Usable UPS Integration in Python
Project description
ClassicUPS is an Apache2 Licensed wrapper around the UPS API for creating shipping labels and fetching a package’s tracking status. This library by no means encompasses all of the UPS functionality, but it is suitable for some of the most common shipping-related common tasks.
Features
Track delivery status of tracking number
Create prepaid shipping labels in GIF or EPL (thermal printer) format
Installation
Installation is easy:
$ pip install ClassicUPS
ClassicUPS depends on libxml2 and libxslt. On Ubuntu, the packages are libxml2-dev and libxslt-dev.
Quickstart
Create a UPSConnection object, which gives you access to common UPS methods:
from ClassicUPS import UPSConnection
# Credentials obtained from the UPS website
ups = UPSConnection(license_number,
user_id,
password,
shipper_number, # Optional if you are not creating a shipment
debug=True) # Use the UPS sandbox API rather than prod
Check the delivery date of a package.
tracking = ups.tracking_info('1Z12345E0291980793')
print tracking.in_transit
print tracking.delivered
Create shipment and save shipping label as GIF file:
from_addr = {
'name': 'Google',
'address1': '1600 Amphitheatre Parkway',
'city': 'Mountain View',
'state': 'CA',
'country': 'US',
'postal_code': '94043',
'phone': '6502530000'
}
to_addr = {
'name': 'President',
'address1': '1600 Pennsylvania Ave',
'city': 'Washington',
'state': 'DC',
'country': 'US',
'postal_code': '20500',
'phone': '2024561111'
}
dimensions = { # in inches
'length': 1,
'width': 4,
'height': 9
}
weight = 10 # in lbs
# Create the shipment. Use file_format='EPL' for a thermal-printer-compatible EPL
shipment = ups.create_shipment(from_addr, to_addr, dimensions, weight,
file_format='GIF')
# Print information about our shipment
print shipment.cost
print shipment.tracking_number
# Save the shipping label to print, email, etc
shipment.save_label(open('label.gif', 'wb'))
