Example Code

# See configuration.py for a list of all supported configuration parameters.

# Examples for each supported authentication method are below,
# choose one that satisfies your use case.

# (Preferred) OAuth 2.0: FactSetOAuth2
# See https://github.com/FactSet/enterprise-sdk#oauth-20
# for information on how to create the app-config.json file
#
# The confidential client instance should be reused in production environments.
# See https://github.com/FactSet/enterprise-sdk-utils-python#authentication
# for more information on using the ConfidentialClient class
configuration = fds.sdk.SPAREngine.Configuration(
    fds_oauth_client=ConfidentialClient('/path/to/app-config.json')
)

# Basic authentication: FactSetApiKey
# See https://github.com/FactSet/enterprise-sdk#api-key
# for information how to create an API key
# configuration = fds.sdk.SPAREngine.Configuration(
#     username='USERNAME-SERIAL',
#     password='API-KEY'
# )

# Enter a context with an instance of the API client
with fds.sdk.SPAREngine.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
    # Create an instance of the API class
    api_instance = accounts_api.AccountsApi(api_client)
    path = "Client:" # str | The directory to get the accounts and sub-directories.

    try:
        # Get accounts and sub-directories in a directory
        # example passing only required values which don't have defaults set
        api_response = api_instance.get_accounts(path)

        pprint(api_response)
    except fds.sdk.SPAREngine.ApiException as e:
        print("Exception when calling AccountsApi->get_accounts: %s\n" % e)

    # # Get response, http status code and response headers
    # try:
    #     # Get accounts and sub-directories in a directory
    #     api_response, http_status_code, response_headers = api_instance.get_accounts_with_http_info(path)


    #     pprint(api_response)
    #     pprint(http_status_code)
    #     pprint(response_headers)
    # except fds.sdk.SPAREngine.ApiException as e:
    #     print("Exception when calling AccountsApi->get_accounts: %s\n" % e)

    # # Get response asynchronous
    # try:
    #     # Get accounts and sub-directories in a directory
    #     async_result = api_instance.get_accounts_async(path)
    #     api_response = async_result.get()


    #     pprint(api_response)
    # except fds.sdk.SPAREngine.ApiException as e:
    #     print("Exception when calling AccountsApi->get_accounts: %s\n" % e)

    # # Get response, http status code and response headers asynchronous
    # try:
    #     # Get accounts and sub-directories in a directory
    #     async_result = api_instance.get_accounts_with_http_info_async(path)
    #     api_response, http_status_code, response_headers = async_result.get()


    #     pprint(api_response)
    #     pprint(http_status_code)
    #     pprint(response_headers)
    # except fds.sdk.SPAREngine.ApiException as e:
    #     print("Exception when calling AccountsApi->get_accounts: %s\n" % e)

Using Pandas

To convert an API response to a Pandas DataFrame, it is necessary to transform it first to a dictionary.

import pandas as pd

response_dict = api_response.to_dict()['data']

simple_json_response = pd.DataFrame(response_dict)
nested_json_response = pd.json_normalize(response_dict)

Debugging

The SDK uses the standard library logging module.

Setting debug to True on an instance of the Configuration class sets the log-level of related packages to DEBUG and enables additional logging in Pythons HTTP Client.

Note: This prints out sensitive information (e.g. the full request and response). Use with care.

import logging
import fds.sdk.SPAREngine

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

configuration = fds.sdk.SPAREngine.Configuration(...)
configuration.debug = True

Configure a Proxy

You can pass proxy settings to the Configuration class:

• proxy: The URL of the proxy to use.
• proxy_headers: a dictionary to pass additional headers to the proxy (e.g. Proxy-Authorization).

import fds.sdk.SPAREngine

configuration = fds.sdk.SPAREngine.Configuration(
    # ...
    proxy="http://secret:password@localhost:5050",
    proxy_headers={
        "Custom-Proxy-Header": "Custom-Proxy-Header-Value"
    }
)

Custom SSL Certificate

TLS/SSL certificate verification can be configured with the following Configuration parameters:

• ssl_ca_cert: a path to the certificate to use for verification in PEM format.
• verify_ssl: setting this to False disables the verification of certificates. Disabling the verification is not recommended, but it might be useful during local development or testing.

import fds.sdk.SPAREngine

configuration = fds.sdk.SPAREngine.Configuration(
    # ...
    ssl_ca_cert='/path/to/ca.pem'
)

Request Retries

In case the request retry behaviour should be customized, it is possible to pass a urllib3.Retry object to the retry property of the Configuration.

from urllib3 import Retry
import fds.sdk.SPAREngine

configuration = fds.sdk.SPAREngine.Configuration(
    # ...
)

configuration.retries = Retry(total=3, status_forcelist=[500, 502, 503, 504])

STACH extensions

Some methods within this client library are able to return STACH formatted data. Please see the documentation of those endpoints on how to enable and use STACH formatted data.

Documentation of the STACH extension can be found here: stach-extensions and here STACH schema

Notes for Large OpenAPI documents

If the OpenAPI document is large, imports in fds.sdk.SPAREngine.apis and fds.sdk.SPAREngine.models may fail with a RecursionError indicating the maximum recursion limit has been exceeded. In that case, there are a couple of solutions:

Solution 1: Use specific imports for apis and models like:

• from fds.sdk.SPAREngine.api.default_api import DefaultApi
• from fds.sdk.SPAREngine.model.pet import Pet

Solution 2: Before importing the package, adjust the maximum recursion limit as shown below:

import sys
sys.setrecursionlimit(1500)
import fds.sdk.SPAREngine
from fds.sdk.SPAREngine.apis import *
from fds.sdk.SPAREngine.models import *
