quickrest 0.1.9
quick_rest
A versatile wrapper for REST APIs.
Dependencies
The sole non-builtin dependency is requests.
Installation
Use pip to install.
python -m pip install quick_rest
Usage
No full documentation at this time, maybe someday I'll get around to it...
You can get and post right now, and use the auth methods listed below. You can pass any requests get or post kwarg in on the Client.get and Client.post methods.
Authentication
You can currently use no authentication, key authentication and JWT authentication.
No Authentication
from quick_rest import Client
url = 'https://cat-fact.herokuapp.com/'
client = Client(url)
route = 'facts'
response = client.get(route)
Key
from quick_rest import KeyClient
url = 'https://www.haloapi.com/'
creds = {'keyname': 'somekeyhere'}
client = KeyClient(url, creds)
route = 'stats/hw2/xp?players=LamerLink' # check out my sweet Halo stats
response = client.get(route)
JWT (JSON Web Token)
from quick_rest import JWTClient
url = 'https://some-jwt-client.com/'
creds = {'username': 'someusername', 'password': 'somepassword'}
# We need to specify the names for the auth_route, token_name, and jwt_key_name.
client = JWTClient(url, creds, 'auth', 'access_token', 'Authorization')
route = 'v0/some/route/results.json'
response = client.get(route)
Results
Results come in the form of a ServerResponse object. You can access the raw_content attribute or use the decode, get_value, to_txt and to_csv methods to get the data from the object.
raw_response = response.raw_response
decoded_response = response.decode() # utf-8 by default
decoded_response = response.decode(encoding='utf-16')
value = response.get_value(key_name)
response.to_txt('some/path/file.txt') # dumps the raw response to file
response.to_csv('some/path/file.csv')
# By default, to_csv sets \n to lineterminator and writes the header to file
response.to_csv('some/path/file.csv', lineterminator='\t', omit_header=True)
