Best Practices

Follow these best practices to get the most out of Bleu.js. These guidelines will help you build more efficient, secure, and maintainable applications.

Performance Optimization

  • Use caching for frequently accessed data
  • Implement proper error handling and retries
  • Monitor and optimize API usage
  • Use batch operations when possible
  • Implement proper rate limiting

Security Guidelines

  • Never expose API keys in client-side code
  • Implement proper authentication and authorization
  • Use environment variables for sensitive data
  • Regularly rotate API keys
  • Implement request validation

Code Organization

// Recommended project structure
src/
  ├── config/
  │   └── bleu.config.js
  ├── services/
  │   └── bleu.service.js
  ├── utils/
  │   └── bleu.utils.js
  └── components/
      └── BleuComponent.js

Error Handling

try {
  const result = await bleu.ai.generate(prompt);
  // Handle success
} catch (error) {
  if (error.code === 'RATE_LIMIT') {
    // Handle rate limiting
  } else if (error.code === 'AUTH_ERROR') {
    // Handle authentication errors
  } else {
    // Handle other errors
  }
}

Testing

  • Write unit tests for Bleu.js integration
  • Use mock responses for testing
  • Test error handling scenarios
  • Implement integration tests
  • Use test environment API keys
