Gigya Server Lib (gslib) is a python adaptation of the Gigya Server SDK to python.

Typical Usage

Properly initialized, gslib is very simple to use:

# Make a request to gigya (retrieve a user's data from GCS)
gslib.Request('gcs.getUserData',
              params={"UID": '<user UID>', "fields": "*"},
              use_https=True).send()

# Verify an event's signature (gigya_dict contains a json response
# loaded to a dict with json.loads)
# See: http://bit.ly/NZ2Bpc
gslib.SigUtils.signature_validate(gigya_dict['signatureTimestamp'],
                                    gigya_dict['UID'],
                                    gigya_dict['UIDSignature'])

Installation

To install Gigya Server Lib, simply:

$ pip install gigya-server-lib

Or, if you’re running on an old and busted environment:

$ easy_install gigya-server-lib

Initialization

If used inside a django application gslib will automatically look for the following settings:

settings.GIGYA_API_KEY
settings.GIGYA_SECRET_KEY

If used inside a flask application, initialization can be done by calling gslib.initialize_app, gslib will expect similar keys on the flask app’s config (GIGYA_API_KEY and GIGYA_SECRET_KEY).

Otherwise the api key and secret key can be sent as arguments to the constructor of a gslib.Request.
