pip install altan

Quick Start

Integration

import asyncio
from altan import Integration

async def main():
    # Initialize the SDK with your API key
    integration = Integration(altan_api_key="your-api-key-here")
    
    # Create connections for any platform using connection_id
    instagram = integration("your-instagram-connection-id")
    salesforce = integration("your-salesforce-connection-id")
    slack = integration("your-slack-connection-id")
    
    # Execute an action on Instagram
    result = await instagram.execute(
        action_name="post_photo",
        payload={
            "image_url": "https://example.com/image.jpg",
            "caption": "Hello from Altan SDK!"
        }
    )
    
    print(f"Success: {result['success']}")
    print(f"Data: {result['data']}")
    
    # Execute an action on Salesforce
    sf_result = await salesforce.execute(
        action_name="create_lead",
        payload={
            "first_name": "John",
            "last_name": "Doe",
            "email": "[e-mail]"
        }
    )
    
    # Close connections when done
    await integration.close_all_connections()

# Run the async function
asyncio.run(main())

Using Context Managers

import asyncio
from altan_sdk import Integration

async def main():
    async with Integration(altan_api_key="your-api-key-here") as integration:
        # Use any connection by its ID
        instagram = integration("your-instagram-connection-id")
        
        result = await instagram.execute(
            action_name="get_profile",
            payload={}
        )
        
        print(result)

asyncio.run(main())

Database

import asyncio
from altan import Database

async def main():
    # Initialize Database client
    db = Database(
        altan_api_key="your-api-key",
        database_id="your-database-uuid"
    )
    
    # Query with PostgREST-style interface
    result = await (db.from_table("to_do")
                   .select("id,task_name,status,priority")
                   .eq("status", "pending")
                   .order_by("created_at", ascending=False)
                   .limit(10)
                   .execute())
    
    print(f"Found {len(result['data'])} pending tasks")
    
    # Insert new task
    new_task = {
        "task_name": "Implement user authentication",
        "status": "pending",
        "priority": "high"
    }
    result = await db.insert("to_do", new_task)
    
    # Update task status
    if result['success']:
        task_id = result['data']['id']
        await db.update("to_do", {"status": "in_progress"}, {"id": task_id})
    
    await db.close()

asyncio.run(main())

Features

• Integration Management: Easy access to various social media and platform integrations
• Database Operations: PostgREST-style database queries with chainable interface
• Action Execution: Execute actions on connected platforms
• Error Handling: Comprehensive error handling with custom exceptions
• Async Support: Built with async/await for efficient I/O operations
• Type Hints: Full type hint support for better development experience

Flexible Connection Support

The SDK supports any connection available in your Altan account (5000+ integrations):

# Create connections using their connection IDs
instagram = integration("instagram_connection_id")
salesforce = integration("salesforce_connection_id") 
slack = integration("slack_connection_id")
hubspot = integration("hubspot_connection_id")
shopify = integration("shopify_connection_id")
# ... and any other connection you have configured

# Alternative syntax (equivalent)
connection = integration.connection("any_connection_id")

Error Handling

from altan_sdk import Integration, AltanAPIError, AltanConnectionError

async def main():
    integration = Integration(altan_api_key="your-api-key")
    connection = integration("your-connection-id")
    
    try:
        result = await connection.execute("action_name", {"key": "value"})
    except AltanAPIError as e:
        print(f"API Error: {e}")
        print(f"Status Code: {e.status_code}")
        print(f"Response Data: {e.response_data}")
    except AltanConnectionError as e:
        print(f"Connection Error: {e}")

Database Operations

The Database SDK provides a PostgREST-style interface for database operations:

Query Building

# Select with filters and ordering
result = await (db.from_table("invoices")
               .select("id,amount,status,created_at")
               .eq("status", "paid")              # WHERE status = 'paid'
               .gt("amount", 100)                 # AND amount > 100
               .order_by("created_at", False)     # ORDER BY created_at DESC
               .limit(10)                         # LIMIT 10
               .execute())

# Available filters: eq, neq, gt, gte, lt, lte, like, ilike, is_null, not_null, in_
# Pagination: limit(), offset()
# Single record: single() - expects exactly one result

CRUD Operations

# INSERT - Single record
result = await db.insert("to_do", {
    "task_name": "Complete project documentation",
    "status": "pending",
    "priority": "high"
})

# INSERT - Bulk records
bulk_tasks = [
    {"task_name": "Setup CI/CD pipeline", "priority": "medium"},
    {"task_name": "Write unit tests", "priority": "high"},
    {"task_name": "Deploy to production", "priority": "low"}
]
result = await db.insert("to_do", bulk_tasks)

# UPDATE
result = await db.update("to_do", 
    {"status": "completed"}, 
    {"id": task_id})

# DELETE
result = await db.delete("to_do", {"id": task_id})

Real-World Example - Task Management

async def manage_tasks():
    """Complete task management example with error handling"""
    
    async with Database(
        altan_api_key="your-api-key",
        database_id="your-database-id"
    ) as db:
        try:
            # Get high-priority pending tasks
            urgent_tasks = await (db.from_table("to_do")
                                 .select("id,task_name,status,priority,created_at")
                                 .eq("priority", "high")
                                 .neq("status", "completed")
                                 .order_by("created_at", False)
                                 .limit(5)
                                 .execute())
            
            print(f"Found {len(urgent_tasks['data'])} urgent tasks")
            
            # Create a new task
            new_task = {
                "task_name": "Review security protocols",
                "status": "pending", 
                "priority": "high"
            }
            
            result = await db.insert("to_do", new_task)
            if result['success']:
                task_id = result['data']['id']
                print(f"✅ Created task: {task_id}")
                
                # Mark task as in progress
                await db.update("to_do", 
                               {"status": "in_progress"}, 
                               {"id": task_id})
                print(f"📝 Task {task_id} marked as in progress")
            
            # Get task statistics
            for status in ['pending', 'in_progress', 'completed']:
                count_result = await (db.from_table("to_do")
                                     .select("id")
                                     .eq("status", status)
                                     .execute())
                print(f"{status.title()}: {len(count_result['data'])} tasks")
                
        except Exception as e:
            print(f"Error managing tasks: {e}")

# Run the task management example
asyncio.run(manage_tasks())

🔄 PostgREST Compatibility

The Database SDK follows Supabase/PostgREST semantics exactly:

Feature	Supabase	Altan SDK	Status
Chainable Queries	table().select().eq()	from_table().select().eq()	✅
Filters	eq, neq, gt, gte, lt, lte	eq, neq, gt, gte, lt, lte	✅
Pattern Matching	like, ilike	like, ilike	✅
Null Checks	is, not.is	is_null, not_null	✅
Ordering	order()	order_by()	✅
Pagination	limit, offset	limit, offset	✅
Single Record	single()	single()	✅

Migration from Supabase is seamless - just change the client initialization!
