exchangelib 1.7.2

Client for Microsoft Exchange Web Services (EWS)

This module provides an well-performing, well-behaving, platform-independent and simple interface for communicating with a Microsoft Exchange 2007-2016 Server or Office365 using Exchange Web Services (EWS). It currently implements autodiscover, and functions for searching, creating, updating, deleting, exporting and uploading calendar, mailbox, task and contact items.

Usage

Here is a simple example that inserts, retrieves and deletes calendar items in an Exchange calendar:

from exchangelib import DELEGATE, IMPERSONATION, Account, Credentials, \
    EWSDateTime, EWSTimeZone, Configuration, NTLM, CalendarItem, Q
from exchangelib.folders import Calendar

year, month, day = 2016, 3, 20
tz = EWSTimeZone.timezone('Europe/Copenhagen')

# Build a list of calendar items
calendar_items = []
for hour in range(7, 17):
    calendar_items.append(CalendarItem(
        start=tz.localize(EWSDateTime(year, month, day, hour, 30)),
        end=tz.localize(EWSDateTime(year, month, day, hour + 1, 15)),
        subject='Test item',
        body='Hello from Python',
        location='devnull',
        categories=['foo', 'bar'],
    ))

# Username in WINDOMAIN\username format. Office365 wants usernames in PrimarySMTPAddress
# ('[e-mail]') format. UPN format is also supported.
#
# By default, fault-tolerant error handling is used. This means that calls may block for a long time
# if the server is unavailable. If you need immediate failures, add 'is_service_account=False' to
# Credentials.
credentials = Credentials(username='MYWINDOMAIN\\myusername', password='topsecret')

# If your credentials have been given impersonation access to the target account, use
# access_type=IMPERSONATION
account = Account(primary_smtp_address='[e-mail]', credentials=credentials,
                  autodiscover=True, access_type=DELEGATE)

# If the server doesn't support autodiscover, use a Configuration object to set the
# server location:
# config = Configuration(
#     server='mail.example.com',
#     credentials=Credentials(username='MYWINDOMAIN\\myusername', password='topsecret'),
#     auth_type=NTLM
# )
# account = Account(primary_smtp_address='[e-mail]', config=config,
#                   access_type=DELEGATE)


# Create the calendar items in the user's standard calendar.  If you want to access a
# non-standard calendar, choose a different one from account.folders[Calendar]
#
# bulk_update() and bulk_delete() methods are also supported.
res = account.calendar.bulk_create(calendar_items)
print(res)

# Get the calendar items we just created. We filter by categories so we only get the items created by
# us. The syntax for filter() is modeled after Django QuerySet filters.
#
# If you need more complex filtering, filter() also accepts a Python-like search expression:
#
# items = my_folder.filter(
#       "start < '2016-01-02T03:04:05T' and end > '2016-01-01T03:04:05T' and categories in ('foo', 'bar')"
# )
#
# filter() also support Q objects that are modeled after Django Q objects.
#
# q = (Q(subject__iexact='foo') | Q(subject__contains='bar')) & ~Q(subject__startswith='baz')
# items = my_folder.filter(q)
#
# A large part of the Django QuerySet API is supported. The QuerySet doesn't fetch anything before the QuerySet is
# iterated. The QuerySet returns an iterator, and results are cached when the QuerySet is iterated the first time.
# Examples:
#
# all_items = my_folder.all()
# all_items_without_caching = my_folder.all().iterator()
# filtered_items = my_folder.filter(subject__contains='foo').exclude(categories__contains='bar')
# sparse_items = my_folder.all().only('subject', 'start')
# status_report = my_folder.all().delete()
# items_for_2017 = my_calendar.filter(start__range=(EWSDateTime(2016, 1, 1), EWSDateTime(2017, 1, 1)))
# item = my_folder.get(subject='unique_string')
# ordered_items = my_folder.all().order_by('subject')
# n = my_folder.all().count()
# folder_is_empty = not my_folder.all().exists()
# ids_as_dict = my_folder.all().values('item_id', 'changekey')
# ids_as_list = my_folder.all().values_list('item_id', 'changekey')
# all_subjects = my_folder.all().values_list('subject', flat=True)
#
items = account.calendar.filter(
    start__lt=tz.localize(EWSDateTime(year, month, day + 1)),
    end__gt=tz.localize(EWSDateTime(year, month, day)),
    categories__contains=['foo', 'bar'],
)
for item in items:
    print(item.start, item.end, item.subject, item.body, item.location)

# Delete the calendar items we found
res = items.delete()
print(res)

# You can also create, update and delete single items
item = CalendarItem(folder=account.calendar, subject='foo')
item.save()
item.subject = 'bar'
item.save()
item.delete()
