A client library for accessing Benchling API

benchling-api-client

A client library for accessing Benchling API

Usage

First, create a client:

from benchling_api_client import Client

client = Client(base_url="https://api.example.com")

If the endpoints you're going to hit require authentication, use AuthenticatedClient instead:

from benchling_api_client import AuthenticatedClient

client = AuthenticatedClient(base_url="https://api.example.com", token="SuperSecretToken")

Now call your endpoint and use your models:

from benchling_api_client.models import MyDataModel
from benchling_api_client.api.my_tag import get_my_data_model

my_data: MyDataModel = get_my_data_model(client=client)

Or do the same thing with an async version:

from benchling_api_client.models import MyDataModel
from benchling_api_client.async_api.my_tag import get_my_data_model

my_data: MyDataModel = await get_my_data_model(client=client)

Things to know:

1. Every path/method combo becomes a Python function with type annotations.
2. All path/query params, and bodies become method arguments.
3. If your endpoint had any tags on it, the first tag will be used as a module name for the function (my_tag above)
4. Any endpoint which did not have a tag will be in benchling_api_client.api.default
5. If the API returns a response code that was not declared in the OpenAPI document, a benchling_api_client.api.errors.ApiResponseError wil be raised with the response attribute set to the httpx.Response that was received.

Building / publishing this Client

This project uses Poetry to manage dependencies and packaging. Here are the basics:

1. Update the metadata in pyproject.toml (e.g. authors, version)
2. If you're using a private repository, configure it with Poetry
   1. poetry config repositories.<your-repository-name> <url-to-your-repository>
   2. poetry config http-basic.<your-repository-name> <username> <password>
3. Publish the client with poetry publish --build -r <your-repository-name> or, if for public PyPI, just poetry publish --build

If you want to install this client into another project without publishing it (e.g. for development) then:

1. If that project is using Poetry, you can simply do poetry add <path-to-this-client> from that project
2. If that project is not using Poetry:
   1. Build a wheel with poetry build -f wheel
   2. Install that wheel from the other project pip install <path-to-wheel>
