shlink 0.1.0

Python package for API communication with Shlink

shlink-py

Python module for API communication with Shlink

Installation

To install simply use pip:

pip install shlink

Usage

The package is used by creating a new instance of an Shlink object. API calls can then be made using methods on this object.

An example of all of the calls available is shown in the below example:

import json
import sys
from datetime import datetime
from shlink import Shlink
from shlink.data import Error

shlink = Shlink(
    url="https://example.com/",
    api_key="000000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
)

# LIST_SHORT_URLS
result = shlink.list_short_urls()
print(json.dumps(result.to_dict()))
if isinstance(result, Error):
    sys.exit(1)

# ADD_SHORT_URL
result = shlink.add_short_url(
    long_url="http://example.com/",
    tags=[
        "example"
    ],
    valid_since=datetime(2019, 3, 14),
    valid_until=datetime(2019, 3, 20),
    custom_slug="example",
    max_visits=100,
    find_if_exists=False
)
print(json.dumps(result.to_dict()))
if isinstance(result, Error):
    sys.exit(2)

# GET_SHORT_URL
result = shlink.get_short_url("example")
print(json.dumps(result.to_dict()))
if isinstance(result, Error):
    sys.exit(3)
