python-demandapi-client

A Python client library for the Dynata Demand API. There are also go and .NET clients available.

Setup

You can install the Demand API client with:

pip install dynatademand

You can provide your Demand API credentials in a couple of ways. They can be set in the environment (a sample config is provided in .env-example) or you can provide them while creating the client object.

Example Usage

# You can optionally provide your credentials here instead of environment variables.
demandapi = DemandAPIClient("client_id", "username", "password")
demandapi.authenticate()

# Any function requiring one or more IDs should be provided as positional arguments.
demandapi.get_project(7)

# Provide query parameters as keyword-arguments.
demandapi.get_projects(state="LAUNCHED")

# Functions that send data in a request body accept a python dictionary.
# Your data will be validated against the schemas provided in the Demand API documentation.
project_data = {
  'title': 'My New Survey',
  ...
}
demandapi.create_project(project_data)

Testing

To run the tests, you will need to install the development requirements to your environment. It's recommended to create a virtual environment for your installation to avoid any package conflicts.

You can check out the code by running:

git clone https://github.com/dynata/python-demandapi-client.git
cd python-demandapi-client

And you can create an environment by running:

# If you're using Python 2.7
virtualenv venv

# Or if you're using Python 3:
python3 -m venv venv

source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

While your virtual environment is activated, you can run pytest tests to run the tests.
