# seatsio-python, the official Seats.io Python client library
[](https://travis-ci.org/seatsio/seatsio-python)
This is the official Python client library for the [Seats.io V2 REST API](https://docs.seats.io/docs/api-overview), supporting python 2.7, and python 3.3 - 3.6.
## Installing
` pip install seatsio `
## Versioning
seatsio-python only uses major version numbers: v5, v6, v7 etc. Each release - backwards compatible or not - receives a new major version number.
The reason: we want to play safe and assume that each release _might_ break backwards compatibility.
## Examples
### Creating a chart and an event
`python import seatsio client = seatsio.Client(secret_key="my-secret-key") # can be found on https://app.seats.io/settings chart = client.charts.create() event = client.events.create(chart.key) `
### Booking objects
`python import seatsio client = seatsio.Client(secret_key="my-secret-key") client.events.book(event.key, ["A-1", "A-2"]) `
### Releasing objects
`python import seatsio client = seatsio.Client(secret_key="my-secret-key") client.events.release(event.key, ["A-1", "A-2"]) `
### Booking objects that have been held
`python import seatsio client = seatsio.Client(secret_key="my-secret-key") client.events.book(event.key, ["A-1", "A-2"], hold_token="a-hold-token") `
### Changing object status
`python import seatsio client = seatsio.Client(secret_key="my-secret-key") client.events.change_object_status("<EVENT KEY>", ["A-1", "A-2"], "my-custom-status") `
### Listing all charts
`python import seatsio client = seatsio.Client(secret_key="my-secret-key") charts = client.charts.list() # returns a PagedIterator object `
### Listing the first page of charts (default page size is 20)
`python import seatsio client = seatsio.Client(secret_key="my-secret-key") charts = client.charts.list_first_page() # returns a Page object `
## Error handling
When an API call results in a 4xx or 5xx error (e.g. when a chart could not be found), a SeatsioException is raised.
This exception contains a message string describing what went wrong, and also two other properties:
Errors: a list of errors (containing a code and a message) that the server returned. In most cases, this list will contain only one element.
RequestId: the identifier of the request you made. Please mention this to us when you have questions, as it will make debugging easier.
