Project description


Abstract APIs

The abstract_apis module is designed to facilitate HTTP requests in Python applications, particularly those that require handling JSON data, dealing with custom API endpoints, and parsing complex nested JSON responses. The module simplifies request handling by abstracting away common tasks such as header management, URL construction, and response parsing.

Features

  • Header Management: Automatically prepares headers suitable for JSON requests.
  • URL Construction: Helps in constructing URLs by cleanly appending endpoints to base URLs.
  • Nested JSON Parsing: Capable of parsing deeply nested JSON responses automatically to facilitate easy data extraction.
  • Flexible Response Handling: Offers functions to handle both raw and parsed JSON responses based on user preference.
  • Error Handling: Provides robust error reporting to aid in troubleshooting issues during HTTP requests.

Installation

This module is not yet available on PyPI. To install, you can clone the repository and install it manually:

git clone https://github.com/AbstractEndeavors/abstract_apis.git
cd abstract_apis
python setup.py install

Usage

Making a GET Request

from abstract_apis import getGetRequest

url = 'https://api.example.com'
endpoint = 'data'
params = {'key': 'value'}
response = getGetRequest(url, data=params, endpoint=endpoint)
print(response)

Making a POST Request

from abstract_apis import getPostRequest

url = 'https://api.example.com'
endpoint = 'submit'
data = {'key': 'value'}
response = getPostRequest(url, data=data, endpoint=endpoint)
print(response)

Handling Nested JSON

The module automatically parses nested JSON responses if enabled:

response = getGetRequest(url, data=params, endpoint=endpoint, load_nested_json=True)
print(response)

Dependencies

  • Python 3.6 or higher
  • requests library

Make sure you have the requests library installed:
