Project description
CRUDs
CRUDs is a simple high level library for Humans, inspired by Python Requests and written using URLLib3 Team.
>>> import cruds
>>> catfact_ninja = cruds.Client(host="https://catfact.ninja/")
>>> data = catfact_ninja.read("fact")
>>> print(data)
Interact with RESTful APIs using Create, Read, Update and Delete requests quickly, easily, and safely.
Features:
- Authentication with a bearer token or username and password
- Data serialization/deserialize (Only JSON format)
- Request parameters as Dictionaries and automatically URL encoded
- Default connection timeout (300 seconds)
- Raises exceptions on bad status codes (Can be white listed)
- Retries with back-off
- SSL Verification
- Logging for monitoring
- Interfaces as Configuration
Installation
To install a stable version use PyPI.
pip install cruds
Usage
All features can be adjusted on the Client to suit most needs.
from cruds import Client
# Authentication with Username and Password
api = Client(host="https://localhost/api/v1/",
auth=("username", "password"))
# Authentication with Token
api = Client(host="https://localhost/api/v1/",
auth="bearer-token")
# Send and receive raw data and ignore bad status codes
api = Client(host="https://localhost/api/v1/",
serialize=False,
raise_status=False)
# Disable SSL Verification
api = Client(host="https://localhost/api/v1/",
verify_ssl=False)
Logging
If you want to see logging set the level using the standard logging interface. DEBUG will show you URLLib3, but INFO will give you general information from the CRUDs Client.
import logging
import cruds
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
Extensibility
The library has been created with extensibility in mind. There is two ways that this can be done:
- Subclass the Client and add methods
- Interface as Configuration (More Advanced)
Subclass Client
The approach is to create a new class and add the logic requirements needed to make the requests.
from cruds import Client
class CatFactNinja(Client):
"""Cat Fact Ninja Interface"""
_fact_uri = "fact"
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
host = "http://catfact.ninja/"
super().__init__(host=host, **kwargs)
@property
def fact(self):
""" Get a Fact about Cats"""
return self.read(self._fact_uri)
cat = CatFactNinja()
print(cat.fact)
Interface as Configuration
CRUDs supports creating interfaces with large amounts of models as configuration. This significantly reduces the amount of python coding needed, and the common methods can be reused.
Within the CRUDs package pre-configured Interfaces have been created. To use an
Interface import them from cruds.interfaces
Currently available:
- Planhat - https://docs.planhat.com/
Example:
from cruds.interfaces.planhat import Planhat
planhat = Planhat(api_token="9PhAfMO3WllHUmmhJA4eO3tJPhDck1aKLvQ5osvNUfKYdJ7H")
help(planhat)
To Do List
- OAuth Client for Authentication
- Interfaces as Configuration
