CodeSandbox Sandboxes with ComputeSDK

CodeSandbox provider for ComputeSDK - fast browser-compatible sandboxes with npm and Python support.

Setup

npm install computesdk @computesdk/codesandbox

Set your credentials:

# .env
CSB_API_KEY=your_csb_api_key

Quick Start

import { compute } from 'computesdk';
import { codesandbox } from '@computesdk/codesandbox';

compute.setConfig({
  provider: codesandbox({
    apiKey: process.env.CSB_API_KEY,
  }),
});

const sandbox = await compute.sandbox.create();

const result = await sandbox.runCommand('echo "Hello from CodeSandbox!"');
console.log(result.stdout);

await sandbox.destroy();

You can also call the provider factory directly:

import { codesandbox } from '@computesdk/codesandbox';

const sdk = codesandbox({
    apiKey: process.env.CSB_API_KEY,
  });
const sandbox = await sdk.sandbox.create();

CodeSandbox Configuration

interface CodesandboxConfig {

  /** CodeSandbox API key - if not provided, will fallback to CSB_API_KEY environment variable */
  apiKey?: string;
  /** Template to use for new sandboxes */
  templateId?: string;
  /** Default runtime environment (e.g. 'node', 'python') */
  runtime?: string;
  /** Execution timeout in milliseconds */
  timeout?: number;

}

Full API

ComputeSDK exposes the same universal sandbox API across providers: sandbox.create(), sandbox.getById(), sandbox.destroy(), sandbox.runCommand(), sandbox.getInfo(), sandbox.getUrl(), and sandbox.filesystem.*.
