Async helper to work with HTTP APIs

Project description

aio-apiclient – Async helper to work with HTTP APIs

Tests Status PYPI Version

Features

  • Convenient work with any HTTP API (especially with REST)

  • Supports httpx and aiohttp as backends to make requests

  • Very configurable and usable

  • An ability to parse responses automatically

Requirements

  • python >= 3.7

Installation

aio-apiclient should be installed using pip:

pip install aio-apiclient

QuickStart

Github API (https://developer.github.com/v4/):

from apiclient import APIClient

client = APIClient('https://api.github.com', headers={
        'Authorization': 'token OAUTH-TOKEN'
})

# Read information about the current repository
repo = await client.api.repos.klen['aio-apiclient'].get()
print(repo)  # dict parsed from Github Response JSON

Slack API (https://api.slack.com/web):

from apiclient import APIClient

client = APIClient('https://api.github.com', headers={
    'Authorization': 'token OAUTH-TOKEN'
})

# Update current user status (we don't care about this response)
await client.api['users.profile.set'].post(json={
    'profile': {
        'status_text': 'working',
        'status_emoji': ':computer:'
        'status_expiration': 30,
    }
}, read_response_body=False)

And etc

Usage

Initialization

The Client initialization requires root URL for a required API.

from apiclient import APIClient

client = APIClient(

    # Root URL for any API (required)
    'https://api.github.com',

    # Raise `client.Error` for any response with status code > 400
    raise_for_status=True,

    # Set to `False` if you only want to make a request and doesn't care about responses
    read_response_body=True,

    # Parse response's body content-type and return JSON/TEXT/Form data instead the response itself

    # Set total timeout in seconds
    timeout=10.0,

    # Set backend type for making requests (apiclient.backends.BackendHTTPX,
    # apiclient.backends.BackendAIOHTTP) by default first available would be
    # choosen

    backend_type=None,

    # Default backend options to use with every request (headers, params, data, ...)
    # ...

)

App Shutdown

The api client support graceful shutdown. Run await client.shutdown() when you are finishing your app (not necessary).

Middlewares

You are able to dinamically change request params (method, url, other backend params) using middlewares.

import time
from apiclient import APIClient

client = APIClient('https://api.github.com')

@client.middleware
async def insert_timestamp_header(method, url, options):
    options.setdefault('headers', {})
    options['headers']['X-Timestamp'] = str(time.time())
    return method, url, options
