api-session 1.2.1

requests.Session to work with (JSON) APIs

api-session

api-session is a small module providing an extended requests.Session class to work with (JSON) APIs.

We use it at Bixoto as a basis for JSON API clients such as PyMagento.

Features

• base URL: the base API URL is given only once on object creation; subsequent calls use .get("/path")
• read-only flag: if given, prevents the API from doing POST and similar calls
• requests.Session inheritance: the class inherits from requests.Session, so it stays 100% compatible with it

Install

pip install api-session

Dependency: Python 3.8+.

Usage

from api_session import APISession

client = APISession("https://httpbin.org")

client.get_json_api("/get")
# => {...}
