Dfns Python SDK - Auto-generated from OpenAPI specification

Dfns Python SDK

Auto-generated Python SDK for the Dfns API.

Installation

pip install dfns_sdk

Or install from source:

pip install -e .

Quick Start

from dfns_sdk import DfnsClient, DfnsClientConfig

# Configure the client
config = DfnsClientConfig(
    auth_token="your-auth-token",
    base_url="https://api.dfns.io",  # Optional, this is the default
)

# Create the client
client = DfnsClient(config)

# Use the client
wallets = client.wallets.list_wallets()
print(wallets)

# Clean up
client.close()

Using as a Context Manager

from dfns_sdk import DfnsClient, DfnsClientConfig

config = DfnsClientConfig(
    auth_token="your-auth-token",
)

with DfnsClient(config) as client:
    wallets = client.wallets.list_wallets()
    print(wallets)

User Action Signing

Some operations (like creating wallets or signing transactions) require user action signing. Configure a signer to enable these operations:

from dfns_sdk import DfnsClient, DfnsClientConfig, KeySigner

# Load your private key
with open("private_key.pem") as f:
    private_key = f.read()

# Create a signer
signer = KeySigner(
    credential_id="cr-xxx-xxx",  # Your credential ID
    private_key=private_key,
    app_origin="https://app.dfns.io",
)

# Configure the client with the signer
config = DfnsClientConfig(
    auth_token="your-auth-token",
    signer=signer,
)

with DfnsClient(config) as client:
    # Operations requiring signatures will automatically sign
    wallet = client.wallets.create_wallet({
        "network": "EthereumSepolia",
    })
    print(wallet)

Delegated Client (External Signing)

For service accounts that orchestrate signing externally (e.g., using a separate signing service), use the DfnsDelegatedClient. This client separates user action signing into *_init() and *_complete() method pairs:

from dfns_sdk import DfnsDelegatedClient, DfnsDelegatedClientConfig

# Configure the delegated client (no signer needed)
config = DfnsDelegatedClientConfig(
    auth_token="service-account-token",
)

with DfnsDelegatedClient(config) as client:
    # Step 1: Initialize the action (returns challenge)
    challenge = client.wallets.create_wallet_init(
        body={"network": "EthereumSepolia"}
    )

    # Step 2: Sign challenge externally (your signing system)
    # The challenge contains everything needed to sign:
    # - challenge["challenge"]: The challenge string to sign
    # - challenge["challengeIdentifier"]: Unique ID for this challenge
    signed_assertion = your_external_signer.sign(challenge)

    # Step 3: Complete the action with signed challenge
    wallet = client.wallets.create_wallet_complete(
        body={"network": "EthereumSepolia"},
        signed_challenge={
            "challengeIdentifier": challenge["challengeIdentifier"],
            "firstFactor": signed_assertion,
        },
    )
    print(wallet)

When to Use Delegated vs Regular Client

Use Case	Client Type
Single application with embedded signing	DfnsClient
Mobile app with local key storage	DfnsClient
Backend service with external HSM	DfnsDelegatedClient
Multi-step approval workflows	DfnsDelegatedClient
Service account orchestrating user actions	DfnsDelegatedClient

Available Domains

The client provides access to the following API domains:

• client.auth - Authentication and user management
• client.wallets - Wallet operations
• client.policies - Policy management
• client.permissions - Permission management
• client.webhooks - Webhook subscriptions
• And more...

Each domain provides typed methods for all available API endpoints.

Error Handling

from dfns_sdk import DfnsClient, DfnsClientConfig, DfnsError

config = DfnsClientConfig(auth_token="your-auth-token")
client = DfnsClient(config)

try:
    wallet = client.wallets.get_wallet(wallet_id="invalid-id")
except DfnsError as e:
    print(f"Error: {e.message}")
    print(f"Status: {e.status_code}")
    print(f"Code: {e.error_code}")
