Python asyncio library for ServiceNow

snow: Python asyncio library for ServiceNow

Snow is a simple and lightweight yet powerful and extensible library for interacting with ServiceNow. It works with modern versions of Python, utilizes asyncio and can be used for simple scripting as well as for building high-concurrency backend applications on top of the ServiceNow platform. Also, its API is fully type annotated and documented.

Example code

import asyncio

from snow import Snow
from snow.schemas.table import IncidentSchema as Incident

app = Snow("<instance>.service-now.com", basic_auth=("<username>", "<password>"))

async def main():
    # Make a TableModel object from the built-in Incident schema
    async with app.get_table(Incident) as inc:
        # Get high-priority incidents
        for response in await inc.get(Incident.priority <= 3, limit=5):
            print(f"Number: {response['number']}, Priority: {response['priority'].text}")

asyncio.run(main())

Funding

The Snow code is permissively licensed, and can be incorporated into any type of application–commercial or otherwise–without costs or limitations. Its author believes it's in the commercial best-interest for users of the project to invest in its ongoing development.

Consider leaving a donation if you like this software, it will:

• Directly contribute to faster releases, more features, and higher quality software.
• Allow more time to be invested in documentation, issue triage, and community support.
• Safeguard the future development of Snow.

Development status

The fundamental components (models, client code, error handling, documentation, etc) of the library is considered complete. However, automatic testing and real-world use is somewhat lacking, i.e. there are most likely bugs lurking about, and the software should be considered Alpha, shortly Beta.
