Getting Started

Basic Usage

import weglide_client
from weglide_client.rest import ApiException
from pprint import pprint

# Configure the API client
# The host defaults to https://api.weglide.org if not specified
configuration = weglide_client.Configuration(
    host="https://api.weglide.org"
)

# Create an API client instance
with weglide_client.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
    # Create an instance of an API class
    airport_api = weglide_client.AirportApi(api_client)
    
    try:
        # Get information about a specific airport
        airport_id = 161522  # Example airport ID
        api_response = airport_api.get_airport_v1_airport_id_get(id=airport_id)
        print("Airport information:")
        pprint(api_response)
    except ApiException as e:
        print(f"Exception when calling AirportApi: {e}")

Authentication

For endpoints that require authentication, you'll need to provide an API token:

import weglide_client
from weglide_client.rest import ApiException

# Configure API key authorization
configuration = weglide_client.Configuration(
    host="https://api.weglide.org",
    api_key={"Authorization": "YOUR_API_KEY"},
    api_key_prefix={"Authorization": "Bearer"}
)

# Use the authenticated client
with weglide_client.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
    # Access protected endpoints
    flight_api = weglide_client.FlightApi(api_client)
    # ...

Environment Variables

You can also configure the client using environment variables:

import os
import weglide_client

# Set environment variables
os.environ["WEGLIDE_API_URL"] = "https://api.weglide.org"
os.environ["WEGLIDE_API_KEY"] = "YOUR_API_KEY"

# Configure using environment variables
configuration = weglide_client.Configuration()
configuration.host = os.environ.get("WEGLIDE_API_URL", "https://api.weglide.org")
if "WEGLIDE_API_KEY" in os.environ:
    configuration.api_key = {"Authorization": os.environ["WEGLIDE_API_KEY"]}
    configuration.api_key_prefix = {"Authorization": "Bearer"}

Available API Endpoints

The client provides access to the following WeGlide API endpoints:

• Achievement API: Access user achievements
• Aircraft API: Manage aircraft information
• Airport API: Access airport data
• Auth API: Handle authentication
• Badge API: Access badge information
• Club API: Manage club data
• Comment API: Handle flight comments
• Competition API: Access competition data
• Flight API: Manage flight data and uploads
• User API: Manage user profiles
• Waypoint API: Access waypoint information

Examples

Fetching Flights

import weglide_client
from weglide_client.rest import ApiException

configuration = weglide_client.Configuration()
with weglide_client.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
    flight_api = weglide_client.FlightApi(api_client)
    
    try:
        # Get recent flights
        flights = flight_api.get_flights_v1_flight_get(limit=10)
        for flight in flights:
            print(f"Flight ID: {flight.id}, Pilot: {flight.user.name}, Date: {flight.date}")
    except ApiException as e:
        print(f"Exception when calling FlightApi: {e}")

Working with Airports

import weglide_client
from weglide_client.rest import ApiException

configuration = weglide_client.Configuration()
with weglide_client.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
    airport_api = weglide_client.AirportApi(api_client)
    
    try:
        # Search for airports
        airports = airport_api.search_airports_v1_airport_search_get(
            query="Munich",
            limit=5
        )
        for airport in airports:
            print(f"Airport: {airport.name}, ICAO: {airport.icao}, Elevation: {airport.elevation}m")
    except ApiException as e:
        print(f"Exception when calling AirportApi: {e}")

Testing

Run the tests using unittest:

python -m unittest discover -s test

Or using tox to test across multiple Python versions:
