dhis2w-client

Pure async DHIS2 API client for Python. Pluggable auth (Basic / PAT / OAuth2-OIDC PKCE), pydantic-typed models from both /api/schemas and /api/openapi.json codegen, retry policy, period math, analytics helper. DHIS2 v41, v42, and v43.

Standalone — no profile system, no plugin runtime. Drop it in any async Python project that needs to talk to a DHIS2 instance.

Install

# Inside a uv-managed project
uv add dhis2w-client

Quickstart

from dhis2w_client import BasicAuth, Dhis2Client

async with Dhis2Client(
    base_url="https://play.im.dhis2.org/dev-2-43",
    auth=BasicAuth(username="admin", password="district"),
) as client:
    me = await client.system.me()
    print(me.username)

    elements = await client.resources.data_elements.list(fields="id,name", page_size=10)
    for de in elements:
        print(de.id, de.name)

PAT and OAuth2 (with token caching + refresh) work the same way:

from dhis2w_client import Dhis2Client, OAuth2Auth

auth = OAuth2Auth(
    base_url="https://dhis2.example.org",
    client_id="my-app",
    client_secret="...",
    scope="ALL",
    redirect_uri="http://localhost:8765",
    token_store=my_token_store,
    store_key="profile:prod",
)
async with Dhis2Client("https://dhis2.example.org", auth=auth) as client:
    ...

What's in the box

  • Async HTTP via httpx with a pluggable retry transport (429 / 502 / 503 / 504 with Retry-After honoring).
  • Typed metadata accessors for every resource DHIS2 exposes via /api/schemas — generated per DHIS2 version under dhis2w_client.generated.v{41,42,43}.
  • Tracker read + write helpers (client.tracker.register / enroll / event_create / outstanding).
  • Analyticsclient.analytics.aggregate(dx=..., pe=..., ou=...) -> Grid for parsed responses, stream_to(...) for very large pivots.
  • Period mathparse_period, next_period_id, previous_period_id, period_start_end across all six absolute period shapes.
  • Pluggable authBasicAuth, PatAuth, OAuth2Auth. Add your own by implementing the AuthProvider Protocol.
  • Bulk operationspatch_bulk, apply_sharing_bulk, with explicit concurrency cap (asyncio.Semaphore).

The dhis2w-client package is one member of the dhis2w-utils workspace. The CLI (dhis2w-cli), MCP server (dhis2w-mcp), and Playwright helpers (dhis2w-browser) all build on this client.
