Rest API Endpoints:

/<dbname>/login

POST

Expects login and password as form data and returns a JSON of user ID and session to be used for subsequent requests

import requests
import json

DATABASE_NAME = 'rest'
BASE_PATH = 'http://localhost:9000/' + DATABASE_NAME

login_result = requests.post(BASE_PATH + '/login', data={'login': 'admin', 'password': 'admin'})
tryton_session = login_result.json()
print tryton_session
{u'session': u'966689963c0a4a939cb326c1451b0fe9', u'id': 1}

/<dbname>/model/<model.name>

GET

Return a list of records (Just the ID and rec_name)

Params:

  • domain: JSON serialised domain expression example: [[‘name’, ‘ilike’, ‘openlabs’]]

  • page: Integer number of the page

  • per_page: The number of records to be returned per page

  • order: JSON serialised order expression in which the records should be sorted. Ex: [(‘name’, ‘ASC’), (‘date’, ‘DESC’)]

s = requests.Session()
s.auth = (tryton_session['id'], tryton_session['session'])

# Use the session and get the list of users
print s.get(BASE_PATH + '/model/res.user').json()
{u'items': [{u'rec_name': u'Administrator', u'id': 1}]}

POST

Creates one or more records in the given model

# Create a new user
headers = {'content-type': 'application/json'}
values = [
    {'name': 'Thomas', 'login': 'thomas', 'password': 'password'},
    {'name': 'Alfred', 'login': 'alfred', 'password': 'somethingelse'},
]
users = s.post(BASE_PATH + '/model/res.user', data=json.dumps(values), headers=headers).json()
print users
{u'items': [{u'rec_name': u'Thomas', u'id': 3}, {u'rec_name': u'Alfred', u'id': 4}]}

DELETE

{u'email': None, u'name': u'Administrator', u'id': 1}

PUT

# Change the email of the user
