Project description

Upstox Auth Pro 🚀

Semantic Release PyPI version License: MIT Python Versions Downloads

Upstox Auth Pro is a high-performance, production-grade Python SDK designed to automate the Upstox OAuth2 login flow. It leverages Playwright for robust browser automation, pyotp for seamless 2FA, and a pluggable storage system for secure token management.

✨ Key Features

  • Maximum Automation: Fully automated versioning and publishing using Semantic Release.
  • Robust Browser Engine: Uses Playwright with advanced stealth configurations to bypass bot detection.
  • Intelligent PIN Entry: Dynamically handles both single-field and multi-field PIN input interfaces.
  • Auto-Retry Mechanism: Built-in retry logic with exponential backoff for transient network failures.
  • Smart Token Management: IST-aware token expiry validation (Upstox tokens expire daily at 3:30 AM IST).
  • Diagnostic Mode: Automatic screenshots on failure and comprehensive logging for easy debugging.
  • Production Ready: Clean, type-hinted API and a powerful CLI tool for rapid development.

🛠️ Requirements

  • Python: 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, or 3.12.
  • Browser: Chromium (managed automatically via Playwright).
  • Upstox API: Active App Credentials (API Key, Secret, Redirect URI).

🚀 Installation

1. Install the SDK

pip install upstox-auth-pro

2. Install Browser Dependencies

playwright install chromium

📖 Quick Start

import asyncio
from upstox_auth import FileStorage, UpstoxAuthenticator

async def main():
    # 1. Initialize the authenticator
    auth = UpstoxAuthenticator(
        api_key="YOUR_API_KEY",
        api_secret="YOUR_API_SECRET",
        redirect_uri="https://localhost:8000/callback",
        mobile_no="9876543210",
        pin="123456",
        totp_key="YOUR_TOTP_SECRET",
        storage=FileStorage("tokens/upstox_token.json"), # Auto-creates directories
        headless=True,
        retries=2 # Number of retries on transient failures
    )

    # 2. Get your access token (automatically handles login/expiry/storage)
    try:
        token = await auth.get_access_token()
        print(f"Authenticated! Token: {token[:10]}...")
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"Authentication failed: {e}")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

💻 CLI Usage

You can also use the SDK directly from your terminal. It automatically loads credentials from a .env file.

# Basic usage (returns token to stdout)
upstox-auth

# Run using python module syntax
python -m upstox_auth

# Debug mode: see the browser while it logs in
upstox-auth --visible

# Force a fresh login (bypass stored token)
upstox-auth --force --storage production_token.json

⚙️ Configuration (.env)

We recommend using a .env file for secure credential management:

UPSTOX_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
UPSTOX_API_SECRET=your_api_secret_here
UPSTOX_REDIRECT_URI=https://localhost:8000/callback
UPSTOX_MOBILE=9876543210
UPSTOX_PIN=123456
UPSTOX_TOTP_KEY=JBSWY3DPEHPK3PXP

🔍 Troubleshooting & Logging

Verbose Logs

If you encounter issues, enable logging to see the step-by-step automation:

import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)

Common Failures

  • Zscaler/Firewall: If you see "Access blocked by network filter", ensure api.upstox.com is whitelisted.
  • Selector Timeouts: On failure, a diagnostic screenshot is saved to .tmp/error_mobile_selector.png.
  • Redirect URI Mismatch: The redirect_uri must be identical to the one set in your Upstox Developer Portal (including trailing slashes).
