exportThunderIDNodeClient

ThunderIDNodeClient is an abstract base class that extends ThunderIDJavaScriptClient with Node.js-specific configuration. Use this class as the foundation when building a new framework-specific authentication client for a Node.js runtime. Examples include adapters for other Node.js server frameworks.

Example

import { ThunderIDNodeClient, ThunderIDNodeConfig } from '@thunderid/node'

interface MyFrameworkConfig extends ThunderIDNodeConfig {
  customOption?: string
}

class MyFrameworkClient extends ThunderIDNodeClient<MyFrameworkConfig> {
  // Add framework-specific methods or override inherited ones here
}

export default MyFrameworkClient
