pip install .

Quick start

Sync client

from vchasno import Vchasno

with Vchasno(token="your-api-token") as client:
    # List signed documents
    docs = client.documents.list(status=7008)
    for doc in docs.documents:
        print(f"{doc.title} — {doc.status_text}")

    # Upload a document
    result = client.documents.upload(
        "invoice.pdf",
        recipient_edrpou="12345678",
        category=2,
    )

    # Check counterparty registration
    info = client.company.check(edrpou="12345678")
    print(f"{info.name}: registered={info.is_registered}")

Async client

import asyncio
from vchasno import AsyncVchasno

async def main():
    async with AsyncVchasno(token="your-api-token") as client:
        docs = await client.documents.list(status=7008)
        incoming = await client.documents.list_incoming()
        print(f"Outgoing: {len(docs.documents)}, Incoming: {len(incoming.documents)}")

asyncio.run(main())

Authentication

Generate an API token in Vchasno.EDO settings. The token is sent as Authorization: <token> header.

client = Vchasno(token="your-api-token")

Optionally override the base URL and timeout:

client = Vchasno(
    token="your-api-token",
    base_url="https://edo.vchasno.ua",  # default
    timeout=60.0,                        # seconds, default 30
    max_retries=5,                       # retry on 429, default 3
)

API reference

All endpoints are accessible as attributes of the client object. Each group provides both sync and async versions.

Enums

from vchasno.models.enums import (
    DocumentStatus,
    DocumentCategory,
    FirstSignBy,
    ReviewState,
    StructuredDataStatus,
    DeleteRequestStatus,
    CloudSignerSessionStatus,
    AccessSettingsLevel,
)

# Document statuses
DocumentStatus.UPLOADED          # 7000
DocumentStatus.READY_TO_SIGN     # 7001
DocumentStatus.FULLY_SIGNED      # 7008
DocumentStatus.ANNULLED          # 7011

# Document categories
DocumentCategory.CONTRACT        # 3
DocumentCategory.INVOICE         # 2
DocumentCategory.OTHER           # 15

Error handling

from vchasno import (
    Vchasno,
    VchasnoError,
    VchasnoAPIError,
    AuthenticationError,
    RateLimitError,
    NotFoundError,
    BadRequestError,
)

with Vchasno(token="xxx") as client:
    try:
        doc = client.documents.get("non-existent-id")
    except NotFoundError:
        print("Document not found")
    except AuthenticationError:
        print("Invalid or expired token")
    except RateLimitError:
        # Automatic retry handles most 429s;
        # this only fires after max_retries exhausted
        print("Rate limit exceeded after retries")
    except BadRequestError as e:
        print(f"Bad request: {e.response_body}")
    except VchasnoAPIError as e:
        print(f"API error {e.status_code}: {e}")
    except VchasnoError as e:
        print(f"SDK error: {e}")

Rate limiting

Vchasno API allows 10 requests/second per company. The SDK automatically retries 429 responses with exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s by default, configurable via max_retries).

Important notes

• Amounts are always in kopecks (1 UAH = 100 kopecks). Example: amount=1500000 means 15,000.00 UAH.
• Datetime format: YYYY-MM-DD or YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM.
• File limits: single file up to 15 MB; ZIP archive up to 500 files / 100 MB.
• Pagination: use cursor / next_cursor pattern for all list endpoints.
