Quick Start

import asyncio
from mashov import MashovClient

async def main():
    # Create a client instance
    async with MashovClient(
        username="YOUR_ID",
        password="YOUR_PASSWORD",
        semel="SCHOOL_CODE",
        year="2026"  # Optional, defaults to current year
    ) as client:
        # Login is handled automatically
        
        # Get student grades
        student_id = "YOUR_STUDENT_ID"
        grades = await client.get_grades(student_id)
        print(f"Grades: {grades}")

asyncio.run(main())

Usage Examples

Manual Login

If you prefer to control when login happens:

import asyncio
from mashov import MashovClient

async def main():
    client = MashovClient(
        username="YOUR_ID",
        password="YOUR_PASSWORD",
        semel="SCHOOL_CODE",
        auto_login=False  # Disable automatic login
    )
    
    try:
        # Manually login
        session = await client.login()
        print(f"Logged in successfully!")
        print(f"CSRF Token: {session.csrf_header_token}")
        
        # Now you can make API calls
        student_id = "YOUR_STUDENT_ID"
        grades = await client.get_grades(student_id)
        print(grades)
    finally:
        await client.close()

asyncio.run(main())

Get Student Grades

async def get_student_grades(client, student_id):
    """Fetch and display student grades."""
    grades = await client.get_grades(student_id)
    
    for grade in grades:
        print(f"Subject: {grade['subject']}")
        print(f"Grade: {grade['grade']}")
        print(f"Date: {grade['date']}")
        print("---")
    
    return grades

Get Weekly Timetable

async def get_weekly_schedule(client, student_id):
    """Fetch student's weekly timetable."""
    timetable = await client.get_timetable(student_id)
    
    for day in timetable:
        print(f"Day: {day['day']}")
        for lesson in day['lessons']:
            print(f"  {lesson['time']}: {lesson['subject']} - {lesson['teacher']}")
    
    return timetable

Get Homework Assignments

async def get_pending_homework(client, student_id):
    """Fetch all homework assignments."""
    homework = await client.get_homework(student_id)
    
    for assignment in homework:
        print(f"Subject: {assignment['subject']}")
        print(f"Description: {assignment['description']}")
        print(f"Due Date: {assignment['dueDate']}")
        print("---")
    
    return homework

Get Behavior Records

async def check_behavior(client, student_id):
    """Fetch behavior/discipline records."""
    behavior = await client.get_behavior(student_id)
    
    for record in behavior:
        print(f"Date: {record['date']}")
        print(f"Type: {record['type']}")
        print(f"Description: {record['description']}")
        print("---")
    
    return behavior

Get Mail Conversations

async def get_recent_messages(client, count=10):
    """Fetch recent mail conversations."""
    conversations = await client.get_conversations(skip=0, take=count)
    
    for conv in conversations:
        print(f"From: {conv['sender']}")
        print(f"Subject: {conv['subject']}")
        print(f"Date: {conv['date']}")
        print("---")
    
    return conversations

Get Available Schools

async def list_schools(client):
    """Fetch list of available schools (public endpoint)."""
    schools = await client.get_schools()
    
    for school in schools:
        print(f"Name: {school['name']}")
        print(f"Code (Semel): {school['semel']}")
        print(f"City: {school['city']}")
        print("---")
    
    return schools

Complete Example - Daily Student Report

import asyncio
from mashov import MashovClient

async def generate_daily_report(username, password, semel, student_id):
    """Generate a comprehensive daily report for a student."""
    
    async with MashovClient(username, password, semel) as client:
        print("=" * 50)
        print("DAILY STUDENT REPORT")
        print("=" * 50)
        
        # Get grades
        print("\n📊 GRADES:")
        grades = await client.get_grades(student_id)
        for grade in grades[:5]:  # Show last 5 grades
            print(f"  • {grade.get('subject', 'N/A')}: {grade.get('grade', 'N/A')}")
        
        # Get today's timetable
        print("\n📅 TODAY'S SCHEDULE:")
        timetable = await client.get_timetable(student_id)
        # Process and display timetable...
        
        # Get pending homework
        print("\n📝 PENDING HOMEWORK:")
        homework = await client.get_homework(student_id)
        for hw in homework[:5]:  # Show next 5 assignments
            print(f"  • {hw.get('subject', 'N/A')}: {hw.get('description', 'N/A')}")
            print(f"    Due: {hw.get('dueDate', 'N/A')}")
        
        # Get recent behavior records
        print("\n⭐ RECENT BEHAVIOR:")
        behavior = await client.get_behavior(student_id)
        for record in behavior[:3]:  # Show last 3 records
            print(f"  • {record.get('date', 'N/A')}: {record.get('description', 'N/A')}")
        
        # Get recent messages
        print("\n📧 RECENT MESSAGES:")
        messages = await client.get_conversations(skip=0, take=3)
        for msg in messages:
            print(f"  • From {msg.get('sender', 'N/A')}: {msg.get('subject', 'N/A')}")
        
        print("\n" + "=" * 50)

# Run the report
asyncio.run(generate_daily_report(
    username="YOUR_ID",
    password="YOUR_PASSWORD",
    semel="SCHOOL_CODE",
    student_id="YOUR_STUDENT_ID"
))

Advanced: Custom API Requests

For endpoints not yet wrapped, use the low-level request() method:

async def custom_api_call(client):
    """Make custom API calls to any Mashov endpoint."""
    
    # Authenticated request
    response = await client.request(
        "GET",
        "/api/custom/endpoint",
        params={"param1": "value1"}
    )
    data = response.json()
    
    # Public request (no authentication)
    response = await client.public_request(
        "GET",
        "/api/public/endpoint"
    )
    data = response.json()
    
    return data

            grades = await client.get_grades(student_id)
            return grades
            
    except MashovLoginError as e:
        print(f"Login failed: {e}")
