PyNuclino 0.2.1

Nuclino API wrapper

PyNuclino

PyNuclino is a Python client for Nuclino API.

Installation

pip3 install pynuclino

Usage

Initialize the Nuclino object with your API key (getting API key):

>>> from nuclino import Nuclino
>>> client = Nuclino('your-api-key')

Get some data:

>>> client.get_workspaces()
[<Workspace "Support">, <Workspace "Projects">, ...]
>>> client.get_teams()
[<Team "MyTeam">, <Team "TheirTeam">]
>>> client.get_items(team_id='your_team_id')
[<Item "Home office allowance">, <Collection "Leave">, <Item "Welcome!">, ...]

Objects have attributes:

>>> item = client.get_item('item_id')
>>> i1.title
'Home office allowance'
>>> i1.created_at
'2022-01-26T16:32:41.981Z'

Attribute names correspond to the JSON field names, but in Python variable format: createdAt -> created_at.

Objects also have convenience methods:

>>> team.get_workspaces()
[<Workspace "Support">, <Workspace "Projects">, ...]
>>> workspace.get_children()
[<Collection "Product FAQ">, <Collection "Canned responses">, ...]
>>> item.get_files()
[<file "6e54474a.png">, <file "c414f936.png">, ...]

You can update or delete items using Item object methods:

>>> item = client.get_item('item_id')
>>> item.update(title='New Title', content='# New content\n')
<Item "New Title">
>>> item.delete()
{'id': 'fe94a28d-6c5c-4969-9ee7-7d6433f74adf'}

Rate limiting

Nuclino API usage is currently rate limited to 150 requests per minute. PyNuclino uses ratelimit library to handle rate limiting.

Default request limit is set to 140 req/min. To change it, set the requests_per_minute init parameter:

>>> client = Nuclino('your-api-key', requests_per_minute=100)

Reference

Nuclino

Nuclino(api_key, base_url, requests_per_minute)

Nuclino is the main object that connects you to Nuclino API.

Initialization parameters:
