SDK Installation

The SDK can be installed with either pip or poetry package managers.

PIP

PIP is the default package installer for Python, enabling easy installation and management of packages from PyPI via the command line.

pip install codat-assess

Poetry

Poetry is a modern tool that simplifies dependency management and package publishing by using a single pyproject.toml file to handle project metadata and dependencies.

poetry add codat-assess

Example Usage

IDE Support

PyCharm

Generally, the SDK will work well with most IDEs out of the box. However, when using PyCharm, you can enjoy much better integration with Pydantic by installing an additional plugin.

SDK Example Usage

Example

# Synchronous Example
from codat_assess import CodatAssess
from codat_assess.models import operations

s = CodatAssess(
    auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)

s.reports.generate_loan_summary(request={
    "company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
    "source_type": operations.SourceType.ACCOUNTING,
})

# Use the SDK ...

The same SDK client can also be used to make asychronous requests by importing asyncio.

# Asynchronous Example
import asyncio
from codat_assess import CodatAssess
from codat_assess.models import operations

async def main():
    s = CodatAssess(
        auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
    )
    await s.reports.generate_loan_summary_async(request={
        "company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
        "source_type": operations.SourceType.ACCOUNTING,
    })
    # Use the SDK ...

asyncio.run(main())

Retries

Some of the endpoints in this SDK support retries. If you use the SDK without any configuration, it will fall back to the default retry strategy provided by the API. However, the default retry strategy can be overridden on a per-operation basis, or across the entire SDK.

To change the default retry strategy for a single API call, simply provide a RetryConfig object to the call:

from codat_assess import CodatAssess
from codat_assess.models import operations
from codatassess.utils import BackoffStrategy, RetryConfig

s = CodatAssess(
    auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)

s.reports.generate_loan_summary(request={
    "company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
    "source_type": operations.SourceType.ACCOUNTING,
},
    RetryConfig("backoff", BackoffStrategy(1, 50, 1.1, 100), False))

# Use the SDK ...

If you'd like to override the default retry strategy for all operations that support retries, you can use the retry_config optional parameter when initializing the SDK:

from codat_assess import CodatAssess
from codat_assess.models import operations
from codatassess.utils import BackoffStrategy, RetryConfig

s = CodatAssess(
    retry_config=RetryConfig("backoff", BackoffStrategy(1, 50, 1.1, 100), False),
    auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)

s.reports.generate_loan_summary(request={
    "company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
    "source_type": operations.SourceType.ACCOUNTING,
})

# Use the SDK ...

Error Handling

Handling errors in this SDK should largely match your expectations. All operations return a response object or raise an error. If Error objects are specified in your OpenAPI Spec, the SDK will raise the appropriate Error type.

Error Object Status Code Content Type
errors.ErrorMessage 401,402,403,404,429,500,503 application/json
errors.SDKError 4xx-5xx /

Example

from codat_assess import CodatAssess
from codat_assess.models import errors, operations

s = CodatAssess(
    auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)


try:
    s.reports.generate_loan_summary(request={
        "company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
        "source_type": operations.SourceType.ACCOUNTING,
    })

    # Use the SDK ...

except errors.ErrorMessage as e:
    # handle e.data: errors.ErrorMessageData
    raise(e)
except errors.SDKError as e:
    # handle exception
    raise(e)

Server Selection

Select Server by Index

You can override the default server globally by passing a server index to the server_idx: int optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected server will then be used as the default on the operations that use it. This table lists the indexes associated with the available servers:

# Server Variables
0 https://api.codat.io None

Example

from codat_assess import CodatAssess
from codat_assess.models import operations

s = CodatAssess(
    server_idx=0,
    auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)

s.reports.generate_loan_summary(request={
    "company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
    "source_type": operations.SourceType.ACCOUNTING,
})

# Use the SDK ...

Override Server URL Per-Client

The default server can also be overridden globally by passing a URL to the server_url: str optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

from codat_assess import CodatAssess
from codat_assess.models import operations

s = CodatAssess(
    server_url="https://api.codat.io",
    auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)

s.reports.generate_loan_summary(request={
    "company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
    "source_type": operations.SourceType.ACCOUNTING,
})

Custom HTTP Client

The Python SDK makes API calls using the httpx HTTP library. In order to provide a convenient way to configure timeouts, cookies, proxies, custom headers, and other low-level configuration, you can initialize the SDK client with your own HTTP client instance. Depending on whether you are using the sync or async version of the SDK, you can pass an instance of HttpClient or AsyncHttpClient respectively, which are Protocol's ensuring that the client has the necessary methods to make API calls. This allows you to wrap the client with your own custom logic, such as adding custom headers, logging, or error handling, or you can just pass an instance of httpx.Client or httpx.AsyncClient directly.

For example, you could specify a header for every request that this sdk makes as follows:

from codat_assess import CodatAssess
import httpx

http_client = httpx.Client(headers={"x-custom-header": "someValue"})
s = CodatAssess(client=http_client)

or you could wrap the client with your own custom logic:

from codat_assess import CodatAssess
from codat_assess.httpclient import AsyncHttpClient
import httpx

class CustomClient(AsyncHttpClient):
    client: AsyncHttpClient

    def __init__(self, client: AsyncHttpClient):
        self.client = client

    async def send(
        self,
        request: httpx.Request,
        *,
        stream: bool = False,
        auth: Union[
            httpx._types.AuthTypes, httpx._client.UseClientDefault, None
        ] = httpx.USE_CLIENT_DEFAULT,
        follow_redirects: Union[
            bool, httpx._client.UseClientDefault
        ] = httpx.USE_CLIENT_DEFAULT,
    ) -> httpx.Response:
        request.headers["Client-Level-Header"] = "added by client"

        return await self.client.send(
            request, stream=stream, auth=auth, follow_redirects=follow_redirects
        )

    def build_request(
        self,
        method: str,
        url: httpx._types.URLTypes,
        *,
        content: Optional[httpx._types.RequestContent] = None,
        data: Optional[httpx._types.RequestData] = None,
        files: Optional[httpx._types.RequestFiles] = None,
        json: Optional[Any] = None,
        params: Optional[httpx._types.QueryParamTypes] = None,
        headers: Optional[httpx._types.HeaderTypes] = None,
        cookies: Optional[httpx._types.CookieTypes] = None,
        timeout: Union[
            httpx._types.TimeoutTypes, httpx._client.UseClientDefault
        ] = httpx.USE_CLIENT_DEFAULT,
        extensions: Optional[httpx._types.RequestExtensions] = None,
    ) -> httpx.Request:
        return self.client.build_request(
            method,
            url,
            content=content,
            data=data,
            files=files,
            json=json,
            params=params,
            headers=headers,
            cookies=cookies,
            timeout=timeout,
            extensions=extensions,
        )

s = CodatAssess(async_client=CustomClient(httpx.AsyncClient()))

Authentication

Per-Client Security Schemes

This SDK supports the following security scheme globally:

Name Type Scheme
auth_header apiKey API key

To authenticate with the API the auth_header parameter must be set when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:

from codat_assess import CodatAssess
from codat_assess.models import operations

s = CodatAssess(
    auth_header="Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)",
)

s.reports.generate_loan_summary(request={
    "company_id": "8a210b68-6988-11ed-a1eb-0242ac120002",
    "source_type": operations.SourceType.ACCOUNTING,
})

Debugging

You can setup your SDK to emit debug logs for SDK requests and responses.

You can pass your own logger class directly into your SDK.

from codat_assess import CodatAssess
import logging

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
s = CodatAssess(debug_logger=logging.getLogger("codat_assess"))
