walacor-python-sdk 0.1.6

Python SDK for Walacor

Walacor Python SDK

Walacor Python SDK

A typed, lightweight wrapper around Walacor’s REST API for immutable provenance, schema management and (soon) data‑science transformations.

---

✨ Features

• One‑liner setup – a single WalacorService object bootstraps authentication and exposes sub‑clients (auth, schema, data, etc.)
• Pydantic models everywhere – rich typing, runtime validation and IDE autocompletion.
• Version‑safe schemas – helper methods to list, inspect and create schema blueprints.
• Composable requests – thin wrappers over requests that automatically inject Bearer tokens and headers.
• Python 3.11 + only – enjoy typing generics, | unions, match statements.

📦 Installation

From PyPI (recommended)

pip install walacor-python-sdk

From source (editable)

git clone https://github.com/walacor/python-sdk.git
cd python-sdk
pip install -e .[dev,test]

After installation, import via walacor_sdk (underscore), not the PyPI name with a dash.

from walacor_sdk import WalacorService

---

🚀 Quick Start

1 – Create a service instance

from walacor_sdk import WalacorService

wal = WalacorService(
    server="http://[walacor.instance.address/api",
    username="Admin",
    password="Password!"
)

Need to change credentials later?

wal.changeCred("new_user", "new_password")

2 – Work with schemas

from walacor_sdk.schema.models import (
    CreateSchemaRequest, CreateSchemaDefinition,
    CreateFieldRequest, CreateIndexRequest
)

schema_req = CreateSchemaRequest(
    ETId=50,    # system envelope for schemas
    SV=1,
    Schema=CreateSchemaDefinition(
        ETId=654321,
        TableName="books",
        Family="library",
        DoSummary=True,
        Fields=[
            CreateFieldRequest(FieldName="book_id", DataType="TEXT", Required=True),
            CreateFieldRequest(FieldName="title",   DataType="TEXT", Required=True)
        ],
        Indexes=[
            CreateIndexRequest(Fields=["book_id"], IndexValue="book_id")
        ]
    )
)

meta = wal.schema.create_schema(schema_req)
print("Created schema envelope:", meta.EId)

Other handy calls:

# list latest versions for every ETId
for s in wal.schema.get_list_with_latest_version():
    print(s.ETId, s.TableName)

# detailed info for a known ETId
info = wal.schema.get_schema_details_with_ETId(654321)
print(info.Fields)

3 – Use enums & constants

from walacor_sdk.utils.enums import SystemEnvelopeType
print(SystemEnvelopeType.SCHEMA.value)   # -> 50

⚙️ Error handling & logging

• Network errors raise requests.HTTPError so you can retry or surface gracefully.
• Validation errors are logged with logging.error and result in None/[] returns, never raw dictionaries.
• The SDK writes to the module‑level walacor_sdk.utils.logger logger; attach your own handler or redirect to file.

🧪 Running tests

pip install .[test]
