := client.ExportPNG(ctx, "fileKey", "nodeID")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

// Export as SVG
svgURL, err := client.ExportSVG(ctx, "fileKey", "nodeID")

// Export with custom scale
imageURL, err := client.GetNodeAsImageURL(ctx, "fileKey", "nodeID", ExportFormatPNG, 2.0)

5. Webhooks

// Create a webhook
webhook, err := client.CreateWebhook(ctx, "teamID", 
    "https://yourapp.com/webhook", "FILE_UPDATE", "Listen for changes")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

// In your webhook handler
http.HandleFunc("/webhook", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    HandleWebhookRequest(r, "webhookSecret", func(event *WebhookEvent, err error) {
        if err != nil {
            http.Error(w, "Invalid webhook", http.StatusBadRequest)
            return
        }
        
        // Process file update event
        if event.Event == "FILE_UPDATE" {
            fmt.Printf("File %s was updated at %d\n", 
                event.FileID, event.Timestamp)
        }
    })
})

Types

Core Types

File - Represents a Figma design file

type File struct {
    Key             string
    Name            string
    LastModified    string
    ThumbnailURL    string
    Version         string
    Document        *Node
    Components      map[string]*Component
    ComponentSets   map[string]*Component
    Styles          map[string]*Style
}

Node - Represents an element in the design

type Node struct {
    ID              string
    Name            string
    Type            string
    X, Y            float64
    Width, Height   float64
    Children        []*Node
    Fills           []Paint
    Strokes         []Paint
    Effects         []Effect
    // ... more properties
}

Component - Represents a reusable component

type Component struct {
    Key             string
    FileKey         string
    NodeID          string
    Name            string
    Description     string
    ThumbnailURL    string
}

WebhookEvent - Represents a webhook event

type WebhookEvent struct {
    Event           string
    FileID          string
    FileKey         string
    Timestamp       int64
    VersionID       string
    InitiatedBy     *User
    Collections     []Collection
    LibraryChanges  *LibraryChange
}

Environment Variables

Create a .env file:

FIGMA_CLIENT_ID=your_client_id
FIGMA_CLIENT_SECRET=your_client_secret
FIGMA_REDIRECT_URI=http://localhost:3000/auth/callback
FIGMA_ACCESS_TOKEN=optional_access_token
WEBHOOK_SECRET=your_webhook_secret

Examples

See examples.go for comprehensive examples including:

OAuth flow
File operations
Component management
Design exports
Webhook setup
Comment management
Node tree navigation
Color utilities

Getting Figma API Credentials

Go to Figma Developer Settings
Create a new app
Copy your Client ID and Client Secret
Set up OAuth redirect URI
Use in your configuration

Webhook Events

Supported webhook events:

FILE_UPDATE - File content was modified
FILE_DELETE - File was deleted
FILE_VERSION_UPDATE - New version created
LIBRARY_PUBLISH - Components published as library

Error Handling

All methods return errors for better error handling:

file, err := client.GetFile(ctx, "fileKey")
if err != nil {
    switch err.(type) {
    case *url.Error:
        // Network error
    default:
        // API error or parsing error
    }
}

Rate Limiting

Figma API has rate limits. Implement exponential backoff:

retries := 3
backoff := time.Second

for i := 0; i < retries; i++ {
    file, err := client.GetFile(ctx, fileKey)
    if err == nil {
        break
    }
    time.Sleep(backoff)
    backoff *= 2
}

Best Practices

Cache tokens - Store OAuth tokens securely
Use webhooks - Don't poll; use webhooks for updates
Batch operations - Use batch export for multiple nodes
Handle rate limits - Implement backoff strategies
Verify signatures - Always verify webhook signatures
Minimize exports - Export only needed formats/scales
