salesforce-bulk-python 0.1.0

Package to communicate with Salesforce using their Bulk REST API v2.0.

Salesforce Bulk Python

Salesforce Bulk Python is a Python library for using the Salesforce REST Bulk API v2.0. It is especially designed to handle big-data worksloads, in which all data from Salesforce should be extraced.

It makes uses of asyncio for parallel execution. And is easily exendable by writing your own BulkAPIResultHandler.

How to use

1. Authentication

This library currently only supports the OAuth 2.0 JWT Bearer Flow.

connection_settings = BulkAPIConnectionSettings(
    private_key  = <KEY HERE>, # Private key to encode the JWT with (used by jwt.encode())
    consumer_key = <CONSUMER KEY HERE>, # Consumer Key Created by Connected App
    audience     = <SALESFORCE DOMAIN>, # Example: https://test.salesforce.com
    username     = <USERNAME>, # User that is assigned to the app
    api_version  = <API VERSION> # Example: v52.0
)

2. Create a connection

Create a connection by passing BulkAPIConnectionSettings into a BulkAPIConnection.

con = BulkAPIConnection(connection_settings)

3. Get a reference to an Salesforce object

# Get one object
obj = SalesforceObject('Account', con)

# or... get a List[SalesforceObject] from all objects that are compatible with the Bulk API v2.0
all_obj = list([SalesforceObject(x,con) for x in con.get_all_objects()])

4. Create an BulkAPIResultHandler and implement the handle method.

The BulkAPIResultHandler will do something with the responses from the Bulk API.

For example, we could write the responses to a Azure ADLS Gen2 Storage account:

class ADLSHandler(BulkAPIResultHandler):
    def handle(self,data):
        datetime_start = datetime.now()
        file_name = f'/salesforce/{self.job.object.name}/timestamp={datetime_start}/{self.batch_number}.csv'
        adls.raw.client.create_file(filename).upload_data(data.content,overwrite=True)

5. Create a job and register the handler

We currently only support the GetAllBulkAPIJob but you can subclass the BulkAPIJob yourself and implement a custom query method.

  # create a job
  job1 = GetAllBulkAPIJob(obj,con)
  job1.on_complete.append(ADLSHandler)

  job2 = GetAllBulkAPIJob(obj,con)
  job2.on_complete.append(ADLSHandler)

6. Execute one single job, or run multiple jobs in parralel.

# Run only one job
asyncio.run(job.start())

# Run multiple jobs in parralel
q = JobQueue(parallel_jobs=10)
q.extend([job1, job2])
asyncio.run(q.run_all())

When the jobs above are executed, the results will be passed to the handler.
