browseapi-sandbox 0.5

eBay Browse API Python client

This package is a Python client for eBay Browse API. It is asynchronous and designed to send a large number of requests by one function call.

For more information about this API visit official documentation.

Installation

Install from PyPI by pip install browseapi_sandbox

Supported methods

Only these methods are now implemented (names changed to lowercase notation):

• search

• search_by_image

• get_item

• get_item_by_legacy_id

• get_items_by_item_group

• check_compatibility

Quickstart

Create a BrowseAPI instance with your application id (app_id) and application secret (cert_id) and start sending requests:

from browseapi import BrowseAPI

app_id = '<your_app_id>'
cert_id = '<your_cert_id>'

api = BrowseAPI(app_id, cert_id)
responses = api.execute('search', [{'q': 'drone', 'limit': 50}, {'category_ids': 20863}])

# this will make 'search' request two times with parameters
# q=drone and limit=50 for the first time and
# category_ids=20863 for the second time

print(responses[0].itemSummaries[0])

All response fields have similar names and types as those mentioned in official docs.

Tests

For running tests put your secret.json file with fields 'eb_app_id' and 'eb_cert_id' to the browseapi/tests directory, then run a command from the parent browseapi directory:

python -m unittest browseapi.tests.test_client

You may get warnings like this:

ResourceWarning: unclosed transport

Just ignore it.
