amadeus 1.0.0b7

Python module for the Amadeus travel APIs

Amadeus provides a set of APIs for the travel industry. Flights, Hotels, Locations and more.

For more details see the Python documentation on Amadeus.com and the class reference here on GitHub.

Installation

This SDK requires Python 2.7+ or 3.3+. You can install install it directly with pip.

pip install amadeus==1.0.0b6

Next: Get Started with the Python SDK.

Getting Started

To make your first API call you will need to register for an Amadeus Developer Account and set up your first application.

from amadeus import Client, ResponseError

amadeus = Client(
    client_id='[YOUR_CLIENT_ID]',
    client_secret='[YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET]'
)

try:
    response = amadeus.reference_data.urls.checkin_links.get(airline='1X')
    print(response.data)
    # => [{'type': 'checkin-link', 'id': '1XEN-GBWeb', 'href': 'https://www....
except ResponseError as error:
    print(error)

Next: Learn more about checkin links with our Python SDK.

Initialization

The client can be initialized directly.

# Initialize using parameters
amadeus = Client(client_id='...', client_secret='...')

Alternatively it can be initialized without any paramters if the environment variables AMADEUS_CLIENT_ID and AMADEUS_CLIENT_SECRET are present.

amadeus = Client()

Your credentials can be found on the Amadeus dashboard. Sign up for an account today.

By default the environment for the SDK is the test environment. To switch to a production (paid-for) environment please switch the hostname as follows:

amadeus = Client(hostname='production')

Next: Learn more about our initializing the Python SDK in our documentation.

Documentation

Amadeus has a large set of APIs, and our documentation is here to get you started today.

• Get Started documentation

  • Initialize the SDK

  • Find an Airport

  • Book a Flight

  • Get Flight Inspiration

Alternatively, head over to our Reference documentation for in-depth information about every SDK method, it’s arguments and return types.

Additionally, this SDK has extensive documentation of itself available on GitHub.

Making API calls

This library conveniently maps every API path to a similar path.

For example, GET /v2/reference-data/urls/checkin-links?airline=1X would be:

amadeus.reference_data.urls.checkin_links.get(airline='1X')

Similarly, to select a resource by ID, you can pass in the ID to the singular path.

For example, GET /v1/shopping/hotels/123/hotel-offers would be:

amadeus.hotel(123).hotel_offers.get(...)

You can make any arbitrary API call as well directly with the .get method:

amadeus.get('/v2/reference-data/urls/checkin-links', airline='1X')

Response

Every API call returns a Response object. If the API call contained a JSON response it will parse the JSON into the .result attribute. If this data also contains a data key, it will make that available as the .data attribute. The raw body of the response is always avaulable as the .body attribute.

from amadeus import Location

response = amadeus.reference_data.locations.get(
    keyword='LON',
    subType=Location.ANY
)

print(reponse.body) #=> The raw response, as a string
print(reponse.result) #=> The body parsed as JSON, if the result was parsable
print(response.data) #=> The list of locations, extracted from the JSON

Pagination

If an API endpoint supports pagination, the other pages are available under the .next, .previous, .last and .first methods.

from amadeus import Location

response = amadeus.reference_data.locations.get(
    keyword='LON',
    subType=Location.ANY
)

amadeus.next(response) #=> returns a new response for the next page

If a page is not available, the method will return None.

Logging & Debugging

The SDK makes it easy to add your own logger.

import logging

logger = logging.getLogger('your_logger')
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

amadeus = Client(
    client_id='...',
    client_secret='...',
    logger=logger
)

Additionally, to enable more verbose logging, you can set the appropriate level on your own logger, though the easiest way would be to enable debugging via a parameter on initialization, or using the AMADEUS_LOG_LEVEL environment variable.

amadeus = Client(
    client_id='...',
    client_secret='...',
    log_level='debug'
)
