REST API calls made easier


## Installation

```bash
pip install resteasy
```

## Usage and examples

### Import

```python
from resteasy import RESTEasy, json

api = RESTEasy(base_url='https://api.example.com',
auth=('user', '****'),
verify=False, cert=None, timeout=None,
encoder=json.dumps, decoder=json.loads, debug=False)
```

### Example 1: GitHub Jobs

```python
api = RESTEasy(base_url='https://jobs.github.com')

positions = api.route('positions.json')

positions.get(description='python', full_time=True)
# or
positions.do('GET', {'description': 'python', 'full_time': True})

# GET https://jobs.github.com/positions.json?description=python&full_time=1
```

### Example 2: Jikan animes

```python
api = RESTEasy(base_url='https://api.jikan.me')

### One way
api.route('anime/1').get()

### Another way
api.route('anime', 1).get()

### Yet another way
api.route('anime').route(1).get()

### This is the last way I swear
api.route('anime').route(1).do('GET')

# GET https://api.jikan.me/anime/1
```

### Example 3: Chuck Norris jokes

```python
from __future__ import print_function

api = RESTEasy(base_url='https://api.chucknorris.io')


### Print a random joke
jokes = api.route('jokes')
random = jokes.route('random')
print(random.get())

# GET https://api.chucknorris.io/jokes/random


### Get all categories
categories = jokes.route('categories').get()
print(categories)

# GET https://api.chucknorris.io/jokes/categories


### Print a random joke from each category
for category in categories:
random_joke = random.get(category=category)
print(category, ':', random_joke['value'])

# GET https://api.chucknorris.io/jokes/random?category=<category>
```

### Example 4: All methods: GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE

```python
api = RESTEasy(base_url='https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com')

posts = api.route('posts')

### GET (fetch resources)
posts.get()
posts.get(userId=1)
posts.route(1).get()

### POST (create a resource)
posts.post(title='foo', body='bar', userId=1)

### PUT & PATCH (update a resource)
posts.route(1).put(id=1, title='foo', body='bar', userId=1)
posts.route(1).patch(title='foo')

### DELETE (delete a resource)
posts.route(1).delete()
```

## Debugging

To enable debugging just pass or set ***debug=True***

```python
api.debug = True
```

Once debugging is set to 'True', Every HTTP call will return debug information instead of doing the actual request

```python
>>> posts.debug = True
>>> posts.get(userId=1)
{'endpoint': 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts',
'kwargs': {'userId': 1},
'method': 'GET',
'session': <requests.sessions.Session at 0x7f1e8c8bfeb8>}
```
