API bindings for Spoke API

Project description

# Spoke

Spoke (formerly known as Case-Mate) is a company that makes cases for phones
and tablets (ed: among other things).

They are kind enough to expose an API for others to use, and
this is a Python library that interacts with that API. The API is XML-based (but
not SOAP). The structure of this library is meant to reflect the structure of the
API calls and closely as possible; you should be able to read the API docs and use
this library comfortably. Only parameters that do not change between requests are
omitted from each call; for example:

## Example API XML:

```xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Request>
<Customer>CustomerName</Customer>
<RequestType>New</RequestType>
<Key>1234554321123450</Key>
<Logo>
<ImageType>jpg</ImageType>
<Url>http://MyLogoImage.com/logo.jpg</Url>

<Order>

## Equivalent Python Code:

### Setup

```python
import spoke

s = spoke.Spoke(
Customer='CustomerName',
Key='1234554321123450',
Logo={
'ImageType' : 'jpg',
'Url' : 'http://threadless.com/logo.jpg',
},
)

### Create a new order:

result = s.new(
OrderId='CustomerOrderNumber',
ShippingMethod='FirstClass',
PackSlip={
'ImageType' : 'jpg',
'Url' : 'http://PackingSlipImage.com/packslip.jpg',
},
Comments=[{
'Type' : 'Packaging',
'CommentText' : 'Custom Sticker',
}],
OrderInfo={
'FirstName' : 'John',
'LastName' : 'Customer',
'Address1' : '1 Main Street',
'City' : 'Atlanta',
'State' : 'GA',
'PostalCode' : '30084',
'CountryCode' : 'US',
'OrderDate' : '11/08/2011',
'PhoneNumber' : '4045559000',
'PurchaseOrderNumber' : 'PO',
'GiftMessage' : 'Thanks for your purchase',
'Prices' : {
'DisplayOnPackingSlip' : 'Yes',
'CurrencySymbol' : '$',
'TaxCents' : '245',
'ShippingCents' : '450',
'DiscountCents' : '500',
},
},
Cases=[{
'CaseId' : '10001',
'CaseType' : 'iph4bt',
'Quantity' : '1',
'QcImage' : {
'ImageType' : 'jpg',
'Url' : 'http://qcimage.com',
},
'Prices' : {
'CurrencySymbol' : '$',
'RetailCents' : '1000',
'DiscountCents' : '0',
},
}, {
'CaseId' : '10002',
'CaseType' : 'iph4tough',
'Quantity' : '1',
'PrintImage' : {
'ImageType' : 'tiff',
'Url' : 'http://printimage.com',
},
'QcImage' : {
'ImageType' : 'jpg',
'Url' : 'http://qcimage.com',
},
'Prices' : {
'CurrencySymbol' : '$',
'RetailCents' : '1500',
'DiscountCents' : '500',
},
'Comments' : {
'Type' : 'Packaging',
'CommentText' : 'Other Custom Sticker',
}
}]
)
```

### Update shipping info:

```python
s.update(
OrderId='CustomerOrderNumber',
OrderInfo={
'FirstName': 'Bob',
# ...
}
)
```

### Cancel an order:

```python
s.cancel('CustomerOrderNumber')
```

# Conventions

Upper-case keyword arguments are passed directly to the API; lower-case ones
fiddle with the library's configuration. Strings or numbers may be used.
Date objects may be specified for OrderDate, and instead of the two-character
shorthand specified by the API, ShippingMethod may be specified as a more human
readable string.
