REST-CLIENT

Tests

Setup a client in minutes


Installation

pip install rapid-rest-client

Usage

There are multiple options to auto-create a client. Here's using a swagger definition:

from rest_client.base import BaseUrlConfig, SwaggerApiConfiguration, Client

petstore_endpoint_config: BaseUrlConfig = BaseUrlConfig('https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/')

@SwaggerApiConfiguration(url='https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json', base_url_config=petstore_endpoint_config)
class SwaggerUrlConfiguredClient(Client):
    pass

swagger_url_configured_client = SwaggerUrlConfiguredClient()

# Client now has all paths available, as defined in the json file at url

r = swagger_url_configured_client.find_pets_by_status(status='pending')
print(r)

You can also pass the swagger definition as a dict:

@SwaggerApiConfiguration(definition={<swagger dict>}, base_url_config=petstore_endpoint_config)

Manually creating a client:

from rest_client.base import BaseUrlConfig, ApiConfiguration, RequestConfig, Client

endpoint_config: BaseUrlConfig = BaseUrlConfig('https://reqres.in/api/', 'https://sandbox.reqres.in/api/')

@ApiConfiguration(endpoints=[
    RequestConfig('users', 'list_users'),
    RequestConfig('users/{}', 'get_user'),
    RequestConfig('register', 'register_user', 'POST')
], base_url_config=endpoint_config)
class ExampleClient(Client):
    pass

This makes these methods available on ExampleClient

  • list_users
  • get_user
  • register_user
client = ExampleClient()
list_users_response = client.list_users()
get_user_response = client.get_user(3)
register_user_response = client.register_user(email="eve.holt@reqres.in", password="pistol")

If you want to customize a method, you can simply add methods to a client. Use the endpoint decorator to do that:

from rest_client.base import endpoint, Client

class ExampleClient(Client):
    @endpoint('users', 'list_users')
    def list_users(self, **kwargs):
        return self._request(kwargs)

You can also create the client from json, or a dict:

from rest_client.base import DictApiConfiguration, BaseUrlConfig, Client

endpoint_config: BaseUrlConfig = BaseUrlConfig('https://reqres.in/api/')

@DictApiConfiguration(endpoints=[{
    'path': 'users',
    'name': 'list_users',
}], base_url_config=endpoint_config)
class MyClient(Client):
    pass

Authentication

You can pass custom authentication through the authentication_handler property. Authentication handlers should extend AuthBase from requests.auth

For example:

from rest_client.base import BaseUrlConfig, ApiConfiguration, RequestConfig, Client, BearerTokenAuth

auth_endpoint_config: BaseUrlConfig = BaseUrlConfig('https://gorest.co.in/public/v1/')

@ApiConfiguration(
    endpoints=[
        RequestConfig('users', 'register_user', 'POST'),
    ],
    base_url_config=auth_endpoint_config)
class AuthClient(Client):
    pass

auth_client = AuthClient(
    authentication_handler=BearerTokenAuth('token')
)

Please note:

This is a work in progress and completely new. Contributions are very welcome.
