Generic API Client

Interact with APIs through methods and Pydantic models.

Features

• Interact with an API through Pydantic models and python methods:

  • Each endpoint can be associated to a python method
  • Allow developers to use complex APIs with the static evaluation of the code performed by IDEs
• Comprehensive API collections using Jinja templates
• Handle API versions via template and Pydantic Model
• Cache built to handle write and read requests

Documentation

A dedicated docs/ directory contains markdown files that serve as a lightweight wiki, covering:

• Overview of the library
