Python API for interacting with a xyz-hole instance. You know the thing that is blocking Ads by manipulating your DNS requests and run on your single board computer or on other hardware with different operating systems.

This module supports both v5 and v6 versions of the API through a unified interface. Simply specify the version when creating your client:

from hole import Hole

# For v6 (default)
client = Hole("YOUR_API_TOKEN")

# For v5
client_v5 = Hole("YOUR_API_TOKEN", version=5)

This module is consuming the details provided by the endpoint api.php and other API endpoints available in v5 and v6.

If you wonder why the weird name and that the usage of xzy-hole instead of the real name, please contact the trademark holder. They were unhappy with original name of the module and came up with very funny ideas which were not feasible or match the existing naming standards. Also, it should remind us that a community is a vital part of every Open Source project.

This module is not supported or endorsed by that particular trademark holder. The development happens independently, they are not providing resources and the module may no longer work if they breaking their API endpoint.
