pypaperless 5.2.3

Little api client for paperless(-ngx).

PyPaperless

Little asynchronous client for Paperless-ngx, written in Python. You should at least use Python >=3.12.

Features

• Depends on aiohttp, works in async environments.
• Token authentication preferred (credentials possible using a URL like https://user:[e-mail])
• Request single resource items.
• Iterate over all resource items or request them page by page.
• Create, update and delete resource items.
• Add, remove and update custom fields on documents.
• Almost feature complete.
• pypaperless is designed to transport data only. Your code must organize it.

Compatibility matrix

Choosing the right version of pypaperless for your Paperless-ngx instance can be tricky. This little matrix is here to help.

pypaperless	Paperless-ngx
>= 5.2	>= 2.19
>= 5.1	>= 2.17
>= 5.0	>= 2.17
>= 4.1	>= 2.16
>= 4.0	>= 2.15
< 4.0	< 2.15

• pypaperless <4.0 is not compatible with Paperless-ngx >=2.15 due to breaking server changes.
• pypaperless >=5.0 implements date changes in the document API and is therefore not compatible with Paperless-ngx <2.17.
• pypaperless >=5.1 will drop support for all Paperless-ngx versions without the Open API schema, introduced in 2.15.
• pypaperless >=5.2 utilizes API models and data which is available as of Paperless-ngx >=2.19.

Consider keeping both Paperless-ngx and pypaperless always updated.
