• Response parsing into Python dictionaries with normalized numeric fields

Installation

Local development

pip install -e .

From GitHub (after publishing)

pip install git+https://github.com/jakevdub/qrz-logbook-client.git

Quick Start (Recommended)

from qrz_logbook_client import QRZClient

client = QRZClient(
    api_key="YOUR-QRZ-API-KEY",
    user_agent="MyCoolUploadScript.py/1.0.0 (YOUR-CALLSIGN)",
)

# STATUS
status_response = client.status()
print(status_response)

# INSERT
adif = "<band:3>20m<mode:3>SSB<call:8>CALLSIGN<qso_date:8>20260322<station_callsign:13>YOUR-CALLSIGN<time_on:4>1830<eor>"
insert_response = client.insert_record(adif)
print(insert_response)

# FETCH (paged)
fetch_response = client.fetch_records(limit=250, offset=0)
print(fetch_response.get("COUNT"), fetch_response.get("LOGIDS"))

# DELETE
delete_response = client.delete_record([123456789])
print(delete_response)

Convenience Function Style

from qrz_logbook_client import setup, fetch_records

setup(
    api_key="YOUR-QRZ-API-KEY",
    user_agent="MyCoolUploadScript.py/1.0.0 (YOUR-CALLSIGN)",
)

response = fetch_records(limit=100, offset=0)
print(response)

Notes

• QRZ requires a specific and identifiable User-Agent value.
• Do not use generic values like python-requests or node-fetch.
• Some QRZ actions require a paid subscription.
